I think you would have had more success with more expensive crab, (I can never get enough) and the flavor would have been better too.<br /><br />As for the recipes, I doubt they even test them, that would take time/money and what are they getting out of it? They are free. When I saw Ruth Reichl at her Gourmet cookbook signing in November, she brought up how many times Gourmet magazine would test a recipe. Most magazines today don't do that, it's too expensive. <br />(And ultimately probably why Gourmet closed) That's why recipes from Gourmet and Julia Child's cookbooks are usually fool proof, they've been tested so many times.<br /><br />I stopped subscribing to a few magazines as the recipes were just not that good.LaDivaCucinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06000430029590301972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-493144429387237025.post-47552614023943788412010-06-02T10:23:13.645-04:002010-06-02T10:23:13.645-04:00The combination sounds really good to me but I can...The combination sounds really good to me but I can see where I little wine might be good.kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10462007067131792229noreply@blogger.com
