Sunday’s dinner
There is a lot that Rachael and I must do to get ready for Sunday night’s dinner. Here is the planned menu:
- pickled green beans
- sticky pork buns
- pho w/ roasted duck
As of now the duck is defrosting in the fridge (I bought it at a farmer’s market in November). We also have to go to at least three grocers and a market to get everything we need, from spices to vegetables and noodles.
Prep will likely start tomorrow. I’ll season the duck and dry out the skin while Rachael makes the dough and preps the pork buns. I may also do a trial run of the pickles. On Sunday, I’ll roast the duck early and once its been carved use the carcass to start the broth.
Throughout the process I will be documenting (with recipes) here, so check back and be sure to comment.
