It seems the eco-terrorists have invaded the white house kitchen. The vegans have removed turkey, actually any form of meat, from the thanksgiving menu. What kind of bullshit is that? It's Obamessiah bullshit, that's what. I guessed after Obama blessed the bird, he told the kitchen to skip the meat (an option of green curry prawns is not meat). Do you think this is an accident? Nope. it's a repudiation of American history, meaning the pilgrims, which implies the manifest destiny that Obama so intensely eschews.
All I can hope for is that Mario Batali and Emeril Lagasse kick Flay's and Comerford's ass on the next season of Iron Chef America. Comerford is the executive chef of the white house, and judging from the menu of thanksgiving, I don't think very much of her.
Here is the menu:
Potato and eggplant salad
White House arugula with onion seed vinaigrette
2008 sauvignon blanc, Modus Operandi, Napa Valley, Calif.
___
Red lentil soup with fresh cheese
2006 Riesling, Brooks "Ara," Willamette Valley, Ore.
___
Roasted potato dumplings with tomato chutney, chick peas and okra or green curry prawns, caramelized salsify with smoked collard greens and coconut-aged basmati
2007 grenache, Beckmen Vineyards, Santa Ynez, Calif.
___
Pumpkin pie tart, pear tatin, whipped cream and caramel sauce
Sparkling chardonnay, Thibaut Janisson Brut, Monticello, Va.
___
Petits fours and coffee
Cashew brittle
Pecan pralines
Passion fruit and vanilla gelees
Chocolate-dipped fruit
May be I should be the executive chef at the white house. This debacle surely would not have happened. Then again, Obama would never hire me, even for janitor. His loss, at least in the kitchen.
Thank you for reading this blog.
