Clueless in Carniceria

While weighing  to read or not read the+butcher+and+the+vegetarian book, the decision was made as soon as I read of the tea and cookies blog.

A vegeterain starts to follow Judy Rodger's instructions from zuni cafe cook book to make chicken broth.
Her reaction on unwrapping the parcel - 'There is a bit of blood on the paper, but the smell of fresh meat -a clean smell, really - makes me think of rain'.
