Menu for Week of March 1st

Last week was New Orleans week ... not my favorite week. The food is growing on me (and last week's gumbo was pretty delicious), but its still more of a "Jon-week." So this week was an "Audrey-week." I'll call it "California ethnic." I focused on four of my favorite California ethnic cuisines - Iranian, Jewish (...sort of a cuisine), Asian (broadly), and Mexican (also broadly).

Saturday - Homemade Sushi

Sunday - Tah Chin (Persian Rice Casserole)

Menu: Is it spring yet?

OK, this winter thing is getting a bit old. This was eat-down-the-freezer week, 'cuz once fresh food is available again, it won't be a high priority.

Saturday: We team-cooked with Joe and Erin on a quest for a tasty, fancy pescetarian mean. We ended up with Jose Andres' Tuna Stew with an olive oil and egg yolk foam.

Monday: Shrimp and grits with turnips

Menu for the week of Feb 24

This week we wanted tasty, and easy to prepare ahead of time, so we went with a levantine theme:

Lamb Tagine with Apricot couscous

Brick Chicken with Zereshk Polo

Fattoush Salad with fried chickpeas
