This was a sublime winter meal, and almost embarrassingly easy to put together. I used a recipe, with almost no deviations, from a specialty cookbook I bought in Brooklyn almost as soon as I had learned that I could buy local goat cuts in the Union Square Greenmarket. The title is ‘Goat: Meat, Milk, Cheese‘ …

Denver steak, savory; tomato; Brussels sprouts, balsamic
The Denver steak is a fairly-recent innovation, and this was probably the first time we had ever had it. I know it’s the first time I’ve cooked it, but it won’t be the last. The flavor is as good as beef gets; it’s surprisingly tender, especially for a piece cut from the chuck; it can …
pork chop with myrtle; Brussels sprouts; roast sweet potato
I figured pork chops would be an excellent side for the sweet potatoes I had been looking forward to, but the chops from Flying Pigs Farm are always so good they weren’t going to be incidental to anything. Also, as excited as I was about the potatoes, I was equally enthusiastic about using myrtle on the pork for the …
duck, rosemary; tomato; Brussels sprouts, breadcrumbs
I’ve cooked seared duck breast more often than I can count, but it’s never the same, even when the trimmings are, and it’s never a disappointment. This wonderful local bird is available all year round, but I can’t quite get used to enjoying Brussels sprouts in the middle of the winter. one duck breast (.85 lbs) from Hudson River …
marinated grilled swordfish; roasted Brussels sprouts
The American Seafood folks are back in the Union Square Greenmarket, and inside their stall on Wednesday Warren seemed to know exactly what I wanted, pointing to 2 perfectly-sized and shaped, very fresh looking swordfish, showing only the tiniest bit of a bloodline. * two 6-ounce swordfish steaks off of Scott Rucky’s fishing vessel, ‘Dakota’, from American Seafood Company …
John Dory, thyme; mushrooms; Brussels sprouts, sage
I picked up 2 beautiful John Dory fillets and then bought some mushrooms before checking my Food Blog to see whether I had a formula which would combine both. Once home, I learned that I had never prepared the them together, and didn’t have a recipe in my reference library. By that time I was in a bit of …
venison; watercress; roasted fingerlings; brussels sprouts
I wasn’t looking for game when I went to the Greenmarket last Saturday. I already had plans for our entrée that evening, but I stopped to say hello to the people at Quattro’s Poultry & Game Farm. I went home with some venison. While at the stand I had noticed a single venison steak at the bottom of one of their …
‘gilded’ flounder; roasted golden beets, Brussels sprouts
Golden were the fish and the beets both, but the leeks, micro greens, and Brussels sprouts, also a part of this meal, might better represent the gold of the sun, barely visible in late January (fairly or not, we associate that orb with the green above ground more than the roots below). The date was January 30. I …
smoked whitefish, cress; elk steak; brussels sprouts, roots
We had some elk in the freezer, remaining from some given to us last spring by a friend who has a cousin who hunts, in the wilds of Kansas. At that time it had been a sirloin steak; on Sunday it was a flank steak. I’ve had very little experience with that cut, even with beef, so I did some …
breaded herbed swordfish, micro radish; brussels sprouts
This was another easily-assembled meal, and one which is always regardless of what subtle variations I’ve made to the basic recipe. Brussels sprouts always seem to be a great accompaniment, even for fish. two 8-ounce swordfish steaks off of Scott Rucky’s fishing vessel, ‘Dakota’, out of East Islip, from Long Island’s American Seafood Company stall in the …
