New recipe, January 28, 2012

Today's new recipe is breakfast, the Mushroom and Bacon Frittata with Roasted Tomatoes from the December 2010 Bon Appétit. This is really delicious--a definite 4. We modified by using only egg whites (used 2 egg white for each egg in the recipe) instead of whole eggs, and turkey bacon.

We cooked breakfast because we went to Ember for dinner in Breckenridge.  We were last at Ember almost 2 years ago, just after it first opened.  It was quite good then, but it has just gotten better.  The food is beautifully prepared, melding classical techniques with ingredients and flavors from around the world.  The wine list is great, and the staff (at least Melia, who served us) know the wines and potential pairing really well.  We had a wonderful time, and we think Ember is one of the best restaurant in Colorado.
