"Full title (doesn't fit above): Roasted Lamb Medallions with Maitake Mushrooms, Braised Pistachios and Blackberry- Recipe by Stephanie Izard, (Top Chef Season 4) I wanted so much to be able to taste this dish. The judges described the braised pistachios as somewhat of a revelation. Now I can have this at home, but will save this for something special."
