What's on everyone's menu for today?
I'm not going to fight the snow around the grill, so guess I'll in-house grill some Hawaiian beef strips and make a new recipe from F&W, White Beans with Onion Confit.
Retired and having fun writing cookbooks, tasting wine and sharing recipes with all my friends.

I have no idea. I think I'll look back through the dinner threads and see what sounded good over the past weeks.

Everything we were supposed to have last night - lemon dill chicken, asparagus and baked potatoes. We wound up ordering pizza at the last minute.

We are having an "Ice Day", so we are stuck at home. Luckily, I bought the fixings for a pot roast yesterday. And, I have an 18 hr bread experiment on the go.If tomorrow's Bridal show is cancelled due to the ice, we can eat all the cake balls.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

Tonight it's Pad Thai, but not the recipe from the new issue. My wife chose a recipe from issue #13(1999)instead. It's with chicken and no tamarind. I'm making an appetizer for lunch- Steak Rumaki w/ bourbon vanilla sauce.

I have chicken breasts marinating in Italian dressing that I will bake in the oven later. Also have some stale rye bread to make croutons, so it will be my own version of a chicken caesar salad.

We're having steak with ancho-red pepper sauce and toasted goat cheese. I'm not sure what I'll do for a side.

Just wanted to add that I made up Jean and Lorraine's favorite caesar dressing. Wow, forgot how great this is!

Caesar Salad
By: Cuisine at Home
Serve 10
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 teaspoons garlic -- minced
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
Whisk in
1/4 cup Parmesan cheese -- grated
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon anchovy paste
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup olive oil
Toss with
10 cups romaine lettuce - chopped
Mash garlic and salt together with the flat side of a knife blade until it forms a paste. The coarse grains of kosher salt help break the garlic down to a paste. Be sure to work on a steady cutting board. Whisk remaining ingredients together with the garlic paste until combined. Toss the romaine with the dressing just before serving.
