    • Jun 13thLavender Pork Chops

      Last fall, we visited Lavender Hills, in Augusta, and I bought some lavender for cooking. If you’ve never visited there, I recommend it.  We enjoyed the experience a lot; it’s a lovely place and their products are really nice.  Deciding what to make with the lavender wasn’t easy. Having some extra time, without classes to teach, I started experimenting. The results were very good and I think you might like to try it yourself.

      Ingredients:

      • 4 small center cut boneless pork chops
      • 1 cup Elk Creek Pinot Grigio
      • 1 and 1/2 T. Balsamic Vinegar (from Stuarto’s)
      • 1 t. coarse ground black pepper
      • 1 t. sea salt
      • 1 t. rosemary
      • 1 t lavender from Lavender Hills

      Trim fat from the chops and cut each into two pieces, place in a 4 x 6″ baking dish.  Mix remaining ingredients and pour over pork chops.  Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour.  Uncover and continue baking at 425 degrees for 15 minutes.
