    The problem with the non-dispersal of the cream is because you used the mandolin, which made for overly thin and uniform slices that pack too densely. You need more rustic, variable and generally thicker hand cut slices to leave some natural space that will eventually be filled with the liquid.

    Yukon Gold potatoes were named after the Yukon River that flows through Canada and Alaska. Dr. Johnston selected the Yukon River as inspiration for the potato as he had previously used other river names, such as the Huron and Rideau, for previous potato cultivars. The Yukon River played a historic role as the primary method of transportation in the Klondike Gold Rush from 1896 to 1899. Historians also note that potatoes were a valued commodity among miners, also known as prospectors, during the Gold Rush, further cementing Yukon as a fitting name.

    The reason you had difficulty getting the cream mixture to disperse around. The inside of the torte is because your potatoes were too thin and they create a laminated barrier effect… I wouldn’t go any less than a scant quarter inch of thickness on the potatoes.

    If, like me, you sometimes spill things on the bottom of your oven, cover it in salt. It will absorb any liquid, stop the burning, and any smoke rolling out of your oven from continuing. Then once the oven is cool, use a firm edged but non-scratchy tool (I use a pancake turner that is metal with a coating on it) dislodge the salt and what it covers. Then use a whisk broom and dust pan to sweep out the oven. Then clean as needed.

If it doesn't look like a thick layer of pure white salt, add more salt. I ended up putting almost 2 lbs last Thanksgiving when my turkey broth slipped badly. But dont leave the salt past the oven cooling, depending on what is absorbed, it can put the enamel with repeated heating and cooling cycles.

      That's because it's different than a cookbook of random common recipes. Her books are designed to teach you a specific methodology and style of cooking. One that involves the repeated use of many recipes as components of other recipes. You're meant to learn the basic recipes as a foundation and then when you get into the more complex stuff you don't need to refer back to the recipe when something else tells you to prepare one of the mother sauces, etc.
      It's a perfectly logical way to set things up if you're actually trying to teach people to cook. It's not a good way to set things up for people that are just going to pull the book out once a year and jump straight to one of the most complex things in it as a gimmick.

    Tourte Limousine is an attractive recipe from the Limoges region of France and, as an old 4-H kid who spent a lot of time around livestock ... there is a breed of wonderful French beef cattle called Limousin! They are hardy and active, heavily muscled, rich gold in color, have great "fertility," have higher than average dressing percentage (ratio of carcass to live weight) and yield (ratio of meat to carcass), high feed conversion efficiency, and their ability to produce lean, tender meat.

      While cooking the pork meat absorbs the cream and eggs as well as all the lipophilic aromatics from the herbes that went in the fat of the cream and butter.
      Herbs are parsley and chives, no basil. I know a lot of people use taragon in their familial recipes and I approve.

    A pocket full of rye.

    It's Saturday morning here in Australia and this looks absolutely delicious for a brunch dish. I'm wondering if maybe the reason the cream mix didn't disperse properly is because the potato slices were cut quite thin?

    • @SarahRenz59
      @SarahRenz59 Рік тому +12

      @Jessica Haythorpe, I was thinking the same thing. The thin potato slices probably fused together, making it impossible for the cream mixture to permeate the dish. Thicker slices would allow more pockets for the cream to get into. An alternative would be to dice the potatoes instead of slicing them, though it would make for a much less elegant presentation. Maybe call that variation Tourte Limousine à la Rustique...?? 😛

    Im not sure if it would help spread the cream, but instead of pouring the cream/egg mixture into the pie maybe use a Turkey baster or Turkey injector to get it farther into the pie while tipping it on it's side. And let the pie cool a bit before you pour the cream in there. The egg looks to be cooking as soon as it gets near the hot potatoes so it doesn't spread throughout the potatoes. Just a thought. I'm definitely going to try this though, i think you did a great job! It looks delicious.

    I saw that chimney arrangement and KNEW it was going to overflow when he tried pouring something that viscous in it.
    I started thinking back to a method of making a Welsh Lamb pie on the old Cooking show, Two Fat Ladies. Clarissa Dickson-Wright cut an x in the center of the pie then folded back the edges, which baked into a sort of crust fumarole. Into this she poured a lamb stock to make a gravy. I wonder if Jaime could make a ring of those things to get the cheese-egg mixture to disperse more?
