I admit that I’ve always wanted to try making Beef Wellington, but never had wanted to take it on. We were looking for something fun to make for Valentine’s Day, and decided to finally give it a go…and I wish I had done so sooner, as it was excellent. Labor intensive, but worth it. Of course I used Gordon Ramsay’s recipe as a guide, but I have to say that I also used Delish’s recipe as well. I’ve been very pleasantly surprised with their recipe ideas. Two things of note – I made two Wellingtons, one with a gluten-free pastry crust, and one with a regular. The gluten free was still delicious. Second, neither of us likes mushrooms too much, so I made the duxelles with caramelized onions and olive tapenade. Still fantastic.
