Chickpeas with Chanterelles and Black Truffles

Try this gourmet vegetarian dish Chickpeas with Chanterelles and Black truffles; sure to please everyone at your table, as well as the die-hard meat-eater's. (serves 2) NOTE: The mushrooms should be cooked in either cast iron or carbon steel. The pan needs to be heated well first and large enough to hold the mushrooms with room to spare. If the pan is crowded then the mushrooms end up stewing rather than browning. The cast iron/carbon steel gets hot, stays really hot and that helps the rapid evaporation of liquid which is so crucial to a nicely browned mushroom.

History of Foie Gras

History of Foie Gras

Literally translated from French, foie gras means "fat liver," but its origins date back far before French cooking made it a delicacy.  The ancient Egyptians hunted and then domesticated geese, and discovered that waterfowl developed large, fatty livers after eating large amounts in preparation for migration.  To replicate this naturally occurring large liver, the Egyptians, over 4000 years ago, developed the technique now known as gavage to produce a fattier bird.
