Who really makes everything
from scratch? Come on, I’m sure you’ve hosted a dinner party and instead of
planning a menu you decided to watch Downton Abbey…or procrastinate in some other fashion. It happens to all of us and it’s all right.
After tonight, my motto is
this: if you’re going to cheat, you might as well give it a go and do a good job at it.
No, no, I’m not talking about
doing anything illegal. I am talking about “cheating” as in not wanting to labor over a boeuf
bourguignon or a tarte aux pommes all afternoon. My point is if you decide that
you don't feel like preparing something from scratch, you better make sure that
your substitute is up to par.
And…. I have the perfect solution for all of you Nashvillians out there who are
scrambling to prepare for your dinner party or just want to serve a gourmet
meal, without all of the work.
They know what’s up when it
comes to pork ossobucco. That’s for sure. The meat literally falls off the bone with just the slightest touch of your fork.
Check it out. All I had to do
was heat up the pork with my own vegetable broth, roast some rosemary
potatoes and leeks, and wash a bunch of spinach. In thirty minutes, you can prep,
roast, and get dressed for the
evening!

Did I say that everything is locally produced?
