Lamb Chops with Spinach and Genovese Pesto

Lazy Day Oven Roasted Spareribs
I had a couple of quarter slabs of spareribs in the freezer; I think I must have cut them from a pork belly. I thought I’d do something easy for Jade’s dinner. I rubbed the pieces with Emeril’s essence; … Continue reading

Pita Veal Burger with Pear and Tomato Chutney

File Gumbo Light
In our family, gumbo was chicken, shrimp, sausage, crab bodies and file, period. No okra. Light on the rice. There was really no big brouhaha about the roux. You made a gravy base; no big deal, gravy was … Continue reading

Crispy Fried Pork Belly, Chicken and Noodle Salad
