GRACE’S QUASI-PASSOVER DINNER

Grace, who is an amazing chef and has her own food blog, www.gracefood.tumblr.com, got some stomachs really happy tonight. She cooked her COQ AU VIN for a few hours in a heavy pot using: chicken legs, bacon slices, carrots, celery and a lot of love — the chicken and bacon juices, along with the spices, vegetables and wine created a sauce that was super tasty, hearty and mouth-watering. The chicken was accompanied by BRAISED PEAS AND LETTUCE, adding bright color and a sweet, fresh taste to the plate, as well as POTATOES WITH SOUR CREAM AND HERBS, which smelled and tasted like spring. To keep things in the family, Grace shared one of her grandmother’s recipe’s of SAVORY MATZO MUFFINS with zucchini and peppers — a perfect way to round out all the flavors.
