February 14th, Happy Valentine’s Day.
If you're on a budget and can’t afford diamonds, as portrayed in the commercials, here is an inexpensive gift idea. Don’t laugh until you try it and I have. Chill a bottle of Asti Spumante and serve with some Oreo cookies. This may not be as romantic as strawberries and chocolate, which works as well, but there is a lot less prep time. Give it a shot I guarantee your girlfriend, fiancée, wife will love it.
Now, the Tip of the Week from the Virginian-Pilot food section is: Get rid of fish odor by rubbing your hands and utensils with lemon juice. I also saw a neat trick in this months Cook’s Illustrated Quick Tips section. Take a bunch of clean dry herbs such as cilantro or parsley, gather them by the stems into a bunch and run a fork through the leaves like your combing your hair. It should make prep work a breeze. Remember to place the stems in a freezer bag and place them in the freezer for stock.
