I swear. The fake pepperonata was pretty good, but the polenta (my first ever!) was great (ok fine, it was instant, but I was afraid of regular old polenta-grits--I'm not afraid any more) and the braised beans were excellent.
I am officially obsessed with braising. It all started with the anti-Kosher delicacy: Pork braised in milk. Go to meathenge for the recipe and mouth-watering photos. So I, who almost never makes meat, managed to put together this work of genius on two different occasions, and have since picked up an all-about-braising book that has since been kicking around my apartment long enough to become overdue, and have I made that osso bucco yet?
(Aside: Blogger's spell-checker suggests "insolent" for "polenta." Also "somnolent," "redolent," and "malevolent.")
