    Not only did your Wellington turn out beautifully, the video itself was very enjoyable to watch. My late husband, a chef, made me a lovely Beef Wellington for our 1st New Year's eve together when we were dating. He set a table up in front of the Christmas tree, complete with nice tableware, linens, & candles. With the lights from the tree & the candlelight, we had a delicious, romantic dinner. He asked me to marry him that night. We had nearly 30 years together. Thank you & your marvelous "Baby Wellington" for bringing one of my best memories back to life.

    I just really needed to say this. I lost my love for cooking. I had a passion to possibly go to culinary school. I genuinely enjoyed it. I cooked for my girlfriend and her daughter (that I saw as my own) in our own little 2 bedroom apartment almost everyday...until she broke up with me. I was devastated. It wasn’t until over a month I realized when I finally would eat food I ordered it, never cooked. I couldn’t cook for myself. It was something that I gave to the little family I had made for myself and no longer have. But this video. This was lovely. Artistic. It just really touched my passion for cooking. I can tell it’s something you genuinely enjoy, and I can relate to that. It’s been what feels like forever since I gave myself a night to just get some fresh ingredients, open a bottle of wine, and create something. I’m off work tomorrow night, and I think I’m gonna do it again. But this time, I’m doing it for myself. Thank you.

      Last time i talked about recipies and what was going on my kitchen was when i had a handmade spinach pie on the oven while i was cooking i tthink it was beef on the pot while i had in mind to make a dessert and thinking all the great ingredients i had on my fridge to follow a greek traditional recipie for pie with herbs. They made fun of me. Ohh 4 things... too much..you re not serious... I never talked them again. Never shared with them even one slice of a cake... all the time they thought they knew everything... always all of them so judgemental... I was thinking somehow this could be changed someday but like that it would never did... from a point of view im glad i didnt offer them anything i have cooked till now.. cause sure they didnt deserved it.. For some people to cook is equal to express your feelings to show that you care for someone and you want him have fun somehow...and it doesnt matter if your kitchen is small with only 2 chairs or its luxurious with 10 seats... it doesnt matter if your ingredients are the most expensive or not... its what you think when you cook for people you care...
      And for the story... the spinach pie was almost instant in small oven pan so it was about 6 pieces.. the meat on the pot was for two for 1 day... and the desert could be preserved in the fridge for many days... i was cooking different things at the same time like i was waiting to accept people wanted to have a buffet in fornt of them.... and they were talking like that....

And those scum from school... someone went to prison, someone drank himself to death, someone works as a janitor for pennies... Hold on, bro! Everything will be fine. Time will pass, and you will forget all these school things.

    @dredge4176 3 년 전 +382

    Hey Alvin, just a small tip,
    Your cast iron skillet makes oil angry at you because there's water in the tiny little pores of the cast iron, normally you fill those little pores with oil and that makes the skillet nice and non-stick. A cleaning method i recommend is putting Salt and Water in the pan, boiling it while you lightly scrape the surface with a spatula/spoon to remove gunk, toss out the water and salt mix, keep the pan upside down on the counter with a little gap for water vapors to escape, then after an hour or 2 turn it over, lightly oil the pan and use a piece of paper towel to rub the oil around the surface of the skillet. you'll have less angry oil and your skillet will last longer ;)

      in a real restaurant setting where they serve a wellington like this, they'd have a big bin of duxelles, sauce, and dough sheets made up every other day, and a steady supply of aged beef (in smaller, individually-sized cuts) rotated in the fridge every other day. They'd only need to assemble and cook the final product when it is ordered.

Place directly on the baking tray on a baking paper. Bake at 180 degrees Celsius (it took about one hour because my meat was very cold, but can take less time). Do not open the oven. Internal temperature must reach 52 degrees Celsius. Next time I will take less ham. It was a tiny too salted. Beware of salting to much the duxelles. Made a port wine sauce, less bitter than the red wine sauce.
