Whatcha Making for Supper?

I'm playing with steak au Poivre again tonight. So I don't completely forget it.

I picked up a nicely marbled strip steak (and some spinach :) ) at the store today for the host meat.
Sounds good! I have steak on the menu this week, next Saturday I think, and will try the au poivre method. The recipe I found (Seriouseats.com) calls for pepper only on one side. I like their logic of still having the seared steak flavor and fond for the sauce. They add the other half of the cracked pepper to the sauce.

Thanks for the great idea! I love trying new things. And I love pepper.
 
Ham fried rice and Hawaiian rolls that aren't pretty 😐 but taste pretty good

I've done it both ways, with the cracked peppercorns on one side and on both sides. I like the one side method better. Both sides is too much pepper for my taste. I use green peppercorns in the sauce, too.

Linguini & clams, salad, crusty bread.

Going to try reconstituting one of the dishes I freeze dried. It was delicious when it was fresh made, so we shall see. We did try the freeze dried eggs a couple days ago and they were delicious. Tasted like eggs. Imagine that.
