Grilling the argentine way.

Ordered this Francis Mallmann book a few days ago and it arrived this afternoon. I've only looked through it briefly, but some of the recipes look very good. And the photography is excellent! Here are a few that I found online...

Burnt carrots with goat cheese, parsley, arugula and crispy garlic chips...

Sheet music salad (the paper thin round things are tomatoes)...

Pretty cool book!

I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    That all looks really good, but I don't need a book to tell me how to burn things! :laugh: :P :woohoo: :silly:

  • Connecticut Yankee, enjoy the book. :) I've made the Burnt tomatoe, Goat Chesse, and Anchovy Bruschetta; the Smashed Beets with Greens, Goat Chesse, and Garlic Chips; the Chimichurri sauce; and Salmon a la Vara. There are quite a few more recipes I want to try.

    Rebecca, even though I have lived here for far too many years, I HOPE I am not a Connecticut Yankee!!! Actually, I am a Virginian in exile in Connecticut. Forum handle notwithstanding. :lol:

    I gotta rig up something for the firepit on my patio. Love a good steak over an open fire, but I haven't done it since the boys were little and we went camping often. Guess that means I will soon have THREE eggs - Large, Mini and the new "Firepit" model. :)

  • Michael, I just can't resist calling you a Connecticut Yankee, even though you have thoroughly informed me of your roots! :) I think this is going to be difficult for you to shake, lol.

    Post pics of your rig!
