Roasted Duck with Cherry Balsamic Glaze

Monday, May 26, 2008

Mmmm….duck, another meal I should not have made right before the wedding. It’s just so delicious though. I also find that whole duck is often over-cooked, or I just prefer under-cooked, whichever way you want to look at it but I don’t like dry meat. This preparation yields a very moist little duck, and it’s relatively easy for such an impressive looking dinner. It’s perfect for a romantic dinner for two if you’ve been dating long enough not to care about being a little messy.

Pasta Tasting – Course 1: Wilted Spinach and Tomato Orzo Salad

Saturday, May 3, 2008

Tomorrow, I’m riding in the NYC Bike Tour with a group of friends. So tonight, I had them over for a preparatory pasta dinner. The idea is to have pasta so I decided on a three course pasta tasting. The first course would be a salad, yet still a pasta, but proportionately heavier on the vegetables because two more pasta courses would follow.

Wilted Spinach and Tomato Orzo Salad

  • 4 oz dry Whole Wheat Orzo
  • 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 10 ounce package of pre-washed spinach
  • 3 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
  • 2 generous pinches of salt
  • 6 Campari Tomatoes, cut into 6-8 wedges each
  • 2 teaspoon good Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoons Aged Cherry Flavored Balsamic (from O & Co.)
  • 3 tablespoons garlic cream (from the potato post)
  • Salt and Pepper to taste
