Promises, Promises

This was dinner tonight, chicken salad stuffed tomatoes. Too bad we only had three tomatoes or I would have stuffed a lot more. Yum. We were also missing tarragon and red grapes. I subbed apples for the fruit and capers for the tarragon. Nothing can make up for no tarragon.

I decided tonight that tomorrow I will make 2 recipes. Both will require me finding specialized ingredients/cooking utensils. First, Mrs Beeton's Braised Leg of Mutton and second, Smitten Kitchen's Poppy Seed Cake. Now, all I need to find is a leg of mutton and an 8-inch tube pan. And bacon, stock, poppy seeds, lemons, and cornstarch. Easy Peasy.
