Every Monday night, we have dinn with our friends Jeff and Jenni Pollack. You were first introduced to Jeff through his company, Spindrift Surfboards, and Jenni when we gave you her blog link of her Antarctica project for TAMUCC's Harte Research Institute (see older posts).
Last night, she upped the anti times 10 with her banana soup and homemade goat cheese, arugula & fig pizza. The banana soup was a completely unexpected, truly amazing dish - similar to Tom Kha, my favorite Thai soup, sans coconut with a banana twist - even cilantro (another fav of mine)! Try it at home yourself. I highly recommend serving it in your favorite ceramic mug, just like Jenni - such a sweet touch! For wine pairing, we sipped on a buttery Chardonnay with the soup while the pizza was cooking and a jammy Malbec - such a great compliment to the sweetness of the fig and the creamy tartness of the goat cheese (try Maipe 2007 Malbec from Mendoza, Argentina).
