About


This recipe is very flexible.  Vary the marinade and the final sauce to taste.  I often start with a vinegar-and-oil-based bottled salad dressing for a marinade.  The acid in the marinade and in the braising liquid help to tenderize the meat.  Check out my recipes at http://heidicookssupper.blogspot.com
