How to Eat—and Cook—Like a New President

They don't look easy, but the recipes of the food served at yesterday's chaotic Inaugural Luncheon have been an online hit. "The recipes page has been the most visited page of the inaugural website," remarked Sen. Dianne Feinstein, the chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee on Inaugural Ceremonies, at the event. The menu consisted of a seafood stew, a brace of American birds served with sour cherry chutney and molasses sweet potatoes, and for dessert, apple cinnamon sponge cake.

We had an inaugural dinner on Tuesday and served the stew, which took all afternoon to make, but it was worth it! One of my guests was a French chef, and he gave it high marks, so whoever devised this recipe and chose it for the luncheon made a great choice. My only caveat is that it was REALLY expensive!
