Pot Roast with Porcini Mushrooms



iPad, ready for action. Really a great tool (paired with Dropbox) for the kitchen. I sync my lappie to the iPad with a Recipes folder. Wrapped in Saran, it's well-protected, and not as much of a space/damage risk as having the laptop in the kitchen. Amazingly, the touchscreen works really well through the wrap.
Browning on all sides. This is the new Mario Batali Dutch Oven we got for our engagement. Half the price of the La Creuset, and just as badass.

At rest, next to the chopped veggies.
Building the braise, including browned veggies, San Marzano tomatoes (Rogee-crushed), a cup of Simi Cabernet, some dried oregano from my container garden, 2 cups of Mama Resnicoff's chicken stock (from the freezer, when Sweetie had her knee surgery).

Into the oven for 3 hours, while I go to do yoga down the street.
