This was a really great week! We made some great salads and side dishes. The standouts were the oven smoked ribs, steak fries (oven "fried"), 2 types of oven roasted green beans, and 2 types of chocolate pudding cake. The fries really tasted as if they had been deep fried. The ribs were super spicy, possibly to spicy for the average person. But I really like them. We only had one bean dish to make, but Chef Craig had some Chinese long beans and he had me roast them as well. MMMMM!! Then Chef had me make two versions of the pudding cake. One followed the menu, the other Chef had me adjust the flour and add nuts. It tasted like the richest brownie ever. That is one of the things I really like about Chef Craig, he always encourages us to find our own way. Great week!
