20. Roast capon

Sun Apr 9, 2023, 05:34 PM

Apr 2023

Capon is hard to find anymore (and this one was marked down because it hadn't sold well, got it for 99 cents/pound) - I think people may not know what a capon is, and since chicken has such big breasts nowadays, it isn't the big deal it once was.

Sides were mashed potatoes and gravy, and roast asparagus with parmesan and lemon. Dessert will be yellow cake with strawberries and whipped cream. I tried several hacks to improve the cake mix, so we'll have to see how that came out.
