Congee, December 26th

I thought it would be good to sooth our stomachs after roast beef and turkey dinners. It took all day, making the chicken stock from scratch with kafir lime leaves and lemongrass and finishing it off with(in hindsight maybe a little too much) ginger. Then we took some of the leftover roast beef along with fresh sauteed spinach and green onion.
Delicious and not too heavy.

A little muscle, a little steak

A thing about muscles. Never cut off the oxygen flow to the muscles before you cook them. Don't twist the bag or tie the top off. Get them to put a scoop of ice in the bag and then just leave it open. Let them breathe...

We had Steak Moules Frites and spinach salad with organic dried cranberries, goat cheese and pecans.

Nathan brought Treatza Pizza for dessert! Thanks DQ! Thanks Nathan!

We decided to count this as a 4/40 even though in was really a 2/40. We counted ourselves. Because we are a little behind. Let's see how many we can get done during the festive season!

I am urging Kevin to have a pork & sake night!
