Snupper Club II: Mexico
The location of Snupper Club numero dos was to be my own kitchen, and I wanted to go Bayless-style. Thus, a more or less traditional Mexican menu, slightly tailored to northern Chihuahuan foods. I got the pork and soup recipes from Mexico: The Beautiful Cookbook, while the rest were re-assembled from memory after spending a few days with my 2 Diana Kennedy books.
The menu:
(no photo) Jicama salad with lime, cilantro, and chipotle
Tortilla soup garnished with tortillas, avocado, lime, queso fresco, and cilantro
Pork loin broiled in a garlic-cumin marinade, then braised in mulato-tomatillo sauce
Corn pudding
Zucchini gratin (because I am a zuke freak, it is the only thing in focus in the photo.)
(no photo) Almond cinnamon panna cotta with cinnamon syrup
All in all, things turned out well. There were several in the group having seconds, and even some trips back to the kitchen to see what remained in the pots on the stove:
Next round, it will be a trip to Spain and I definitely can't wait for some real Paella.
