Then There's This /Tasty Thursday

Tasty Thursday

Breakfast one day last week apparently was pretty good when Ron sent me a photo of it before finishing it off.

Gluten Free Cinnamon Raisin Bread conformed to French Toast last week. This is before syrup and butter were added. But guess what. It's not French.

What I'd like to do is share a list of French Cuisine I'd like to make in the future.

Here's a beginning list. 

Crème brûlée

Éclair(These first 2 speak on their own)

Macaron (not to be confused with Macaroon)

Ratatouille (I hope you know what this is)

Hachis Parmentier (French Shepherds Pie)

Gigot D Agneau Pleureur

(translation: Lamb cooked over potatoes)

Tartiflette (Potatoes, bacon, melted cheese, onion. Enough said)

Quiche Lorraine (the French like bacon)

For the record, we've already made Cordon Bleu. No pictures. sorry. 

What You Need To Know /Tasty Thursday

This Tasty Thursday, What you need to know in this picture is not the French,

it's the French Chef, 

Paul Bocuse.

Google, do your thing and Explain to the people about the Godfather of Chefs.

What you need to know about this early Christmas present isn't that it's new,

it's the creme dele creme of cast iron cocotte.

Used by world reknown chefs.

What my mama will call 

'that fancy Dutch oven'.

And it Will be initiated this evening.

And what you need to know in this hastily written recipe isn't the ingredients,

But the Instruction,

"Don't stir".

And What is in the recipe is enhanced by this ingredient.

The secret's out.

Here's the side dish you won't be ashamed of,

Spanish Rice.

It cooked so evenly, it was criminal.

Coming from a wife of a retired narcotics officer, 

This. Is. Serious.

If you MusT have a recipe, 

this is a decent one. 

And Remember,

"A messy kitchen is a 

Sign of Happiness"
