Lastnight’s menu was like an edible poem…
Walnut Pesto
Asparagus soldiers w/ soft-boiled egg; Matt’s homemade sourdough english muffins; yukon gold potatoes. Sunday mornin’ rock and roll breakfast!
Substituting red chard for lacinato kale in my soup today…it’s so pretty, it’s gotta be great, right?
Whole wheat sour dough loaves.
Matt’s first attempt at making duck confit. Going into the fridge for over a month. I have to say this does not look appetizing to me. But I also have to say I admire him for trying this. Apparently it’s a delicacy…?
Curried Carrot Soup
Matt’s Pear Napoleon
Matt’s sourdough…he’s obtained the holy grail of baking bread this time.
Meat Sauce simmering away…
