The other day I talked about our trip to Blanco Texas. It was the Lavender Festival. We brought home a bunch of Lavender and a Lavender steak recipe.
Last night we gave it a try.
The recipe called for the steak to be pan fried. . The glaze is made with red wine vinegar, little olive oil, with trimmed Lavender flower. Simple seasoning of coarse salt and cracked peppercorns.
I served it with sauteed onions and mushrooms, broccoli, and sweet potato.
Well: First, I am not a fan of pan fried steak. Second, I just couldn’t get past thinking of Lavender soap with each bite.
Every time I smell Lavender it is from soaps and air fresheners. Every other bar of soap Tracy buys is infused with Lavender oil. Our dish soap has a Lavender smell.
So for us, the recipe was not a do over. Every bite just reminded me of soap.
It was worth a shot.
