Chicken Ballantine with Shiitake Mushrooms and Dried Bing Cherries
The hot version of a gallantine, a ballantine is a roulade made of whole meat and forcemeat usually with some extra flavoring. In this case it’s made from an entire chicken. I pureed the dark meat with thyme and mixed it with shiitake mushrooms and dried bing cherries. I pounded the breast meat flat and rolled that around the force meat then rolled the skin around the whole thing. I tied it an roasted it in a 375 ° oven to an internal temperature of 160 degrees. When sliced, the ballantine reveals the inlayed mushrooms and cherries. I served the ballantine with a stone ground mustard sauce, spinach spaetzle, roasted beets, and a celery root puree. I wanted to cook with some strong winter flavors while I could before spring rolls around. The mustard compliments the mushrooms and cherries very well and the spaetzle and beets have a strong but smooth flavor that hold up to the intense flavors of the chicken. Photo by Justin Kern.

I am completely new to operating a blog however I do write in my diary everyday. I'd like to start a blog so I can easily share my personal experience and thoughts online. Please let me know if you have any ideas or tips for new aspiring bloggers. Thankyou!
