cooking la plancha

fishlessman · January 2

got a simple cook book called la plancha over the holidays, simple gook, marinades and sauces, but really vibrant looking flavors. dont have a simple plate to cook on yet so used the fry pan, used a modified trex style cook that was sear rest roast, then high heat again to finish. worked pretty well

Now you're talking my language! Sounds great. We made a Oyster Rockefeller stew on Monday. Complete with the anise, fresh spinach and ersahs.
