Panko Crusted Pork Cutlet

Salmon en Papillote
I laughed out loud when Barbara at Cuisinedeprovence suggested we could flirt with the butcher. I am too old for that, but today I did appeal as a mother. I looked at the salmon and asked if it was fresh, did it smell? The butcher/fish guy said yes it was fresh, no it did not … [Read more...] about Salmon en Papillote
