I love dinner parties. We hosted one on hump day (Wednesday) this week.
Apps:
-Cheese plate with Mt Tam triple-cream from the Cowgirl Creamery and an aged gouda, the kind that cracks in your mouth.
-Salami that the hubby always buys directly from the factory.
-Thin sliced portabella mushrooms topped with crème fraiche and mint (it's like a carpaccio and is from the Zuni cookbook, which I love).
-Baked prosciutto-wrapped dates with fresh mint. My sister-in-law made these for us a while back and they were exquisite.
Main:
-Andean stew - recipe from NY Times.
-Spicy cornbread that my friend Julia made.
-Arugula salad with persimmons.
Dessert:
-Yogurt cake - recipe from Orangette. I added pineapple.
