OK, most of this is pretty self-explanatory. You've all seen scrambled eggs, french toast and hashbrowns before, so I'm going to touch on some of the heavy hitters and call it a post on this one...
I will start with the personal highlight of the day (and dish I was responsible for), the corned beef hash. There was a lot of praise directed my way on this one...which actually kinda' caught me off guard. First it was one student, then another, then another-- everyone was piping up to tell me that the hash was delicious or "the best they've ever had." Very high praise, indeed, but the best of the best was the chef from the class next door (who stops in to snag food from us most days) *came back* and stopped the class seeking out who made the hash. I got a nice pat on the back from him, and my chef, so hey...I guess the hash was good.
My (not so humble) take...it was really good. Sorry, Mom-- I've got you on this one...
The obvious star of the day was the heart attack platter, aka the platter with Canadian bacon, sausage and bacon on it. All of those products are homemade. We smoked it ourselves, made it ourselves, cured it ourselves, etc. It was good...but probably not good for you.
I have this chilling in my freezer thanks to Breads kitchen. This is a Linzer Tart. It's filled with raspberry preserves and topped with powdered sugar. The crust has the zest of a lemon and orange in it, as well as some chopped up nuts (I believe almonds and hazelnuts), cinnamon, nutmeg and some graham cracker crumbs. Delicious.
