It was in the fridge for more than a day, and still it was very liquidy. Is there something else other than what you've described above that I should be doing? The FLAVOR was amazing, but I'm guessing it's the combination of texture AND flavor that sends this over the top.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01186067849452393599noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-76238704727817569962017-01-17T06:26:42.643-05:002017-01-17T06:26:42.643-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10347852440707162637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-19311188365940670442017-01-17T06:26:11.348-05:002017-01-17T06:26:11.348-05:00Chef John,

I made the drunken mussels but with a Thai red curry twist. It was inspired by your dish but I changed the flavours.

On the big day I made the Chocolate Pot de Creme with some hazelnut extract and it was a HUGE hit. The next day, I did an encore with mixed berries with Crème Anglaise sauce and it was an EVEN bigger hit. Oh yeah! I walked on water all weekend. I could do no wrong.<br /><br />A very big thank you from the bottom of my heart.<br /><br />Shantanu.Locomotive_breathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10899081073425845587noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-69106621728608499822015-01-11T14:06:20.213-05:002015-01-11T14:06:20.213-05:00yes, you can double, and add anything you want! en...yes, you can double, and add anything you want! enjoy!Chef Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15030125427840815038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-45694617616413267472015-01-11T11:00:15.579-05:002015-01-11T11:00:15.579-05:00Chef John,

Unless I saw you make it, and your ingredients, I couldn't diagnose what is wrong. Trust me when I say it's not the recipe since I'd have a hundred comments that it didn't work. 95% of the feedback from this one have been successful. It's generally the chocolate type, or the cream wasn't hot enough.

I used heavy whipping cream (1 cup exactly) but I chopped the entire bar up and added it (4.5 oz). Every thing else was exact but the pot de creme refuses to set more than a thick pudding. It's the extra chocolate or did I wait too long to whip? I did a count in my head and so it may have been 70 or 80 seconds before whipping. I'm assuming it was one of those two things that have banjaxed my attempt. It's still delicious but I was looking for that exquisite texture. <br /><br />Chef Jeremy (Stuck in Wisconsin)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09314351405610228358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-1750995441416429372012-11-08T06:11:38.674-05:002012-11-08T06:11:38.674-05:00and i also wanted to know the whipped cream is not...and i also wanted to know the whipped cream is not available in pakistan so could i add some milk into the heavy cream and make it liquidy.<br /><br /> thank youAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-36282699505125277192012-11-08T06:09:20.044-05:002012-11-08T06:09:20.044-05:00Hi Chef John,
