Instructions
Heat oil in a small saute pan. Cook onions and garlic until soft.
Add wine and reduce by half.
Place the water in a medium saucepan and add 2 tablespoons of salt, bring to a boil. Slowly whisk in the cornmeal and cook for, 15 to 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and spread into a buttered 11 by 17 inch baking sheet. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
Heat the oil in a cast iron skillet or a deep fry to 350 degrees F.
Cut the polenta into 1/2-inch squares. Dredge lightly in cornmeal and fry in batches until golden brown.
Heat a large saute pan over medium heat.
Combine the cheese and flour in a medium bowl.
Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of the cheese into the pan to form a 4-inch circle. Cook until the cheese is somewhat melted but not firm. Using a spatula, turn the cheese over and cook until firm. Drape the crisp over a large rolling pin until cool. Repeat.
Put all ingredients except oil in a blender and blend until smooth. Slowly add the oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place the romaine in a large bowl and toss with some of the dressing. Divide among 4 plates. Scatter croutons around and place a Parmesan crisp in the center of the salad.
Season pork with salt and pepper on both sides.
Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large saute pan until almost smoking. Cook the pork for 3 to 4 minutes on 1 side or until golden brown, turn over, reduce heat to medium and continue cooking to medium doneness.
Remove to a plate and keep warm.
Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat.
Add the garlic and onions and cook until soft.
Add the wine and cook until reduced by half.
Add the stock and cook to a sauce consistency.
Whisk in the mustards and thyme and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Riesling
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Riesling are my top picks for Pork Chops. Chardonnay suits simple chops or chops in a butter or cream sauce, dry riesling complements sweet additions like honey mustard or apples, and pinot noir is a safe bet for pork dishes in general. The Canyon Road Chardonnay with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 10 dollars per bottle.
Canyon Road Chardonnay
The palate is intense, round and soft, with aromas of melon and tropical fruit.
