Triple Brie Truffle Croquettes with Ham
Chef Kevin: "So you have a sauce mornay with diced ham, chives, and on the top, you have a truffle paste made with mushroom and truffle."
Kristen Kish: "What was the breading? Just three step breading?"
Chef Kevin: "Yeah."
Tom Colicchio: "Why did you want to make a croquette with the cheese?"
Chef Kevin: :"Because for me it's the creaminess of the cheese. I just wanted to make melted croquette with truffle."
Judges (behind the scenes)
"You want to be able to taste the cheese right? It should be cheese forward."
"The truffles overpowered."
"I really want to say something positive about it, but nothing is coming to me."
"I think the three stage breading made it eggy and too thick, and we didn't get the benefit of that beautiful cheese."
"This could be the worst croquette we've had so far."
