Thank you, Sharon and Maryann!! - cjs - 04-01-2007 Sharon mentioned a breaded pork chop dish that is marinated in Asian flavors that she made a while back and in her honor since she will become a landlubber with the rest of us after today, I'm making it for dinner. And, to go with it, Maryann's White Bean Tuna Salad - http://www.forums.cuisineathome.com/ubbt...part=2&vc=1 but...it may not make it to dinner!! I also have a loaf of 18 hour bread in the oven right now and after I put the salad together and tasted it, it just cried out for a loaf of peasant bread....and this was tasting it before the argula and basil had been added. It's a wonderful combination of flavors. I don't like to do this, and I apologize Maryann, but I didn't have tuna in oil, so to get some nicely flavored oil to use, I added a jar of artichokes - I really try to make them the first time as written, but....boy, is this a winner and it will probably ruin our dinners when the bread comes out!! Re: Thank you, Sharon and Maryann!! - Mare749 - 04-01-2007 Jean, I'm glad you like the salad and that you thought of a way to get some tasty oil in there. I found a very good tuna in olive oil at Trader Joe's called Tonno, or Genova, something like that. It has a gold label. Anyway, it's especially good for a dish like that. It's also good with fresh tuna, marinaded in olive oil, wine, & garlic, then grilled. I'm not always very good at selecting wine, what kind of wine would you serve with that? Maryann Re: Thank you, Sharon and Maryann!! - cjs - 04-02-2007 Well, we certainly enjoyed ourselves...didn't get much work done after our snack... http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y72/cjdacook/BEANSALAD.jpg Roy thought the clock ought to be included...this was so good. The wine we had with it was a Washington wine - Goose Ridge Vineyards, Vireo, Red Wine (a blend of Cab 42%, Merlot 25%, and Syrah 33%) and it was very tastey with the salad. You might just look for the blend in your area. Dinner, which not much got eaten ( ), was very good - those porkchops, can't have very often, they are deep fried, but oh so yummy. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y72/cjdacook/PORKTWO.jpg I'm too cheap to throw much away and the goop in the bottom of the marinade bowl looked so good, so after the chops were egged, coated and deepfried ( ), I combined the three and added a little more flour/panko and made little fritters out of them. Yum, they were good too. (they're the little really dark goodies - by then my oil was pretty hot, and I didn't want them gummy, so a little over cooked.... Roy asked me to pass along his thanks to you and Sharon both, for such a great day of eating!!! Re: Thank you, Sharon and Maryann!! - Mare749 - 04-02-2007 Nice photos! Looks delish! Maryann |
