rich

Alan spent more than five hours cooking today, producing the onion soup and beef croquettes. My husband is sometimes a little mad. Who else would put a beautiful prime ribe eye steak in the food processor with bread crumbs and make a giant meatball? He portioned it out into croquettes, which were served with a garlic dill aoili. (Homemade aoili at that.)

It's amazing how much good the soup is with carmelized onions and some cognac. All this rich food only makes me want to go back to sleep. So so so incredibly good. I married well, that's for damn sure.

Now some delicious port, and bed time.

Add a splash of balsamic vinegar to the beef. Make sure you get prime or choice meat. Not that select stuff they sell at grocery stores.

HAve you tried the BH Cohn Rasberry champagne vinegar?
