Big Disappointment

Way too much work, and expensive cheese, for very LITTLE flavor. It all mushed together and was very bland.




Fantastic!

I had been wanting to try this recipe for a while and finally had the chance. It was absolutely delicious, gorgeous, and unique to everyone at the event. The combination of textures and flavors (creamy and tangy, crispy and chewy) wa amazing. I used some of the pea puree to mix with the greens (in addition to the lemon dressing) and the colors and flavors were absolutely brilliant! The recipe made enough for the party, and it was even better as left overs the next few days. I will defintitely make this one again. Thanks Michael!!!

I made this part of my menu for my daughter's 1st birthday party. It was a huge hit and very pretty!

This was delicious, and had an AMAZING depth and complexity of flavor. Perfect for entertaining because all the steps can be made ahead and combined 45 minutes before you're ready to serve it. It is stunningly beautiful as a bonus, and not to difficult at tall.




Hearty Old-World Flavor

What a gorgeous, brilliant green presentation! This delicious panzanella is even more fantastic the next day. The light lemony greens complement the rich, hearty panzanella for a tasty, beautiful dish. Thanks, Michael! We love your show and Napa Valley, too.

The individual components were fabulous but the dressing turned the delicious bread cubes into gluggy mush. I'll try it again but mix it all at the last minute and keep the bread crisp and the lettuce more lightly dressed.
