Peta's brother Sean sent a wonderful Christmas present of Elk Sausage with Madiera (along with other treats about which we will blog as we cook them). Jim boiled the sausages until the water was gone and then let them brown and deglazed with even more Madiera. So tasty!
He whipped up some Creamed Spinach as cooked by Emeril. Yeah, yeah, Emeril's a donkey and we that, for once, he'd take it down a notch. But it's hard to find a recipe that doesn't involve milk which Jim cannot eat due to the whole lactose thing (TMI!!!). Emeril uses cream. Muuuuch better, and dirtier!

Opening sentence should perhaps have read "Peta's most excellent brother, Sean of London....". But for brevity, 'Sean' will have to do.
ReplyDeleteI found you guys because of your post last night on the Rex Parker blog.
ReplyDeleteMy husband has all kinds of food allergies/restrictions. So, a little suggestion: In lieu of cream, try blended cashew. It really works: http://www.oprah.com/food/Cashew-Cream
I wanted to make sure: I know a Jim Sweeney who is a professor at Stanford. That's not you, is it?
Oh cool! I didn't even think about that connection to Rex. Love that blog.
ReplyDeleteJust did a recipe on an Indian eggplant dish with cashew cream. Sooo good. We posted about Ajanta (the restaurant and cook book), but I don't think that we posted about our second Indian feast cooking.
I was a Stanford student and had a couple meetings with Jim Sweeney, the prof. Very confusing.
