House Sitting!






Gabe, Thomas and I are going to house sit for Gabe's parents next week! They live on a little farm and have cows and chickens that Gabe will have to take care of. They also have a WONDERFUL gourmet kitchen!!! Since I married a gourmet chef, we are going to have some fun. I am obsessed with the show on bravo, Top Chef. I love all the creative things the chefs make and all the different techniques of cooking. So far this is what we want to cook.

Potato Leek Soup w/ gnocchi
(gnocchi is kind of like a noodle made from potatoes, we have never tried it before)

Chicken Picatta w/ sun dried tomato risotto
( I have no idea what this is but Gabe is excited)

Chicken Sous Vide w/ Yukon gold garlic mashed potatoes
(this is a special way of cooking the chicken, kind of like poaching it in a vacuum sealed bag)

Kahlua Pork w/ rice
( Gabe usually makes huge portions of the pork for catering, but we are going to try smaller portions)

Peppercorn crusted steak w/ either potatoes or cous cous

We are very excited!!!
