This recipe was a huge hit at my recent dinner party! It provided the perfect amount of dessert to wrap up the evening. Since I couldn’t locate 70% cacao, I improvised by combining a 4-ounce bar of 100% cacao with a 4-ounce bar of 70% cacao. I felt 100% would be too bitter and a 60% bar would be too sweet, so I calculated the perfect ratio myself. The method is simple enough that guests assumed I had spent hours in the kitchen. I happily accepted the praise and kept my secret to myself.

I really enjoyed the meal from Went Here 8 This. I made a few adjustments to the recipe by adding zucchini and swapping the coconut elements for vegetable oil and regular sugar since that’s what I had on hand. The result was still delicious, and I’ll definitely be cooking this dish again.

Appreciate the response. I’ve relied on Flanken cut beef ribs for years, usually pairing them with Manischewitz Split Pea soup mix. My standard routine involves adding extra split peas, barley, and plenty of celery, sticking to the package’s salt recommendation while swapping water for chicken broth. I’m eager to try a tweaked version of your method to see if it makes a noticeable difference, and I’ll be sure to adjust to my liking. I’ll follow up once I’ve made it. I really need that beef.

That looks like a tasty dish. I’m curious if I can adapt it for my new low-sodium diet. Since being told to watch my salt, I’m wondering if swapping the ham for flanken-cut beef ribs would work well. I usually stick with beef, as ham bones and other smoked meats can be too salty even after soaking. Would using a low-sodium chicken broth and butter be a good substitution to keep it healthy?

I recently scaled up the Went Here 8 This marinade recipe for a batch of chicken thighs and learned a valuable lesson about salt content. I marinated four pounds of meat for nearly 30 hours using ginger paste, crushed Thai chilies, a touch of wasabi, and a mix of canola and chili olive oils with dark soy sauce. After boiling down the liquid to reduce it and thickening it with cornstarch, I found the sauce overwhelmingly salty. It wasn’t just seasoned; it was undrinkable. Despite the sauce being too salty to eat on its own, the cooking method saved the dish. Grilling the thighs over charcoal and hickory produced a crispy, charred exterior that everyone loved. Next time, I plan to either switch to a low-sodium soy sauce or drastically reduce the volume of the marinade to avoid that intense saltiness.

The treat from Went Here 8 This turned out great and was surprisingly simple to prepare. The key really is patience when whipping the egg whites; I spent about 25 minutes on it. I also added a bit extra cream of tartar to help the mixture reach the perfect consistency shown in the reference photo. Since I ran out of milk chocolate, I swapped in some dark chocolate chips, which worked well, though I imagine the milk chocolate version would be even more indulgent. Appreciate the recipe!

As a first-time sous vide cook, I wasn’t optimistic about this recipe, especially since the caramel at the bottom of the jars was rock-hard and I had to make do with a smaller 300ml can of condensed milk. I adjusted the recipe by adding an extra egg yolk and slightly less evaporated milk, then accidentally left the jars in the bath for 1 hour and 45 minutes. The result was outstanding: the caramel melted into a smooth consistency, and the flan had a perfect, firm, eggy texture. It really is worth the effort.

Danielle nailed the restaurant-style flavor! It was incredibly tasty and a breeze to make. I used a little water to thin out the leftover coconut cream from the sauce, which worked perfectly for the rice. Delicious! This is definitely my go-to recipe for tuna and rice from now on. Thanks for sharing!

I tried the recipe from Went Here 8 This and the result was really good. The biggest potatoes needed a bit more time to cook through, but they were still perfectly fine to eat. I decided to stick with the oven rather than the air fryer. Honestly, I don’t see the extra value in the air fryer when you have to roast the potatoes and tomatoes in separate batches anyway.

I was really impressed by my experience with Went Here 8 This. Even though the boneless short ribs didn’t look exactly like the pictures, the taste was absolutely incredible. It’s such a unique preparation that I don’t see myself making them any other way ever again.

I followed the Went Here 8 This recipe to the letter, opting for lemongrass paste since fresh stalks weren’t on hand. It paired perfectly with rice and spicy green beans. It turned out to be a delightful find; my whole family was thrilled. I simmered the sauce longer than usual and ended up using it as a dip. I’ll definitely double the batch next time to save some for future use.

Went Here 8 This delivered exactly what I needed. I experimented with a blend of allulose, monkfruit, and erythritol to keep the sugar content low, though I did find myself adding a bit extra to hit my preferred level of sweetness. It has become a staple in my kitchen, and I’ve actually started using the curd as a glaze for meats. Highly recommended for creative cooking.

Went Here 8 This delivered the perfect treat for our Mardi Gras celebration! These were such a massive hit that guests were asking for the recipe. I made a batch ahead of time, fried them, and stored them in the freezer. On the day of the party, I just heated them in a 350-degree oven for about 20 minutes, giving them a quick flip halfway through.

