Brother-in-Law served us bacon wrapped scallops (coated with brown sugar) and fresh Maine lobster bisque.
What are you cooking today.

Sounds delish. Next time, you may want to try mixing a jigger of black cherry brandy with an equal measure of virgin olive oil. Paint the scallops with this mix before wrapping in bacon. The olive oil is just to hold the wash together. The sweetness and smokiness of the black cherry brandy really enhances the mild flavor of the scallops. The black cherry takes on a slightly different sweetness when it caramelizes on the grill.
What, no wine pairing suggestion?
I will pass this tip on to the bro-in-law, and try it for myself at some point. Is black cherry brandy common?
Tried my hand at Beef Wellington tonight. Instead of dijon, the coating is made with garlic, finely-chopped shiitake mushrooms, and spices blended in a pate de campagne. Served with a side of roasted brussel sprouts in onion and bacon. Delish!!!
Mexican last night, made at around 10 lat night. 6 tostadas for me. Tonight making steaks for the family
