Recipe Review

12th January 2011

aj12754 from Montclair, NJ

I took me a while to warm up to these lentils -- the flavor is more subtle than my usual Barefoot Contessa lentil recipes. I did end up cooking them longer and using more stock than Rodgers calls for. The final product -- which I tasted on its own before topping with salmon -- was very nice.

Served as a base for a salmon dish braised in the same red wine (I used a wonderful pinot noir from Chateau de Costco) and it was fine -- although the sauce for the fish would probably have stood out a little more on a base of rice or mashed potatoes.
