The Astigmatic Gourmand

This is going to be an interesting experience!
I am The Gourmand's partner and have (finally) been entrusted with writing on his blog, Eat Me!
The Gourmand has had his eyes checked & the prognosis is that he has astigmatism and needs glasses. Being who he is, he is now looking around for the ideal pair of glasses that will suit his style. And that could take some time. Until then, I guess you will have to put up with my unique and quirky writing style. I'm not one to play secretary and sit on The Gourmand's lap while he dictates a story, so I'll be doing my own thing and writing food related posts.

So what has The Gourmand been preparing since his last post?

Italian Sausages Braised with Bay Leaf, Red Wine and Yellow Peppers. This dish was served with soft White Polenta.

Pork Escalopes Marinated with Basil, Fennel Seeds, Garlic, Rosemary and Sage. These were seared and served with a Cream & White Wine sauce.

Quail Braised with Cardamom, Orange, Plums and Sherry.

Pears with Aromatic Spices and Honey.

Gemfish Baked in a Parcel with Lemon Zest, Porcini, Thyme and White Wine.

Organic Lamb Provencale with Potato and Pumpkin puree.
