valentine’s day dinner

hoping to do something a bit different… i decided to make a pleasant elegant meal for valentines day — that we might eat in the dining room, instead of the couch!

after a bit of thinking about what might brighten an otherwise dreary february — i settled on duck breast with candied orange peels and a roasted mushroom risotto (and a de(re?)constructed caesar salad on the side…).

this is a pretty simple meal… with a few simple underlying techniques.
