Beans to Go

Black beans cooked with lard sweated onions in lamb stock, seasoned with salt, pepper, cumin, tomato paste, and lime juice. Over basmati rice and topped with crème fraîche and cilantro. Not soupy, but not as stiff as it looks in the picture. File under: simple and good.

And no posts until after the holiday, as The CFT is off to play carny for the weekend at The Great Blue Heron Festival, slinging grass fed meat in western NY. File under: why the hell did I agree to do this, and cross reference to: I have to stop committing to do things while drinking. But a promise is a promise, and at least I'll be well fed.

Wow - you have certainly been cooking up a storm - everything looks mouthwatering and delicious. I'd love a bowl of the rice pudding right now for breakfast.

Thanks Heidi. One bowl would provide your recommended dairy intake for about three weeks.
