« What 50 bucks will buy you | Main | Trans fats nudged out » Tuesday, January 2, 2007Full to bursting three days laterOur New Year's Eve menu. The portions were small (honestly!). The flutes were not empty for long:
We began with homemade crackers, served with crudites and sliced French feta on a stunning Italian platter that was in my Christmas stocking:
At the table, we had eggs en cocotte with a dot of wild salmon caviar:
The main course was pork shanks, also known as stinco:
With fregola, a Sicilian couscous:
Then salad, with rosettes of mache lettuce and my new favorite vinegar made with cava. Finally, an old favorite -- hot milk cake:
Sables, the little buttery French cookies (the recipe will be in a magazine column this month):
And stuffed dates:
One of the guests brought Garrison chocolates from Providence, which we nibbled with wild mint tea. Menu for the month: club soda, lots of steamed vegetables, turkey breast, more club soda. Happy New Year! Posted by Sheryl Julian at 10:59 AM
