<u>Pickled beets<o:p></o:p></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
3 lb beets</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1 cup white vinegar</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

1 tsp caraway</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
a few cloves and allspices</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Wrap the beets in foil and bake for 1 1/2 hours. When they
are cool, peel and cut into 3/4" cubes, and pickle in 1 part sugar to 2
parts vinegar. (I used the end of 3 bottles of vinegar, apple cider, rice, and
white wine) Add the spices to the sugar and vinegar, bring to a boil and cook
over a low heat for about 10 minutes, let cool a little and pour over the
beets. I let this sit for a day, but longer would be even better.</div>

1/4 lb blue cheese, crumbled</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Dissolve the mustard in the lemon juice, and mix with other
ingredients. Have a light hand when stirring so the blue cheese doesn't clump
together again.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
1/3 cup pecans</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
just before serving, pour and spoon half the dressing onto
the greens, and toss. Sprinkle with 1/6 cup pecans. Remove the beets from their pickling juice and arrange on
top. Pour remaining dressing over
and top with remaining pecans.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<u>Notes:<o:p></o:p></u></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This started out as a traditional beet salad, maybe from
Fannie Farmer, with pickled beets on a green salad, updated towards the typical
modern beet salad</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The roasting gives a slightly smoky flavor, but I'm not sure
that much is left after pickling. Probably boiling would be almost as good.
Most similar recipes call for arugula. I love arugula, but the arugula was
expensive and not that good, so I decided to try the endive instead, which also
has a nice bitter flavor. Watercress, dandelion greens, regular endive,
radicchio, or escarole should also work.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
You can also cut the beets in 1/4 to 1/3 inch slices (maybe
cutting them in halves or quarters if they are large), and pickle them with similar
slices of onions. In this case, omit the scallions.</div>

We've been trying to figure out interesting ways to use them and this is one Haakon came up with. Have any other ideas? Leave a comment bellow.<br />
<br />
He used the <a href="http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Candied-Grapefruit-Peel-104425">Epicurious recipe</a> and made a couple variations, one with a sugar coating and one diped in chocolate. The chocolate pairs really well with the grapefruit, with a pretty complex interplay of different tastes. It's pretty awesome.<br />
<br />
My next idea is to melt the dark chocolate and use some of my szechuan pepper infused vodka to add a spicy numbing sensation to the chocolate. <br />
<br />
This and some other really awesome desserts were brought to the table this Christmas feast.<br />

I wish I had three stomachs because everything looked so good. If you want the quintessential Jewish deli experience this is the place to go. <br />
<br />
I decided on the pastrami Russ-- pastrami cured salmon with sauerkraut and spicy mustard on a bagel. It was so good I basically licked the paper when I was done. <br />
<br />
My only regret is that I didn't have more room so I could stop next door and get a knish from Yonah Schimmel's knishery. Oh well. Next time New York. <br />
<br />
Great food this trip readers-- once Justin forwards me the menu from the place we ate at last night I'll fill you in on the delicious cheese soaked wonder that was our dinner (spoiler-- it includes beef hearts and avocado potato salad.)<br />
<br />
<br />
Check out Russ and Daughters yourself-- 179 East Houston Street. New York, NY 10002. It's worth the trip. <br />

We couldn't find tenderloin so we had to use chuck tenderloin so it wasn't as tender as it could have been. Still great with the cheese though. <br />

<br />
<br />
Then he went on to make a minimal but delicious veggie treat: brussel sprouts and sundried tomatoes sautéed in balsamic vinegar and sriracha. To be served with ricotta cheese on the side (sorry guys, didn't get a picture of the final dish just the in process shot.<br />
<br />
Stay tuned for some backlog posts-- New York has been a whirlwind of new food and cooking, and I haven't yet had time to write and post about it all yet. But soon!<br />

Japanese noodles, arabiki pork sausage, red peppers, sweetened cabbage with shichimi and garlic fries. <br />
<br />
Justin got terimayo-- all beef made with teriyaki sauce, Japanese spicy mayo and seaweed. He choose the wasabi fries. <br />
<br />
All in all I have to say I much preferred Justin's choices to mine.

