tonight, robert & i made dinner. i’m talking an all-out, homemade-everything meal.
for the last few fridays, we’ve been trying new recipes of dishes we’d never attempted before. it’s a fairly inexpensive, fun way to spend a friday night, if you ask me! ;) martha stewart would be proud…
tonight, we made gruyere & chive scones from scratch. you can find the recipe here.
we also made homemade risotto with mushrooms, asparagus, and parmesan cheese. so delicious. i highly recommend this recipe for anyone who loves risotto. it does take quite a bit of time of stirring the dish while standing over a hot stove, but the final result is completely worth the effort! (at one point, i had to leave the freezer door open to cool myself off … darn, my teensy-weensy, stuffy kitchen.) you can find the risotto recipe here. (it’s a recipe from martha stewart’s personal chef, so i guess we should’ve known it would be a bit complicated.)
any new recipes you’ve tried that you’d be willing to share here?
