In this coldest of weeks, mornings in the low single digits barely hitting the 20s for the day's highs... I tried some winter whites.
Last weekend we headed out to Oleana, the Eastern Mediterranean restaurant owned by the chef wife of our CSA farmer. Between 6 of us, we had 5 appetizers, 4 entrees and 3 desserts. So many delicious flavors... the most amazing beans cooked al dente and so flavorful in a dish of scallops and roasted cauliflower with cinnamon and other spices, Fatoush, a salad with watercress, romaine, tangerine & pomegranate, Sultan’s Delight; Tamarind-Glazed Beef & Smokey Eggplant Purée with Pinenuts, Chick Pea Terrine with Apricot, Pistachio & Tahini Sauce. I'm getting hungry all over again.
It inspired this deep red and green Mediterranean (and Matisse) themed collage:
