Whereas in New York not too long ago we had been fortunate sufficient to have the ability to dine at Daniel Boulud’s restaurant Daniel. It goes with out saying, for a restaurant ranked quantity 11 on the earth by the S. Pelligrino World’s 50 Finest Restaraunts that the meals can be wonderful, and wonderful it was. Actually, it was the perfect meal of my life, however extra on that in a future submit, together with a sneak peak contained in the kitchen at Daniel, which the group at Daniel had been so type to permit me into to take some images.
After our meal, whereas we had been having fun with a cup of tea and occasional, our waiter Javier introduced out freshly baked orange madeleines (together with handmade sweets and petit fours). Sadly, by this level (truly properly earlier than) we had been unable to eat anymore of the scrumptious meals as a result of there was simply SO a lot. Javier mentioned that wasn’t an issue and packed up the madeleines and petit fours for us to take with us.
The madeleines made a beautiful breakfast the subsequent morning, and had been bursting with orange flavour, however not overwhelmingly so. My fiancé rapidly dubbed them wonderful, as he munched on one, as was every thing else we loved from restaurant Daniel. So I knew after we acquired dwelling I needed to attempt to reproduce them, given I knew I had little hope of reproducing a number of the different dishes we loved that evening.
The madeleines from restaurant Daniel had been miniatures, however I made giant ones as I haven’t got a miniature madeleine tray. Not less than with giant madeleines you do not really feel so responsible for saying you had 1 or 2 madeleines as an alternative of 4 mini ones.
So, have you ever been impressed to recreate a dessert you have got loved at a restaurant at dwelling? How did it go?
