The Holiday Feast Recap
Just a quick recap to show you part of our holiday feast. I know, I can’t help it but to post the picture of the dessert first. I made this festive Bûche de Noël au chocolat (Chocolate Yule Log) again this year. Click here for the recipe and pictorial if you’re interested. I also made the Vanilla Meringue Mushrooms (cookies) for decorations as well. Please click here for the recipe and pictorial.
The Roasted Shrimps with Asparagus and Avocados were specially prepared for my Son. That was his favorite dish of all time. I made a simple Meyer Lemon and Herb dressing that serve on the side. Click here for the recipe. We also had creamed corn, tuna sashimi, Chinese sticky rice, and tuna poke as side dishes. Unfortunately, we were all too busy chatting, eating, drinking and having fun. I almost didn’t have a chance to take picture of our scrumptious entrée, the Mustard crusted Prime Rib Roast! It was so tender, so moist, flavorful and perfectly medium rare (which is my family's preferred "done-ness" for prime ribs.)
Here’s a picture of the Prime Rib taken after carving. And of course, I forgot to take picture with the Au Jus. I definitely will make this Prime Rib Roast again. I’ll share the recipe next time, I promise. That way, I have an excuse to make it soon again.
Hope you all had a wonderful holiday celebration with your family and loved ones.

DeleteOh what a delicious meal, but that mustard crusted Prime Rib roast is so tempting...i am always for meat hehe... Have a wonderful, healthy and sucessful New Year, Amy!!!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your well wishes, Sandra. Wish you the same as well. Yes, I love meat too. I don't think I can be a vegetarian at all. Okay, maybe for just a Monday, every once in a while. :P
DeleteWhat an amazing collection! I love that Chocolate Yule log, simply irresistible. Happy New Year to you and family too..
ReplyDeleteThank you. Wish you a wonderful 2013 as well.
DeleteMy husband would go bonkers for that huge hunk of prime rib. I love the crust on it, too.
ReplyDeleteOh yeah...the prime rib was so good. I'm so glad I got a bigger size rib than the butcher suggested because everyone got a thick slice and finished them all. I only had a little bit left over and they were still good the next day thinly sliced in noodle soup. :P
DeleteHi Amy, wow.... excellent holiday feast. Everything look so mouthwatering. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year to you, wish you all the best in 2013.
Thank you, Amelia. :)
DeleteThe Prime Rib looks perfect and the Holiday Yule Log is cute. I want to be able to make one of those next time. Happy New Year to you and your family, Amy!

DeleteWow, what a great holiday meal! looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThank you. Glad you like it.
DeleteThat meat is cooked PERFECTLY! I'm still trying to get my parents to at LEAST go to medium and they just won't do it, lol.
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess everyone has different preference. :) My parents are the one who taught me to go medium rare and I loved it that way since I was a kid. :P
DeleteI love your Buche de Noel - very pretty!
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear. :) Glad you like it.
DeleteWhoa, my husband will be all over this Prime Rib! Your Chocolate Yule Log looks so pretty! I don't know if I ever can make that cake... Such a feast!
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, the Prime Rib was the star. I can't wait to make it again. Check out my chocolate yule log recipe, I've step by step pictorial and it's easier to make than it looks. :)
