This time it was dinner at our farmhouse with Walt and Marcia Carpenter. They arrived with an appetite around 4pm having biked the Madison County bike path (25 miles!) We started with pork rillettes that I had made early in the week. This is cubed shoulder (butt) of pork cooked slowly in chicken stock and lard with secret spices. Served with sweet/sour onions and toasted bread , and a Trimbach 1992 Gewurtztraminer.
Walt and Marcia brought a penne pasta to start with italian sausage in a wine sauce. Delicious. Main course were quails that Mark had hunted last fall - grilled over coals in the WFO, and served with a fennel and apple salad. Dessert was a fig, hazelnut and yoghurt tart. Wish I had biked 25 miles. A great night.
