Brined Pork Chops
December 29th, 2007 by dinner
This is a glorious way to eat pork chops, very tasty, tender and juicy. The important thing is to not over brine them, so salt concentration and timing is everything. The chops are grilled and as you see the grill lines really stand out on the chops, the chops were finished with a mustard/maple syrup sauce and s
erved with broccolini and couscous with grilled peppers.

Turkey pot pie
October 9th, 2007 by dinner
The usual turkey pot pie, but with a twist, I pan fried some thinly sliced potato and used that for the topping instead of the regular mashed potatoes, adds lots of taste and some crunch besides the pie crust.

Beef Tenderloin Experiment
September 21st, 2007 by dinner
A nice beef tenderloin, crusted with a goat cheese and herb mixture, with some mashed potatoes and baby summer squash and caramelized onions maple syrup and white wine. As an experiment the goat cheese crust was OK, a compound butter would have been much better.
