whats cooking at your house?
I've been practicing for the September edition of my show, so Osso Bucco with risotto again tonight.
The meat is the easy part. Getting every grain of rice in the risotto to cook to perfect al dente at the same time is the hard part. Hence the constant practice....
with those ingredients you could also make a nice fish soup or stew to go with the salad.I didn't think there would be so much fish left over from the flounder I cooked last night. It was pretty small. So tonight I think I'll make some fish salad with the leftovers. I have some celery, some more baby leeks, cucumber, maybe some summer squash. sounds pretty tasty....

oooh, I just read what you posted. I think I'm coming to your place.
sorry i was thinking a cold fish soup. i thought there was such a thing i guess i am wrong.sure, but the fish doesn't want to be cooked any more, and besides, it is a hot summer day.
I wish it was raining here... it's hotter than a "you know what."good afternoon. my stuffed peppers are in the process. still raining.
yup except i cut them in half!! you inspired me (and the fact that my dd slammed them on the table and cracked 2!! LOL)I wish it was raining here... it's hotter than a "you know what."
Stuffed peppers sound good. How are you making yours... like you said you normally do?
I had a french bread pizza for lunch, so I'm not having any dinner... it's too warm. Mark is getting a big salad.
You know, it's a funny thing.
Classic Osso Bucco is supposed to be done with veal shank. I have done the recipe four times in the last two weeks, twice with veal, twice with plain old beef shanks. Maybe my palette has become dull from too many cigarettes and too much beer, but I really can't find enough of a difference to justify 3-4x the price...
