New recipe, May 22, 2013

We had a nice top sirloin with alder smoked salt. The new recipes are Pot Roasted Artichokes from the May 2013 Bon Appétit, and Mango Salad from the January 2002 Gourmet. The artichokes are awesome, they get a 5. The mango salad gets a 4.

Wine: Forgeron 2009 Cabernet Sauvignon--great with the meat and mango salad, predictably does not play well the the artichokes!
