Following a New Recipe to the Letter

Raise your hand if you follow a recipe exactly. Raise your hand if you mostly follow a recipe, but not quite exactly. I'm in the second category...except for today! I followed a delicious recipe down to the right amount of salt and the lemon zest it "required"! First time in a very long while this has happened, but I had every single ingredient on hand, and dirtied up the kitchen quite well to make the "Crispy Spicy Turkey with Lemon and Herbs". That meant using two big frying pans, getting the Food Processor out from way back in the cupboard to pulse the cauliflower, and zesting a lemon! Whew!

Thankfully, the meal was "outstanding", and this compliment came straight from my spouse (he loves everything, by the way!). No really, it's was that good. I don't know if the cold weather had anything to do with it, you know, comfort food, but I'm still thinking about it 4 hours later...

BSoleille! The bright side of a lingering thought of a good hearty Sunday meal!
