Mmmm and eggs over easy are really hard!


Mmmmm for that lovely dinner we had at our school bistro! it was wonderful! It was merely a tasting menu but it was bursting with flavor. First course was mussels and clams steamed in a white wine reduction with saffron foam. Main course was a filet minon with a mushroom demi-glace with arugula and risotto cocquet (which is bascially a little ball of risotto. The dessert was where i was a little unhappy about, combining two things i dont like very much, it was pumpkin cheesecake. A beautiful presentation, but ehh, still pumpkin cheesecake.
Today though i had to make a few soups like clam chowder and consumme (both i got A's on!) but i also had to make eggs over easy. I must have gone through seven eggs! i still dont think i have it down. it was so freaky trying to flip the pan. Everytime, i asked Wanda (yes as i mentioned earlier, not her real name but reminds me of Wanda Sykes) to hold my hand. It was like jumping into a pool cause the flipping is so fast. anyhow, it'll be on my final so i really need to pratice!
