  1. Random Gourmand

    This recipe is horrible. It lacks palatable flavors: merely boiling the kidneys fails to remove the kidney flavor from the meat, and the indicated ingredients (only salt?!) fail to bring out any meaningful flavors in the dish. We cooked this up to serve four people, and all four found it lacking in taste (as mentioned), texture (the kidneys lacked substance), and quality (specifically, the sauce, though thick, was rather tasteless). We eventually took this back to the pot and tarted it up with some heavy cream, juniper berries, sherry, and red wine. We also added some pepper and garlic to actually season the meat, and these simple additions alone made all the difference. Please, please, PLEASE don't use this recipe as-is, unless you love kidney: you and your guests deserve better flavors than bland kidney meat, mingled with just a hint of onion. Now, don't take this all the wrong way. We're eminently grateful for this recipe: certainly, we've learned a lot about the art of kidney cooking... just... don't use this recipe as-is.
