Linguine with Hot Chile, Caramelized Onions, and Gremolata
This turend into a sort of garbage pasta, cleaning out the fridge...Maybe I'll make this right sometime.
Ramp and Sausage Risotto
It has been a while since I've made risotto, and this turned out really well. I was supposed to use the chopped greens near the end to add extra flavor, but even so it was a nice balance between the Crooked Gap Italian sausage, the ramps and the creamy rice flavor. It was a nice use of probably the only ramps I'll be able to get this season.
Spring Vegetable & Potato Frittata (modified, spring onions)
I skipped the asparagus and the garlic and onion and just did a lot of spring onions and some potatoes. It came together quickly and tasted very good. Finished off with a little broiling and we ate away.
Brazilian Chicken Salad Sandwich
I skipped the beets, because I didn't think I could get them beyond Shannon, and as I went upstairs to make it, the only thing she had to say was a warning not to go heavy on the dill. Luckily for me, there was no dill in here, so it worked out. The salad itself was ok, maybe it would've been better with the beets, or a bit more spice or something. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't that good.
Pork Burgers
I combined the pork with some of the leftover Italian Sausage and it added a nice bit of spice to the remaining pork. It made for a good burger. Even though I hadn't ran out, it's nice to be able to buy it again from Crooked Gap.
Brats with AgriCulture Sauerkraut (new vendor, awful web presence)
The sauerkraut was good. I'm not the biggest fan of sauerkraut so I really wouldn't be able to judge it completely, but if I needed it, I'd prefer this over some of the others that I've used as an ingredient in the past.
