"Dinner of the Week".......

This week we will be offering a "dinner of the week" special. It includes either Salmon or Hanger Steak with a bag of spinach, rice pilaf and a bottle of wine. We will take 15% of the total of your purchase. We also have two great recipes that customers have shared with us and are absolutely delicious.

Salmon with Dijon Mustard:

Dijon mustard
Salt
pepper
garlic
rosemary
olive oil

Coat salmon with olive oil
Spread a thin layer of Dijon mustard on the top
Sprinkle with black pepper, garlic and fresh rosemary

Cook at 350 for 15-20 minutes (depending on the size of fillet)

Turn up the heat to 450 for the last few minutes

Hanger Steak with Shallots:

2T olive oil
1/4 cup red wine
2T butter
2T parsley
4 medium shallots

Season steaks with salt and pepper to taste

Heat oil in a heavy skillet on high
Place steaks in skillet and cook about 6 minutes (3 minutes a side) for medium rare. Flip steaks when they are browned.

Take steaks off and let cool on a plate, cover loosely with foil.

Reduce heat to medium and melt 1T butter , add shallots and cook until soft.
Add wine and bring to a boil, let cool and add parsley and remaining butter.
Pour over steaks and serve.

New products this week: Ramps and Black Garlic

If you have not tried a Ramp come in and pick some up. They are similar to a leek and have an oniony-garlic flavor. They will work in the recipe above instead of shallots. Take it up a notch and throw in some Black Garlic.

Black garlic is an exciting new product. It has a sweet savory flavor and almost melts in your mouth.  It is loaded with twice as many antioxidants as raw garlic and contains a natural cancer preventing compound.

Enjoy!
