Simply a thread for those of us who like to cook. What's on the menu for tonight?
Here at the E residence it's roasted chicken stuffed with onions, garlic, lemon, salt and pepper. I tied the wings and legs together, draped strips of bacon (you can't go wrong with bacon) over the breasts, and drizzled with olive oil, salt, pepper, and some thyme. Roasting along with it is yukon gold potatoes, rosemary, salt, pepper, and olive oil. And I just put in some herbed mushrooms. Considering roasting some broccoli, too.
I'd really like to know who is cooking and what they are cooking?
E | That's the second recipe you've posted (at least that I've read) that sounded amazing!I am VERY much into cooking, and I like a lot of the same kind of American comfort foods that you mention. My specialty is meatballs and tomato sauce, which is an ages-old recipe handed down for generations in my family (my ancestors are form Italy and Sicily). But the recipes I keep going back to are things like homemade noodles and beef stew, braised pot roast or loin of pork with caramelized carrots and yes, Yukon gold potatoes!Tonight I had leftovers, but it was my own chicken parmigiana made with my sauce, chicken breast dipped in egg and breaded with parmigiana cheese and breadcrumbs, sizzled in some oil, topped with shredded mozzarella, bake in the oven for a bit and served with rigatoni. |
Man alive, the chicken parmigiana sounds good. Mine is just something I made up, but probably pales by comparison. Love to get the recipe someday when you have time.

One of my favorite things to make is out of a cookbook we have from Mario Batali - veal ossobuco (often times we use lamb), shanks which are braised for hours in the oven and served over a creamy risotto.

Well done, Pat! Ossobuco, a Milanese speciality, is originally made with veal shank, and served with saffron risotto made with the marrow contained in the bone. The shanks of other animals, such as lamb or turkey, doesn't usually hold the same kind of rich, creamy marrow you can find in veal or beef shanks. These days I'm looking forward to finding authentic Roman artichokes (big and rounded as a fist, the best quality available), which I'll braise in extra-virgin olive oil (the only oil I use), white wine and garlic, with a sprinkling of dried mint leaves. In Rome we generally use a variety of mint that grows wild in the fields, but ordinary mint is perfectly OK (much better than parsley - try it and see the difference!). Those artichokes cook to melt-in-your-mouth tenderness, and are wonderful eaten either hot or at room temperature. They're also quite expensive, but worth every eurocent!

^^^ My wife would absolutely love that artichoke recipe. Too bad I didn't know you when she and I were in Rome! The ossobuco is probably the most "authentic" of the Italian food we make; I also like making Italian seafood/pasta dishes like "frutti di mari" or some such. If only we could walk to an authentic gelateria after such a meal. However, it's almost March 17, which means corned beef, carrots, potatoes, and Guinness for this Irish-American!

DS, where have you been? Seems like a long time since I've seen you around.
Can't go wrong with shrimp and salmon. Especially shrimp. I could eat my body weight in those little guys.
