Country Butcher in Kennett Square, Pa., catered the opening day of "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" project last night and will cater another on Tuesday.
The crew working on the Wilmington house had to be happy campers judging by the menu prepared by chef, Sara McCarthy, a graduate of Johnson and Wales. It included:
Exteme Antipasto Salad - Roasted Eggplant, Plum Tomatoes, Sharp Provolone Cheese, Parma Prosciutto, Kalamata Olives, Fresh Basil, enhanced with a White Truffle Vinaigrette.
Baked Macaroni Au Gratin - Made with four Artisan Cheeses: Stilton Blue, Emmentaler Swiss, Mozzarella, and Canadian Cheddar.
Country Butcher's Signature Sausages - Mild Sausage (one of the shop's "heirloom family recipes dating back to the 1800s") with sauteed Kennett Square Mushrooms, Peppers and Onions
An "Extreme Home Makeover" Cake, made and hand decorated by pastry chef Melissa Jenkins, a graduate of Drexel University, consisted of a two layer full sheet cake of raspberry white Chocolate with Vanilla Buttercream Icing
Dorothy Boxler, who owns Country Butcher with her husband Dan, says the food and cake was transported to the site and filmed by the ABC camera crew.
"The evening was exciting and the food well received," she says. "The cake was cut and served at the home site before being taken to the catering tent (one half block away)
