I pulled the first bulb of Garlic out of the Garden this morning!! Planted in late October, fed with multiple Mulch and Mushroom Soil dressings, Organic Plant food etc. This "seed" comes from my nephew Julian who worked on an Organic Farm in Michigan a few years back. Small Bulbs but huge, firm Cloves!! Some of the best Garlic I have eaten and or worked with!!!

A couple times a year, I long for my favorite soup of all time!! The Coconut, Lemongrass Soup from the old Siam Thai, my favorite local restaurant ever!!! We used to eat it there, order it for takeout, etc. It was simply put, perfection!!! I had all the key ingredients except for Galanga root. Fortunately, I had some powerful Ginger and fresh Lemongrass!! The key was some super thick and tasty Coconut Milk from Whole Foods!!! And a little Thai Red Curry paste, an ingredient that was recommended in a great recipe that I found a few years ago!! With some Palm Sugar and Thai Fish Sauce to round it out!!! Pure Umami deliciousness!!!!!

After eating some supremely delicious Prime Rib for a few days after Christmas it was time to try something different!! BTW, if you want to re-heat Prime Rib, I think that I have come up with a great way to do it!! Wrap the Prime Rib in multiple sheets of Parchment paper, then wrap it in multiple layers of aluminum foil, heat it in a preheated 300 f oven. This allows the meat to reheat without over cooking the meat!!! Back to the photo, this is the beautifully cooked Beef, trimmed and sliced for the best "Roast Beef" Sandwich that I have ever made of eaten!!! A Safe,Happy and Healthy New Year to all our friends at Max Hansen Caterer!!