<br />
Waffles toasted with cheese on them. Eggs fried in bacon grease. Rest of prep is standard. <br />
<br />
Next time I think we are going to dice the bacon up and integrate it with the beans. <div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAs2z9I8FXCJ9swCzzqFmm-aVJpMzc0YF5q4lmHcjd9U5FWSLxn2Y9aTHTZ7xfHBgvY5I6QVqdmvvMPsWl5CFdHTWaerqQ4xQtG3_e3tX-sW8DNX9HUkoLpE0YIGEW52PIb3Z6FHO4YHwz/s640/blogger-image--266827252.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAs2z9I8FXCJ9swCzzqFmm-aVJpMzc0YF5q4lmHcjd9U5FWSLxn2Y9aTHTZ7xfHBgvY5I6QVqdmvvMPsWl5CFdHTWaerqQ4xQtG3_e3tX-sW8DNX9HUkoLpE0YIGEW52PIb3Z6FHO4YHwz/s640/blogger-image--266827252.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje41uird55gLEwjLzDhg-Y9CFzuYj5krWjyAG6mlwlZ2QHeXNNZ9kG_XOF1vARA547KPYB8o6uMsU8TX6kz_Ol9dj1xTxAAIse-0sIxukouf0KQA0CJe1a5W0jS-5PJLzp6WU8cwe0U7aj/s640/blogger-image-1166706264.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEje41uird55gLEwjLzDhg-Y9CFzuYj5krWjyAG6mlwlZ2QHeXNNZ9kG_XOF1vARA547KPYB8o6uMsU8TX6kz_Ol9dj1xTxAAIse-0sIxukouf0KQA0CJe1a5W0jS-5PJLzp6WU8cwe0U7aj/s640/blogger-image-1166706264.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtUrenmwA1b-xxjngzfBVJeQPOUlPBm8yqFcQbKEyfvcO1jvBF54ujO27_odomW_XzaHWiIqDOJ2qCl9kT8Ltg8MxLKlcNISq5WkS-IxOi6OoBgxujbv4gUU1WqvoImBLQhTN9PkuhS6qt/s640/blogger-image-406855556.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhtUrenmwA1b-xxjngzfBVJeQPOUlPBm8yqFcQbKEyfvcO1jvBF54ujO27_odomW_XzaHWiIqDOJ2qCl9kT8Ltg8MxLKlcNISq5WkS-IxOi6OoBgxujbv4gUU1WqvoImBLQhTN9PkuhS6qt/s640/blogger-image-406855556.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator"style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwtIYvSFPRIUloV-e64J4d5wZFg2-93UDI0JznaBRF6ckI0aOAsNF_J0cJYTypUBGpba_S3a3lpxKVU83KWqXpAMb8PxRoCEMBUCWraeq9N1HE-9ISmUmyRS9cUJFwvmkyKQpNcr_jQS88/s640/blogger-image-1065825026.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwtIYvSFPRIUloV-e64J4d5wZFg2-93UDI0JznaBRF6ckI0aOAsNF_J0cJYTypUBGpba_S3a3lpxKVU83KWqXpAMb8PxRoCEMBUCWraeq9N1HE-9ISmUmyRS9cUJFwvmkyKQpNcr_jQS88/s640/blogger-image-1065825026.jpg" /></a></div>Britt R.http://www.blogger.com/profile/05701037538510801117noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5224987211060357882.post-82968507634020071722012-05-27T18:36:00.001-07:002012-05-27T18:36:56.439-07:00Dinner at Craigie on Main with JaneThe civilian:<br />
Mezcal, orange, lime, date molasses, Thai chilli. <br />
<br />
The amazing craigie burger of course with delicious fries and a salad.<br />
<br />
Plus my favorite part: asked the bartender to surprise me and me made me the most delicious cocktail: <br />
Chamucos tequila, house made rhubarb and lime simple syrup, muddled green cardamom, grapefruit juice, lime, Thai chilli pepper simple syrup and a few drops orange blossom water.
