Valentine’s Day Dinner

K fulfilled my heart and belly with his Stuffed Artichokes for Valentine’s Day this year. He added porcini mushroom tortellini to make the meal heartier. I would post the recipe for the five-spice beet soup, but it didn’t come out as I had hoped. It tasted fine, but the texture was a little chunky and raw. Next time, I will roast the beets instead of cooking them in the microwave—I should have known better!

For dessert, we had K’s favorite, Buttermilk Panna Cotta with Raspberry Sauce.
