Dinner party with the Killians

This past Friday (the day after Thanksgiving) Blake Killian of BlakeMakes and his wife Bridget were in Shreveport as they were passing back through from visiting family in Arkansas. We planned a small dinner party for them and here are the results. I would have done more, maybe something a little more elaborate but being the day after Thanksgiving I was a little tired of cooking :)

Carrot and Pasilla Chile Soup

Miso Caramel Wasabi Apples

with a great wine brought by Bridget

Spicy homemade Pork Rinds

( I had some leftover skin from a pork belly dish I had cooked earlier in the year)

Rosemary Skirt Steak, Baby Spinach with Grapefruit Vinaigrette and Granny Smith Apples

 recipe included in an earlier post

Soft Chocolate Ganache with Cocoa Coffee Soil and Tangerine glaze

We had an amazing time, and the food, well, it was just the best. I wanted a gallon of that carrot soup. I could have eaten a side of that rosemary beef, and we all had seconds of the dessert which was so good, I could have begged for eighths, ninths, and tenths.

My place next time? Done. Although, this food was so good, I'm going to have to go to cooking school to top/match it.

Superb, bro.

Thanks again for your food, time and hospitality. bk

This makes me wish I was travelling through your area! We could have a good political discussion as well!
