Challenge Accepted: Tara, Bring It On!

This was a tough choice. Making sauerkraut is something I've wanted to do since reading "The Corrections." (Although, to be honest, I'm not a big sauerkraut fan). And then of course I'm a big fan of cake, but Katy's challenge involved a cake that serves 150! Beef Wellington just didn't spark my fancy and Timpano is such my favorite part of the movie "Big Night" that I didn't want to spoil it forever with my own kitchen disaster.Which leaves Tara's challenge of "Thai chicken barley risotto." I have no idea what this entails. But I like risotto. I like thai chicken. And I occassionally like barley. This could work. Ok, Tara, e-mail me the recipe and I'll get cooking! And get your kitchen ready for when I challenge you back!
