WAAAYTOOO Posted December 19, 2022 Report Share Posted December 19, 2022 We received a cookbook and aprons a few years ago. Not sure it’s the same cookbook (can’t look at the moment). I was hoping it would have the recipe for the mushroom soup but alas, it does not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WAAAYTOOO Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 I think they quit giving the Chefs Table gifts a number of years ago. We went to CT last night. No goodies. mom2mybugs and CrimsonCruiser 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireFishII Posted December 21, 2022 Report Share Posted December 21, 2022 I did not get anything when I went to a Chef's table back in June 2022. So sad. I would love to see the recipes in the cookbook. Many thanks to @barjpoefor the mushroom soup recipe. Just in time for the cold weather in New England.

melmar02 Posted December 24, 2022 Report Share Posted December 24, 2022 We just tried the mushroom soup recipe posted above to go with our Christmas Eve lunch. I used 16 ounces white button, 8 oz baby bellas, and two portobello caps. I couldn't find any of the tiny enoki mushrooms for garnish, so we just cut up one of the baby bellas. We sliced the mushrooms before cooking (not noted in the recipe), and I had some half and half already so I added a couple Tablespoons of butter along with it instead of using cream. I also used 3 sprigs of thyme instead of just one. It was pretty tasty - it's been over 6 months since I have been onboard a ship, so I can't say if the recipe is quite true or not though. Maybe my tastebuds will remember enough to compare in 120 days when we're on Allure. I put a couple containers in the freezer, but I don't think it will last that long. We will definitely make the recipe again, but next time I'm going to replace about a quarter of the vegetable stock with veal or beef stock, and I'll add a couple more tablespoons of butter. I wanted it to be just a little richer. fireclan, cruisellama, WAAAYTOOO and 2 others 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linda R Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 They used to sell cookbooks on the the ships. Recipes from various onboard restaurants. I had them all. But do not anymore. They were fun though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireFishII Posted December 29, 2022 Report Share Posted December 29, 2022 I just did a google search. You can purchase used cookbooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maggie M Posted January 4, 2023 Report Share Posted January 4, 2023 We also received one of the cookbooks from doing Chef's Table - but that was probably 8-10 years ago. Honestly, I don't think we've ever used it but the head chef and some of his staff did sign it for us. That was a nice surprise - sad to hear that they don't do it anymore.

WAAAYTOOO Posted January 4, 2023 Report Share Posted January 4, 2023 I sorted through some cookbooks and found mine. It was from Oasis but unfortunately, there is no date on anything. Looking at all of this, it makes me realize how much more you used to get for Chef's Table ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
