beef oxtail recipes?
I just used a modified recipe from Epicurious - as BeaN did in November 2005. I had no leeks, bay leaves, or parsley and the thyme was ground. I used 3/4 bottle of merlot and the rest of the liquid was low sodium beef broth. For me it was 6 stalks celery sliced in small slices, 1 cup thin slice carrot rounds, 2 medium size white onions, and 2 whole garlic bunches. I cook barley on the side with about 3/4 cup of the soup broth after it has been simmering for an hour. That way I can have the straight soup, add barley at the end to the guest's portion, or add pasta. Seems to make everyone happy to have it with pasta or barley or straight. The meat falls off the bones and it does improve with age.
Where's Double Diamond English Beer in AZ?
New to Chowhound today and enjoyed very much reading so many threads centered in the various Arizona locations. I travel around the state for my job and every time I am in a new restaurant or store with an extensive liquor section, I look for my favorite beer. It's a bottle beer from England: rich, creamy, dark and sweet. I have not found it in Arizona in 3 years of looking. Used to get in in Illinois and Iowa, and also it was on tap in Bloomington, IL. So, if you have heard of this even, I'd appreciate your suggestions and thanks.
orange table coffee soda - (scotts ctr for arts)
Had a meetup there with my flickr.com friends recently and all our orders were wonderful. The food was presented well and had unique combinations to the plates orders. Best Bangers and Mash I ever had! Highly recommended for small groups in the early evenings.
