We made an amazing mushroom chicken stew for dinner tonight! Fresh portabellos, dried porcinis, champignon demiglace, plus a nice mirepoix, a bunch of thyme, some chicken legs and breasts, a few glugs of Backhouse Pinot Noir, and a bit of brown rice. Delicious!

Last night, I made the crash hot potatoes to go along with the sauteed eggplants and turnips, brown butter arugula, avocado-bell pepper salad, and smoked trout we had for dinner. I also made Francis Lam’s pan-roasted corn for a cookout we didn’t wind up being able to go to. So into the bento it goes!
