Dad's Week · For My Father — The Family Table, Cooked for Dad
a week of our favorites picked for Dad — everything mild, no alcohol, easy on the salt, and any wild game swapped for what's at the store. The centerpiece is the one he'll remember: Kelly's venison & fig, with a beef tenderloin standing in. And because half of why these are worth cooking is who they came from, each night is credited to its person — Marm, David, Kelly, Terri, Aunt Joan, Jordan. (Every recipe in this book now carries a low-salt note and an alcohol swap, so any of them is safe for his table.)
