Way too fishy!
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

This came out wet and fishy tasting. The white asparagus never cooked and there was far too much liquid after baking for the... stated time. I ended up having to cook it on the stovetop to dry it out a bit.Read more

My First Attempt at Paella
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I wanted more flavor for all the effort. Could be that my "pinch" saffron, wasn't as much as the chef's "pinch". And too... much olive oil to begin with. The meats wouldn't "brown" as much as they floated and cooked in the olive oil. Any suggestions from others as to my next paella to try?Read more

This recipe has a lot of ingredients which may seem intimidating, but it is very easy and well worth any effort made. Try it!... Guarenteed this fabulous chef will not let you down with this recipe. Also very close to what you would have in Spain or France (pays basque region) restaurants.Read more
