Having eaten this at The Shed in Santa Fe (where this recipe comes from many, many, many times over the years, I can tell you that this recipe is exactly the same and tastes great! Comes out tasting and looking exactly the same.
I've never had a problem with it setting up properly, even with Albuquerque being about 1700 feet lower.

Excellent recipe worth a 5 star rating, however it did take 40 minutes to fully rise and brown. Great flavor and texture, our dinner guests LOVED this dish!

Taste was good, but it didn't rise in recommended time, I had to add at least 15 minutes and it was still a bit raw inside. Maybe because I'm at sea level.
