I've done the Italian Stuffed Pork Loin before with a full pork loin, but today I did it with just a pork tenderloin, cutting the filling ingredients in half. It cooked in about 45 minutes instead of over an hour, and was just as good :-) ...

Tonight I made my black bean and ham soup, using up most of the leftover ham from a couple nights ago. This time, instead of onion powder, I grated a small onion and sautéed it in a little canola oil. The fresh addition was nice, so I've rewritten ...

An easy dinner tonight: ham and brussels sprouts roasted in the oven for about 40 minutes. The ham was a delicious apple and honey cured ham from the local Hempler's.

Dinner tonight was some tonkatsu (Japanese breaded pork cutlets) with Bunashimeji, aka brown beech mushrooms, stir fried in a little sesame oil, and a little green salad. A nice balanced meal :-)

This recipe comes from my local Central Market. They often have recipes near their weekly specials, and this one was a real winner! The only thing I changed was using about 1/4 tsp of dried red pepper flakes instead of whole dried chiles, as I could not find ...

This is another great recipe inspired by Fine Cooking. Pork and apples are a time honored combination, especially for fall, and this version is quite good. I'm not much of a fan of scallions (the whole not cooked to death onion = migraine thing :-P ...
