The fresh produce in French markets in summer is inspiring. The abundance of fruit and vegetables the warm weather brings makes creating vegetarian recipes easy. You can spread tomatoes in a light pastry case and cover them with goat’s cheese for a crunchy tomato tart, or layer vegetables in a baking dish with garlic and herbs and create a Provençal Vegetable Gratin. There are risottos, crêpes, vegetable tagines and, of course, the world famous ratatouille. France often gets a bad press when it comes to vegetarian food, but this is changing and it is now often found on menus in brasseries.
