Tonight’s dinner was a variation on Surf ‘n Turf. The first course was the turf – roasted sections of axially cut beef femur. Susan prepared the marrow perfectly, and we had it on crostini that she made from a French baguette. It was deliciously unctuous!
The second course was the surf, of course. It was a humble bowl of shrimp flavored ramen served with Sauteed gulf shrimp and sliced Shiitake mushrooms. The sashimi accompaniment was Tuna Tataki, and I ate part of mine shabu-shabu style.
Maybe I have been watching a bit too much Iron Chef this past week.
