    We are going to Nigeria tonight (well, at least in the kitchen): Nigerian Goat Stew Joloff Rice Dodo (fried plantains) Lemon streusel muffins for dessert (couldn't be further from Nigerian, though!).

    We are grilling again: Thai Chile Shrimp Rosemary Balsamic Marinated Grilled Mushrooms Corn on the cob (grilling first for the char then creaming it with roasted red peppers, etc.) Fresh sheep cheese from a local farm drizzled with our best olive oil from Croatia scattered with fresh herbs from the garden Grilled nectarines with peppered creme fraiche

    We like butter a little too much at our house. Last time butter went on sale from $5.99/lb to $3.99/lb we bought 25 lb of the stuff. Thankfully we have two large freezes in addition to our two fridge freezers! A lot for only two of us, I know. We can be gluttons at times...

    I am house/dogsitting in the country this weekend so made a big pot of chili and rice and cornbread to take out there so we don't have to use others' utensils, etc. Pretty boring on my side of things as well tonight... Oh. And some minted peas.

    As we have a lobe of gorgeous duck foie gras we are having: Pate de Foie Gras with Cucumber Gelee (takes hours so I'd better get moving!) Black Truffled Pureed Potatoes Micro Greens (from the garden) including tiny beet leaves, radicchio, sorrel, arugula, radish leaves, mustard, frisee with Citrus Honey Thyme Vinaigrette Preserved Lemon Granita (as...

    Yum. Sounds like you're in for a treat!
  8. love2travel
    Oh, man. I LOVE that stuff! Haven't made it for ages.
  9. love2travel
    You brush it on raw then broil. I like maple syrup best as it remains ooey gooey and sticky.

    Yes, but maybe I shouldn't have laughed THAT much!
  11. love2travel
    Sorry to laugh at that but I secretly am inside. ( ) On your honeymoon? Oh, dear. I have never had proper authentic rijsttafel. Were you actually able to taste food or did you mainly feel the heat?

    I bet your ex has not made the same mistake since! Once when I was home from work from lunch (I was young and thought I was invincible - my, how times have changed! ) I decided to skip wearing gloves and chopped habaneros for a salsa I would be making that evening. Well, that was not the smartest decision I've made. For some unknown reason (blame...

    I'll send you smoked dried peppers from that latin market if you would like me to. They flavor was remarkable and I bet you could do amazing things with them. There were other smoked and fresh peppers there, not sure how the fresh peppers would do with shipping. If you'd like me to do that, send me your address.

    I got 11 mangos today, food heaven!

    It's awesome! Oh, yes. Also good brushed with melted guava or plum jelly. If you try it, report back!

    An entire room lined with shelves plus shelves downstairs. At any given time I probably have at least 50 different kinds of interesting condiments and preserves (I make most), 85 spices, truffle paste, lots of vanilla beans, etc. I often open my pantry just to look and I am not kidding. It is like an international specialty food store! People actually...

    I am a chili pepper FANATIC. Whenever friends travel to the US or Mexico they know without asking to bring back whatever they can find. It is almost like a collection! Some of my favourites are mulato, chipotle (dried jalapeno), ancho (dried poblano), cascabel, guajillo, aleppo... I toast them on dry heat, grind in my M&P or grinder and use in rubs...

    Since there are some bacon fans here, has anyone tried brushing bacon with something sweet such as maple syrup and roasting in the oven? Lovely - sort of like bacon candy. Also good sprinkled with black pepper and pomegranate molasses.

    Juniper Brined Pork Loin with Guava Ancho Glaze Wild Mushroom and Fresh Herb Risotto Steamed Green Beans It is chilly here today so am going to do some baking. Not sure what yet...

    Sparkling Roasted Vanilla Lemonade The Real Greek Salad Brandy Deviled Eggs It's hot today. Ick.

    OK, upon reconsideration, you can move here without shoveling our snow for six months of the year. Maybe we could just make pizza together instead!!
  22. love2travel
    Would this suffice? It is delicious. And easy peasy. http://www.bigoven.com/recipe/14205/white-pizza

    Your marrow story is both funny and painful - I understand what you mean! Why give it to a dog when a human is perfectly willing to have it? Although our precious dog who died 1 1/2 years ago was like our daughter - I would have given her marrow, foie gras - whatever she wanted. I spoiled her a wee bit. What did you decide to do for tonight? Leftovers...

    Consider it done! All we have to do is sell our house, ask my husband to quit his awesome job and leave the country. I have a feeling that the climate in California would be slightly better than ours in Alberta!

    Pork Shoulder Braised in Spicy Sweet Balsamic Sauce Baked Onion Rings Buttermilk Chive Smashed Potatoes Garden Peas with Crispy Sage Am considering making pavlova with basil simple syrup for dessert.
