Welcome back @slowcookingchef!
Isn't it amazing that you grew up eating this dish at Christmas time, made by your mom's two hands and then now you're making it yourself?
Nicely executed. The egg-washed puff pastry cooked to a nice golden color and gave it a beautiful sheen, making for a beautifully textured crust.The beef looks absolutely delicious and cooked perfectly!
Thanks for sharing your national holiday food! Looking forward to seeing more of your creations!
Thank you very much, @offoodandart! Whats funny is I never learned cooking as a kid with my mother it never interested me. I learned to cook later in my 20's, but she tried my wellington and loved it. The meat was so tender and the puff pastry nice and crunchy. It was a great meal. Thanks for doing this contest, it's a great motivator.
That’s fairly typical, I guess, that we don’t have the interest at a younger age. And then we evolve 😊.
It’s impressive that your mom loved it. It does sound like a perfect Beef Wellington. It surely looked like it.
