2014 - Week 19 Cooking Results

Ramp and Sausage Risotto (Blue GateCrooked Gap)

This is very good.  I doubled the recipe (had a whole pound of sausage) and maybe didn't have enough ramps, but it was good stuffs.

Penne with Ricotta and Spring Garlic Sauce (Cleverley Farms)

Maybe a bit garlicky, but maybe I added more garlic than was required.  That being said, it was a good way to highlight the spring garlic.  I don't know if I'd make it again though.

Ham Steak and Mashed Potatoes and Spring Garlic

Good combination.  I didn't really want to disturb my chives before the blossoms come out (and got cut off, shared or eaten), but this worked out great.  That ham was good too, and with a salad made for a nice round meal.

Pork Burgers (Crooked Gap)

yay!  this is what I wanted.  A double helping of pork (ground and bacon), a bit of cheese and some good bread.

Chorizo Tacos (Crooked Gap)

I fell into the random holiday trap, and it was still good.  I think the chorizo was a bit spicier than the last time around, but still not up to the level that one would like.  Still pretty good over all.
