Used Kenji's Beef Wellington recipe tonight and it was a big hit with the fam. Skipped the foie gras, and to be honest I'm glad I did. It was incredibly rich already, especially because this was just an informal "Fancy Friday" dinner in our house. Took out right at 120° and allowed rest for 10 min. Served with option of "shortcut" demi glace and/or horseradish cream sauce.

Side note:
I think this was a significant meal for my young son. He is a meat and potatoes kid, so it certainly wasn't a revelation for him in the sense that he tried something he's never considered before. But he did tell me how impressive I am and how he'll remember it forever. I hope he grows up to love making food for his family as much as I do!

    You should try it once with the foie gras, it’s all about the fat

  2. Looks great! Any tips for someone who wants to attempt it?
