SMW 2011

[NARSES2]

Only a few weeks to go so I thought I'd post a general invitation to anyone going to come along and say hello to the lads behind the What If SIG stand. Meet some of the faces. We don't bite, well maybe Terry does but we keep him well muzzled - just don't steal his duck 

[ALVAMA]

Are these days in USA and UK?

[Hobbes]

This particular invitation is to the UK.

You're also welcome at the IPMS Netherlands nationals, 22 October in Nieuwegein (http://www.euroscalemodelling.nl/), but there won't be a What-if SIG stand there this year.

Duck a l'Orange Recipe

Ingredients:

    ¼ cup granulated sugar
    2 tablespoons water
    2 tablespoons Sherry vinegar
    1 ½ cups orange juice
    2 tablespoons shallots, minced
    1 1/2 cups chicken stock
    4 oranges, sections cut from membranes
    2 duck breast halves (or one rubber duck), seasoned with salt and pepper
    ¼ cup unsalted butter
    2 tablespoons orange zest

Preparation:

Boil the sugar and water for several minutes, until the syrup caramelizes and turns a golden brown color. Add the vinegar, juice, shallots, and chicken stock and simmer until the sauce is reduced to a little less than a cup. Add butter and 1 tablespoon of orange zest. Stir in orange sections.

In a skillet, sear the duck breasts over high heat. Cook the duck for about 9-11 minutes on each side. Pour the prepared sauce over the duck breasts and garnish with the remaining orange zest.

This duck a l'orange recipe makes 2 servings.

Might have been having a couple of discreet sherries with my 'care-in-the-community' ward, Dork the Kit Slayer, on Friday... and we may have discussed our usual Sunday appearence at this event... or not... it's a little bit hazy.

Apparently I might have agreed with the originator of this thread to be his assistant - (some might say b*tch, but they simply dont understand us  ) - setter-upper on Friday afternoon.
