People, I was tremendously blessed today (no offense to Rachel Khoo). I'm completing this challenge beginning to end & to my luck, the first recipe was salade de figures et firs de volailles (fig & chicken liver salad). I was hesitant but in honor of the challenge, I was going to make it & try to enjoy it. I spent some lovely time at the Findlay Market with Portia getting to know the butchers & praise the Lord, everyone was out of chicken liver!!! Apparently some guy came & bought out all of the chicken liver from each stand. What are the odds? So I decided to make the next recipe (because I had to honor the challenge) & come back in a few days for the chicken liver...
Sidenote, there is an exhibit right now across from Findlay Market called "Eggs" & it's definitely worth checking out. Me & Portia both bought an egg & each egg had a task inside that we have to complete. For example, hers was "order a refill for someone," & mine was "ask a kid to draw a masterpiece for you to hang on your fridge." I'm trying to show Portia that Cincinnati is a good place because she is a little scared. So this was one of those moments of pride in my community.
Back to the subject, I ended up making the second recipe which is lentilles du puy avec un fromage de chèure, betteraues et use vinaigrette d'aneth (Puy lentil salad with goat's cheese, beets, & a dill vinaigrette). This sounds better than the chicken liver but still doesn't sound delicious. Once I tasted it I immediately felt bad for doubting Rachel Khoo. It was radical. Now I'm a little excited for chicken liver salad...emphasis on little.
