Experiment 12 - The Selection

Another busy week at work, and late selection post.

Today's selection comes from the Courant's "Recipe Exchange" column, dated Wednesday, November 5, 1985.  I had bought my first house in June of that year.  I suppose I had great visions of cooking all sorts of wonderful meals there.  At least I'm finally getting around to cooking them.  Just in a different location.  Reminders like this do make me miss Connecticut some.  Anyway, this week (possibly even later today) I'll be attempting ...


Scallops Mornay
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/4 teaspoon salt.
dash of white pepper
8 ounces fresh or frozen scallops
1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
2 tablespoons chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/3 cup milk
1/4 shredded Swiss cheese (1 ounce)
2 tablespoons snipped parsley

This recipe states it serves two, so that's a nice change from having a week's worth of leftovers from a single experiment.
