"A special dish, not for those seeking a healthier diet choice but for those occasions when something special is demanded. From the French Resturant known as Chez Ferdinand in the 50s and 60s. Note that time is very much a guess here and you need to watch the food and judge for yourself. I never bothered to check the clock when I made it. Use the freshest ingredients and also make your own croutons."

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me. If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer. I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story. Sigh..
