Dinner at Home


A pre-dinner snack of Roquefurt and a sharp, creamy cow cheese on rye crisps.



Red Wine Braised Oxtail with Turnips, Green Beans, Zuchinni and Fresh Chopped Cilantro
Oxtail was on sale at Costco and since I had never cooked oxtail before, I figured I'd give it a shot. From my extensive reading of oxtail recipes online I chose braising as the best as the best option to bring out the flavor of the oxtail. Braising in a red wine reduction and chicken broth for 3 hours on 350 made the oxtail tender, but not fall off the bone. The turnips became infused with the red wine flavor and they were great.
