Since Friday was Valentines Day, the past week was a little
hectic. For Valentines Day Feast has a new menu and I prepared a few parts of
the dishes.
Some of the most time consuming projects I had were juicing.
One of the menu items included romaine juice. I not only learned how operate a
juicer, but that romaine lettuce hearts are very difficult to juice. The
resulting lettuce juice smelled a lot like a freshly mowed lawn. It is definitely
not something I would ever think of to do. In
addition to juicing romaine lettuce hearts, I also juiced carrots. The carrot
juice was used in a risotto dish. I found that carrots are much easier to juice since they
are much less flexible. Even though they were easier to juice, I had to juice a
lot more of them, because carrots have a much lower water content. Since I
peeled so many carrots, my hands has been orange for the past couple days.
I also helped make an interesting salmon dish today. It was a salmon filet with a cream
cheese, lemon, and dill spread, covered in cucumber scales.
