Favorite Winter Dish...

Hey all,

Looks like there is always a good discussion going on here. If I am gonna spend my time on the net I mine as well do with a good group of chefs.
Last night I ran my all time favorite winter dish as a special, Osso Bucco.

What's yours?

Joe...

Pineapple and sour cherry strudel. Recipe will be posted on the cheftalk home page soon.

Beef stew with wine and rosmary over noodles.

Herb crusted homemade pizza, keeps the whole house warm and smelling wonderful!Will Post recipe on cheftalk home page soon too.

Favorite dish since school has been a duck confit. Finally fit in into this winter's menu and loving it. I take the time to do it right and let it sit for three weeks before using it. Incredible.

There is nothing like a roasted lamb leg, dowsed in port on an open-pit chock full of pine! You haven't seen smoke until your fire pit is roaring and the snow is falling! I bake my bread right over the logs.... great flavor!

Anything braised is great for the wintertime. Nice and hearty and warm.

Braises, stews, etc. I love them all! Fall and winter are my favorite times of year for food. I love the hearty, rustic warmth of dishes such as braised oxtails, lamb shanks, venison stew and good chili. In fact just made a killer venison stew with deer meat that my brother shot in Montana. Cooked it with onions, carrots, celery, and parsnips. Flavored it with cinnamon, clove, red wine, sage and chipotle. Then served it in a roasted acorn squash. Thinking of running it at the restaurant in some form or another.

reiterating the duck confit by way of cassoulet, a good bottle of Zin and crusty warm bread.

chef Joe, my sentiments lie with you and the great osso bucco you cant beat it another favourite is a big bowl of thai green curry with lots of liquid so it is eaten like a soup.

Lamb shanks has to be very high on my list. But Number one for me is Shepards Pie. It's comfort food at its best and reminds me of my childhood.
