that he spent four hours recreating the winning dish from Top Chef's vegan challenge with Zooey Deschanel! Admittedly he says he spent one hour searching for a cutting board (I recently re-organized) but the recipe was extremely involved to say the least. You can find it at the official Bravo TV site.
It was really excellent and he did a great job making it!! I married the best! It was super garlicky and comforting. I usually don't care for zucchini but in this, it was perfect!! Look how beautifully it came out:
Plus when he was done... the kitchen wasn't even a mess!!!
Its a shame that the winning dish had to come from the chef that complained the most about cooking for a vegan though. To balance him out check out this excellent blog entry about vegetarianism by judge Jay Oseland. I only wish Mr. Oseland had been given a chance to voice his opinions on air.
P.S. Here is the other delicious looking recipe from Chef Rick Bayless for Vegan Tamales
Wow, what a great blog. I enjoyed my introduction to it this evening. You can bet I'll be returning often. Also, I think I told you about my sister-in-law who is a vegetarian - I saw her yesterday and recommended she check out your blog, hope that's alright with you.
