Making polenta and rosemary pork tenderloin last night, a rare bit of improvisation struck me and I decided to bake the pork (post searing) in apple juice and 'julienned' apples and it was definitely the right choice. I thought the end product was a bit dry and could of used some more sauce (or 'jus' for the fancy) but mro and JeffH said otherwise. Thank the lord for saturday night. - dmp
At Molly's grandparents' little house in Maine, dinner always begins with cocktails, and cocktails are always poured at 5 o'clock sharp. When the flurry of food preparation is through, dinner is baking in the oven and the table is set, her grandparents sit down together to enjoy a little peace, quiet and that final gin and tonic of the evening. When you hear them say "One and Supp?" it simply means, do we have time for one more cocktail before supper?
In our Brooklyn home, this tradition of food, drink, creation, and communion continues and this blog serves to document our home cooking and the care that goes into making such daily celebrations.

Nice work, you two! I made homemade butter this evening because of you.
Had some great polenta and brussel sprouts last night (at Diner). Peasant food!
We made polenta tonight and then I remembered you had, too. Perhaps your post put it in the back of my mind when I was menu-planning last night!
I was reading this post as you were commenting on Witches.
I am so impressed with you and Molly. Meals gone wild.
