As I've stated before, on several occasions actually, my family does food. Mother is a chef instructor, Father runs a food ministry and I work in the industry, we have a black sheep, but shes a foodie despite going for an engineering degree so we tend to forgive her. This combination of minds can sometimes lead to holiday or other meals becoming unique... a prime example would have been last Sunday's Easter Late Lunch, early dinner... Linner...
Did I mention that my father recently decided that curing meats was the new family hobby, No? Well trust me I'm not against this at all. We (meaning he) cured the hams for the Easter Meal, we also had a duck that was stuffed with Kamut (a grain from the middle east), figs, and sausage; a Rabbit Porcetta that was herb rubbed and fired in a hot oven giving it a lovely crispy golden skin; Asparagus lightly sauteed with good olive oil and red pepper flakes; Scalloped potatoes with butter, cream and fresh grated Cheese; and a blackberry crisp that was perfect with a scoop of Vanilla bean Ice cream.
Hungry yet? Well here Under the Arch we might be proud of our restaurants and shops... but then again what can really beat a well done meal made with love for friends and family to enjoy together? Recipes are forthcoming from this meal... maybe for when I'm hungry again... like Thanksgiving...
