      @acutaboverecipes7422 7 місяців тому

      Thanks for reaching out. Of course I would explain that brandy is included in the dressing, it is what makes it unique in flavor. Any quality restaurant will not hide facts like that, as well as other ingredients that would pertain to allergies. But, just as I have done with my son, it is the parents responsibility to figure out what is acceptable in a recipe, or on a menu.

    • @acutaboverecipes7422
      @acutaboverecipes7422 7 місяців тому

      Thank you for reaching out! It all depends on the amount of stock you are using. The beauty of making your own espagnole sauce, is you can taylor it to your liking and preference. This video was around a quart of beef stock, I used approximately 3 ounces of tomato paste. If you use to little you would not get the richness from the paste nor the slight acidity of the tomato. If you are unsure, On stocks and sauces, I err on side of using more, than less. I believe in video I showed the amount of Onions, celery, carrots, garlic. The seasoning was 1t thyme and a bayleaf or two, adjust with salt at the end. Let me know how it turns out!!!!

  • @Remagwodahs
    @Remagwodahs 8 місяців тому

    An interesting video. If you hadn't access to pheasant, would an equivalent amount of chicken work? I did notice you added the number of pheasant breasts in your recipe card rather than the weight.

    • @acutaboverecipes7422
      @acutaboverecipes7422 7 місяців тому

      Sorry for the delayed response! Yes absolutely the equivalent amount of chicken is good. I really did not think about weight of the protein, it is an automatic reflex for me of gauging the size of the protein to the amount of people I am cooking for in a recipe. The Pheasant breasts I use, average around 3 to 6oz each. For a soup, as an appetizer before a meal I would plan maybe 3-4oz of chicken per person. If The soup was going to be your dinner/entree then I would increase the protein to 6-8 oz. Of course, you would adjust vegetable amounts as well for each scenario. Making a soup or any food item, is more about the technique than the actual recipe. If that makes sense? Let me know how it turns out if you decide to try it. Be Well!!!

    • @Remagwodahs
      @Remagwodahs 7 місяців тому

      Your comment about cooking being about technique more than following a recipe is spot on. In my case, though, I'm terrible at guessing the weights of things, especially things I've never cooked with before, like pheasant. But, thank you for replying and helping me out with the weights. Soups are my favorite kind of food to make (so easy, so many portions, so cost effective) so I tend to collect recipes for them. Yours is going to be added to that collection.@@acutaboverecipes7422

      Absolutely! Normally I add fresh garlic 1st to the butter. That nutty-ish, roasted garlic flavor is what I like in my gravy. But unfortunately, I did not have any the day I was recording. I have done what you said as well, and that does intensify the mushroom flavor! I have always said you can give 10 people the same ingredients to make chicken soup, and you will get 10 different flavor profiles. Happy Holidays!

      Thank you for your thoughts on the video that helps me going forward on my next videos. Yes the date date is from 11/22. It is a lot of work, but I handle the whole process from the field to freezer. By not going to the butcher, I eliminate my worries of cross contamination and temperature control of the meat. I also switched to vacuum sealing my harvest because it does take me about a year to go through all of it. That purchase has changed the game for me because plastic wrap, zip lock bags or combination of the two, I would lose some to "freezer burn" in about 6 months.

    I made this today, and although i'm not sure if mine tastes anything like your original, it tastes great!! 😊 In order to storing it in the fridge for a few days, i omitted the shalot, garlic and parsley so far, as i didn't know if it would change the taste over time. I'm going to complete it the last minute before serving.....The part of the brandy and exactly the same danish cheese i also have to figure out, as i can't get my hands on St. Pete's cheese around here.....maybe it's just under a different name.....i used St. Agure from france... Anyway, thank you for sharing the recipe, and for the inspiration to my first blue cheese dressing !! 😊😊

      Hi Marion! Thank you for dropping a comment. I'm glad you tried it. Nice! choice of cheese. If the blue cheese has a prominent tangy flavor, then I'm sure your Dressing will taste like mine. As for the shallot and garlic, do not be afraid to mix it in. It will change for the better! I've had 2 observations: The garlic will get more pronounced, and you should get about 4-5 days in refrigerator before the taste starts to decline (not go bad, just not fresh like the first few days). Source what you have available to you in your area (the brandy and the Danish style blue cheese) Enjoy!

      Quick answer, my motivation is simple. I want to share my knowledge with my son, and with my clients that have been asking me for a cookbook for years. I did not want to go that route. So, by posting these videos, I wanted to challenge myself, but did not realize how far out of my comfort zone I was stepping as well as how much I just bit off. So my challenge begins.
