Healthy Holiday Recipe: Onion Bread Pudding
The other day I had a baguette that was past its prime, and my first thought was "I'll make bread pudding." But with all the holiday sweets around, I didn't want to add to the temptation with another dessert. So I dug up this recipe for a savory Onion Bread Pudding instead.
Exercise in Excess: The French Laundry Part 2
Yesterday I walked you through the first part of my extravagant time at the French Laundry, and while everything I posted was definitely tasty, you guys haven't even seen the meat of the story (bad pun intended). Today I'll take you from fish course to beef and all the lovely bits in-between.
After the foie gras, the next course was either Filet of American Red Snapper with Summer Squash, San Marzano Tomato "Fondue," Cuttlefish and Arugula-Castelvetrano Olive Pudding (shown right) or Spanish Mackerel "En Escabeche" with Hawaiian Hearts of Peach Palm, English Cucumbers, Cilantro Shoots, Haas Avocado "Coulis" and Rangpur Lime "Gastrique" (shown above).

Well, last week I finally fixed that by dining at Thomas Keller's number 4 ranked (number 1 in the US) The French Laundry of Yountville, CA (Napa wine country). The menu there consists of two options: the chef's tasting menu or the taste of vegetables menu, so unfortunately there's no popping in and ordering a la carte.
Today's Special: Strata with Sausage and Sun-Dried Tomatoes
For a reason I can't exactly pinpoint, I've been craving sun dried tomatoes like mad lately. I blame Michael Chiarello for my sudden, inexplicable craving because I saw him making a puff pastry appetizer with the sweet tomato this weekend. My go to recipe for whenever I am in need of sun dried tomatoes is a pasta one but today I'm not in the mood for pasta, I'm in the mood for a baked strata.
