Upon looking at her finished piece one day I commented "You know you should put a stairway here, that would look great." She wisely said, "When you make yours, you can put the stairway in." Those of you who complain about how Chef John talks, writes or cooks can do it the way you want when you begin your blog. Until then, go somewhere else ...Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10338566128846015707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-39904140179039137182015-08-09T22:05:53.032-04:002015-08-09T22:05:53.032-04:00This is my 4th recipe of yours I have made and whi...This is my 4th recipe of yours I have made and while the other three were incredible, this one somehow surpassed those. I used to cook when I was single. I loved being in the kitchen. That was 25 years ago. When I found your blog I told my wife I was going to begin cooking again. What a wonderful joy it is to be back in the kitchen! Your recipes and videos walking me through the process has made it easy to pick up my spoonula and get my hands wet again. Thank you for putting so much knowledge in one place and thank you for your teaching method. You are an excellent teacher and have made my transition back into the kitchen easier than I would have expected. Thank you.txcowdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13860017834854700918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-64898645085969402562015-04-05T14:00:38.953-04:002015-04-05T14:00:38.953-04:00This has become my all time favorite soup.

I have heard of Old Bay spice ( not to be mistaken for the middle aged stuff) but I have never seen it anywhere. Now, here on the island of Newfoundland, some things are a little harder to get, but none as hard as this holy grail of spice. Can I substitute something else, or a combination of things, or is it really that big of a deal. I love your videos, and you crack me up with every recipe. So far all have been successful. Thanks for being fab and fun, and a wealth of knowledge.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13981023915191624580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7173052990851751381.post-74161754373848603982014-01-20T18:25:20.244-05:002014-01-20T18:25:20.244-05:00Chef John,

Also, would you please stop the Old Bay jokes? When I first heard Henny Youngman say "Take my wife.....PLEASE!!!", it was hilarious. The second time, it was funny. The third time, I knew he was out of gas.

(and maybe be more consistent in doing so in your recipes?)
