I successfully made Oysters and Pearls ala French Laundry. The sabayon was the trickiest part, but damn it was good

Flammkuchen – German pizza with bacon and onions. Turned out awesome. The creme fraiche was like a lab experiment. It was fun, but waiting 24 hour for the creme fraiche to do its thing was maddening

I 2nd the Beef Wellington. Delicious, beautiful but just too much work.

I think what is great about Louisiana cooking i.e. gumbos, etouffees, jambalayas, sauce piquants, etc. is that it may take a while for the prep and cook, but you have amazing leftovers, that last for a really long time. And they seem so complex, yet are simple, get better overnight and are true comfort food.

Anything with emulsion has been frustrating like homemade mayo or toom.


Julia’s Beef Burgundy was an adventure.

I made the Marjolaine. Looked great, tasted good but was very rich.

Stick blender, jar. You’ll succeed at mayo.
