We Tried Two Of Chef John’s Recipes
On Friday night I made Herb Braised Artichokes and Prosciutto Wrapped Prawns for dinner.
As usual, the artichokes were a hit. They were delicious as always, and this time, even the kids ate them. This was my first time using Chef John’s recipe and I got quite the compliment from my wife who said, “Wow, these taste just like the ones you made before”. I told you I should have been a chef…
We weren’t too keen on the Prosciutto wrapped prawns. I think it was the orange zest, or maybe the prosciutto itself. Of course, I ate it, but I eat shrimp no matter how they are cooked. The family however didn’t like them too well, so I am going to “adjust” the recipe in the next few weeks, and if it’s a hit, I will post it here. (I am not saying that Chef John’s recipe is not good, my family just didn’t prefer it that way, that’s all).
