  • Reuben sandwich

      very good,especially Russian dressing.

  • Pampas-style stuffed, rolled flank steak

    • mjes on August 11, 2021

      I wish I knew when my butcher shop wasn't hectic - butterflying the flank steak was not fun when I lack the appropriate knife skills. The inclusion of hard boiled eggs and olives in the stuffing provided a pleasant surprise in the vegetable filling. I liked this especially because it is also good at room temperature making leftovers usable without drying them out.

  • Chicken pad Thai

    • mjes on August 11, 2021

      While this recipe is significantly different from my normal pad thai recipe, the use of fish sauce, tamarind, chili paste, and palm sugar gives the stir-fry a distinctively south-east Asian flavor. It is worth using the optional dried shrimp and pickled radish to enhance the sense of place. This is a quick dish for 1 or 2 that is forgiving on measurements. Because of the health concerns re: store bought mung bean sprouts, I either make my own or use canned - most often the latter.

    ...the book's strength is in the recipes, 135 in all...It's no bible, but it is a great font of ideas for worldly, meat-centric meals.

Publishers Text

For anyone who ever wanted to know the difference between Porterhouse and Chateaubriand, the Lobel family of master butchers has all the answers in the Meat Bible. Covering every imaginable meat--beef, veal, pork, lamb, poultry, rabbit, and more--the Lobels share their extensive knowledge of the differing tastes, textures, flavors, fat contents, and uses for each cut of meat. More than 150 recipes include such savory dishes as Thai Beef Salad, Braised Pork Tacos with Ancho Chile Sauce, Lamb Loin Chops with Eggplant Caponata and Andalusian-Style Quail with Dates and Almonds. How-to instructions take the mystery out of techniques such as butterflying a chicken. When it comes to meat, no one knows more than the Lobels.
