February 2005

Red Potato Pizza

This wafer-crisp beauty, topped with a dubious-sounding combination of sliced red potatoes, spinach, and aged Gorgonzola, proved to be amazingly tasty and inspired.

Braised Lamb Shank

Browned for days to fall-off-the-bone tenderness and flavored with a delicious ragout of onions, tomatoes, peppers, and herbs—this is truly a lamb shank redemption.

Chocolate Oblivion

A supreme sweet that includes a light pastry tart filled with rich Belgian chocolate ganache and mild vanilla crème anglaise is topped with “strawberry tartare.”
