Sunday 2 November, Commemorazione Defunti
(I can't seem to quit the liturgical calendar .app)
A noble roasted beast, purchased according to Alton Brown's sage mnemonic: top not tip. So about 3 lbs. of protein, coated with grinded up dried thyme, rosemary, salt, black pepper. Into the oven at 450º for 10 minutes, then down to 350º for 2 hours, till the old instant read thermometer hits 120º. Rest for 15 minutes.
Roasted alongside a covered dish of golden beets. Almost passed these up at the market in favour of the usual cute little red ones, but as I was passing as woman said, "I had these last week and they were so good." I bought them and suggested to the guy that since the lady had made a sale for him, he should give her a discount. He accused us of working in collusion. Ah, the classic double-play Golden Beet Sting.
Also roasted some quartered onions and apples in the same pan as the beast. The differemt varieties of apples went into only 15 minutes before serving but some still made apple sauce. Tasty, though, with all the roasty toasty juices mixing together.
