I can hardly remember the last time I updated posterous. Having a rare 3-day off, I am going to make a rare appearance and post the latest lunch I made for Barrel.

I made a Trotter Pie, which I have been craving lately (craving a meat pie!). Ingredients for pie fillings are celery, carrots, Taiwanese sausage, and of course...trotters, which I braised for 5 hours in water with lemongrass (can hardly tell the flavor of lemongrass though). For pie dough, I use Thomas Keller's recipe from his Ad Hoc at Home. I still have a portion of pie dough left, any pies you'd like to see me make? (be creative...tired of pumpkin, pecan, blah blah blah pies)
