How is goat different from lamb, taste-wise? I'm curious.
Similar flavor, but a lot moreso.
I'd never had goat before, and it was fine, but I don't need to order it again.
I am home! And my apartment still smells like curry from what I cooked Friday night. Oops. I guess that says something good about the air-tight-ness of the place, though?
We're getting our first winter CSA box tomorrow. It may contain beets. I have no idea what to do with beets. Or if I like them.
Roast them. It's the easiest thing to do with them, and delicious.
seconding -t. Roast 'em. Salads with goat cheese. NOM
Roast them, cut them into little cubes (being careful -- the juice stains, and it can get everywhere), and put them in a salad, with baby greens and walnuts and a citrusy dressing.
This is another easy way to cook beets:
And a delicious soup to make out of them (if you like caraway and buttermilk!):
I like them any way I've had them, but recently I had them just roasted w/ balsamic, and they were yum.
And what Sox & Hil & -t said! Delicious!
... just don't worry about colors of things for the next couple days after...
what. Someone had to say it.
One of my cousins is in a production of Billy Elliot in LA, and the kid playing Billy (they just cast one kid for each of the kid parts, since it's just five nights a week and only for a few weeks) broke his arm a couple of days before opening. They got one of the other kids who'd played Billy in the touring company to fly in, and learned the new staging and choreography in four days. I'm really impressed with that -- learning new choreography for something after spending months doing different choreography must be really tricky. The show's getting pretty good reviews, too.
