This was my dinner last night. I thought I had better get in a few more braises before the weather warms up so I chose beef ribs. I'm not sure if I have had beef ribs before but I wasn't crazy about these. The taste was good but I found them too fatty.
The simple boiled new potatoes and everything-in-the-kitchen salad with a honey mustard dressing were both great. I splurged on some pomegranate seeds (which are actually called something other than seeds but I can't remember what it is) at Costco yesterday and threw them in the salad. Yummy. I have always liked pomegranate seeds but find it such a pain to release them from their homes that I never eat them. Since these were already released from their homes and pithless, I bought them. They are worth the little extra. Which is good because buying them at Costco means I'll be eating them as fast as I can to use up the copious quantities! I believe they freeze well, I'll check that out.
For a very yummy finish, Lemon Squares! These are a new recipe from the most recent Bon Appetit magazine and are made with lemongrass in addition to lemon juice. With a nice coconut shortbread crust, they are heavenly. I took some to my neighbour with cancer and was glad that she not only likes lemon squares but since lemon is one of the few flavours she can taste at the moment, she was very happy to receive them.
