So I decided to get a healthy cookbook and randomly cook my way through it... found one of my favorite people, got his book, set my mind to it... now I am in over my head haha
So last night for dinner I made fish cakes with anchovy dressing... it actually turned out much better than it sounded. I had to make a small substitution because it alls for two types of fish and they only had one... so i just doubled the one... and one of the spices I have never heard of they only had dry not freash so i still went with it...
but i had a question, what do you guys do when you find a recipe that calls for something you have never heard of. I live in a smaller town and I called the butcher yesterday to ask about poussin... cause I had never heard of it, and neither had he... with a google search I learned what it was, but i'll never be able to get that around here. I will probably just use quail or chicken... but is that cheating?
