It was all pretty tasty. However, have I ever mentioned that I don't enjoy rosemary too much? Well, I don't. And this meal had rosemary in every single element. So let's just say it was a tad overwhelming. Mike loved the herbiness of it, but I was actually trying to scrape some of off of the pork chop.
That being said, the pork chop was very good. It didn't get dried out at all, which was good. And the onion marmellata (basically slow cooking a bunch of onions for hours) was delicious! The recipe made about 4 times more than you needed to top the pork chops, so I'm going to freeze it and see if we can use it on something else. Out of these three elements, I could see making the onion part again and using it to top other types of meat.
Orecchiette with Sausage, Beans and Mascarpone sounded really good. I like pasta. I like cheese. I like beans. I like sausage. How could you go wrong? It didn't taste bad, it was just really, really boring. I mean look at the picture - it's practically GREY! It actually tasted grey. I mean if colors had tastes, this dish was definitely grey!
