Another cooking night is complete. I deboned the chicken quarters I bought earlier as best I could, but it wasn't as easy as normal because things were cut oddly compared to what I was expecting. I was lazy and made herb roasted chicken again.

On the more adventurous/new side of things, I made polenta - just your standard milk, water, cornmeal, butter, salt and cheese. After it set, I carved it into nice little blocks that are now wrapped in plastic & refrigerating for now. I'm going to try deep frying some of it later...it sounded so decadently delicious when my instructor mentioned it in class.

Also in the not done before category is chicken stock making. The newly demeated chicken bones, along with veggies, bay leaves and more frozen bones are simmering over low heat. They have another 8 hours or so to go before I get to strain and chill the whole package. It should go quite nicely with the squash soup I'm planning to make tomorrow.
