I just finished off a plate of oven-baked salmon in a soy/honey/lime glaze, pan-seared asparagus cooked in butter, and pilaf rice with my second bottle of '11 Dancer les Corbins.

Those are some beautiful steaks!

My wife is from Mew Mexico and was raised in that hatch chili culture, we always have them in the freezer. Anyway I made green chili and Asiago potato soufflé to pair with whole chicken breast grilled fajita style.
If there are any chili-heads out there these were "little johns" so medium high heat.

Oven at 325 till internal temp made about 115. Then cast iron pan searing top, bottom and all around the sides. I might go opposite order next time. I got the 10 oz ones which is a chunk of meat. Have to have some low temp time before or after the sear.

Not just his short ribs, but a number of other dishes he has posted here. Makes me drool....more than I normally do without food.

And those pictures are outstanding. Brian, what do you take your pictures with?

I have to umpire tonight so its pot cooking time.
Grillades and grits with collard greens flavored with cooked down pork ribs.
Since I'll be out, likely no pictures.

You know your wife is from this part of the country when she walks in and says something smells good. Only a true daughter of our south Alabama creole country would think that Roux and collards cooking would smell good. Cause aint nothing like that collard stink.

Tegame di Vernazzia. This is a dish composed of the following layers: olive oil, potato slices, paper-thin sliced onion with minced garlic, anchovy fillets, parsley and rosemary, San Marzano tomato strips with juice, olive oil, more potatoes, more onion and garlic, more anchovies, more parsley and rosemary, more tomatoes, more olive oil, more potatoes, more parsley and rosemary, more tomatoes, more olive oil. The anchovies practically dissolved while the dish is baking. Be sure to have some bread to sop up the sauce.

Sounds like a lot of EVOO. I'm surprised it doesn't show that way in the plating.

Last night was a simple Linguine with EVOO, pressed garlic, fresh cherry tomatoes, fresh basil and roasted chicken breast.

So do you just cook the veggies in lime, like you would when making ceviche?

#32 Post by **Brad B a l l i n g e r** » March 15th, 2016, 8:33 am

Brian, total EVOO was about 1/4-1/3 cup for a 1.5 quart gratin dish. I failed to get a photo of the plate after finishing the tegame. It took 3-4 baguette slices to sop it all up. Not that I'm complaining.

Yes, and some salt. Takes all day. Basically a light pickling.
