Three-course dinner

Eastside Road, January 19, 2011—

TONIGHT WE RETURNED to last Sunday's dinner, starting with the rest of the jar of eggplant tapenade, still delicious, perhaps more so for its accompanying broccoli with red pepper flakes. Then the remainder of those Corona beans, dressed as L. pointed out the other day with shallots, marjoram, and oil, and little shreds of fennel-stems. Green salad, of course; soon the present vinegar supply will be exhausted, and I'll have to look for more out by the workshop.

Cheap Pinot grigio; Carminère, Panilonco, Colchagua Valley (Chile), 2008
