I’m home for
only six days between the Brazil tours and my Bolivia tour. That’s plenty of
time to repack, make backups of my laptop files and photos, and do laundry, but
not enough time to see all the friends I want to. And it’s been weeks since
I’ve been able to cook, so I made:
Cheesy onion
bread (from Peter Rheinhardt’s Artisian
Breads Every Day)
Curry cole
slaw (from Cook’s Illustrated)
Lentil salad
(from a the back page of The Thymes,
the First Alternative Co-op’s newsletter in Corvallis)
and
Oven-smoked Pork Ribs (from Cook’s Illustrated).
This last
recipe involves smearing the ribs the day before with a mixture of mustard,
ketchup, garlic, and spices; heating the oven with a pizza stone to 500°F;
scattering powdered, ground lapsang souchang tea leaves over the bottom of a
baking tray; putting the ribs over the tea leaves on a cooling rack; sealing
the whole thing tightly in heavy-duty aluminum foil; and then placing the pan
on the pizza stone so the tea leaves smoke into the ribs. After a half hour, I
added some apple juice to the tray, resealed the foil, and roast it at a much
lower temperature for several hours. I made a ton and invited a bunch of
people.
