Two new foods this week!
1 - Brazilian Beef and Horseradish Sausage
I was in Lulu's looking for some Italian sausage for my pasta, and I came across Brazilian Beef and Horseradish Sausage (I never found the Italian sausage.) My previous experiences with horseradish made me ask if the sausage would be too spicy. The Lulu's employee informed me that it was "normal, not spicy." So I took some home. I also wondered why there were Brazilian cows in Abu Dhabi, but soon figured they just ship the meat over ;-) Anywho, I figured it'd be worth a try. OMG, it was delicious! I prepared it with sauteed garlic, scallions, mushrooms, bell peppers, various seasonings, and tomato sauce, on top of noodles. It's a good thing I made enough for 2 days worth of lunch and dinner, because it's definitely a meal I wanted to have over and over again.
2 - The same day I also tried my hand at making salsa. I did a good job too! It turned out great! Chopped tomatoes, onions, cilantro, fresh squeezed lime juice, a little corn, a pinch of salt, and I threw in some diced peaches ...voila, salsa!
I think I should have a cooking show on The Food Network called, "Cooking with Shannon in Abu Dhabi." I know, it's not the most creative title, but it'll work.