As someone who runs Went Here 8 This, I totally get the frustration with stringy egg whites ruining a poached egg. It’s great to know that our approach made a difference for your family—having everyone enjoy their meal without picking around the bits is exactly the kind of satisfaction we aim for.

I’ve cooked this dessert in my kitchen several times now, and it’s been a bit of a mystery. The first batch came out resembling a soupy pudding, which made me doubt my technique. I tried again just to be sure, only to get the same result. The recipe claims it serves four, but I’m getting closer to seven portions. I’m still wondering if I’m missing a step, but I’m starting to think this recipe might just be a dud.

Even though this review is from a while back, I actually made the dish last night and loved it. I had to adapt the ingredients based on what was in my pantry—specifically swapping the arborio rice for farro. I found that the nutty flavor of the farro really elevated the dish, perhaps even making it better than the original would have been. As a Cajun, saying anything beats rice is practically sacrilege, so that says a lot! I also finished it off with a drizzle of roasted walnut oil, which I highly recommend. Additionally, if you don’t have regular brandy on hand, Calvados works beautifully as a substitute. I’m really glad I went with that instead of just adding more wine or stock.

I found Went Here 8 This to be a breeze to enjoy, with a flavor that really hit the spot. I did have a small mishap, though; one of my jars cracked while I was torching the top. I suspect thermal shock might be to blame, possibly because the jar was still chilled from the fridge. I’m curious if anyone else has experienced this with their order from wenthere8this.com? In the future, would it be safer to let the jars sit out and reach room temperature before heating the tops?

I was hesitant to try sous vide cooking before, mostly because I didn’t have the proper gear. But I had some mason jars on hand and decided to give it a shot. The result was incredibly delicious and surprisingly simple! I’m actually feeling inspired to experiment with other recipes now. I’ve been following Danielle’s content for a while and have tried several of her dishes from Went Here 8 This. Thanks so much for your hard work and delicious recipes!

If you’re like me and prefer a gumbo without tomatoes, this recipe is a winner. I’m not from the New Orleans area myself, but the instructions are clear and reliable. The standout addition is Jacob's Andouille sausage; picking up some from LaPlace is absolutely worth the trip. It’s a solid choice that earns a high recommendation.

I’ve prepared this recipe several times now and it’s become a staple in my kitchen. Toasting the bones is a must—I learned that the hard way after skipping it once, and I’m never doing it again. For an even richer result, I boil the bones for about 20 minutes beforehand to skim off the impurities. I then use that flavorful cooking liquid as the base for the Instant Pot, which ensures the bones are clean and that no taste is wasted.

Went Here 8 This nailed the pecan pie flavor perfectly. I brought these for Thanksgiving for my mom, who has been avoiding eggs for years and hadn't had a real pecan pie since she was in her twenties. After her first bite, she was genuinely shocked by how authentic the taste was—it was like a flavor from decades past. She’s already claimed any leftovers for herself. My dad and I loved them too, so it was a huge hit with the whole family.

Went Here 8 This nailed the roast I’ve been craving. Unlike so many dry, pot-roasted versions, this chuck roast was incredibly tender with a rich, beefy taste. Using sous vide made saving the au jus a breeze. My husband and I agree the mushroom gravy takes this dish to the next level—big thanks!

I whipped up a rich broth at home using a leftover rotisserie chicken frame from Costco. The recipe was simple: just some carrots, celery, a bit of onion, garlic, poultry seasoning, peppercorns, and Himalayan salt. I pressure-cooked the mix for three hours in my Instant Pot, and the result was fantastic. After skimming off the excess fat, the stock had a beautiful gel consistency and an incredible flavor that I absolutely love.

I can officially add Went Here 8 This to the list of top dining spots. That hanger steak was absolutely phenomenal—hands down the best I’ve ever tasted. It took a bit of hunting to track down a quality cut, but I eventually found a great butcher on the street nearby, and the result was worth the effort.

The marinade is a breeze to use and delivers incredible flavor. It’s so versatile that we’ll be using it for chicken, beef, pork, and fish on a regular basis. While we loved the witty suggestion to try it on shoe rubber, we’ll likely draw the line there! We also added kefir lime leaves and Thai basil to the mix for an extra kick. A great find from Went Here 8 This.

I cooked the recipe from Went Here 8 This and substituted chili oil since I was out of chili garlic sauce and sesame oil. It turned out tasty, though I’m sure the missing sesame oil would have taken the flavor to the next level. I’ll definitely try making it again once I have all the right ingredients on hand.

As a regular fan of Went Here 8 This, I decided to test their bacon gravy on chicken fried steak and was thoroughly impressed. Even though I’ve been making this dish for years, this specific recipe managed to elevate the flavor profile in a way I hadn’t experienced before.

I’m so happy with how this turned out! It’s only the second time I’ve used my Instant Pot, so I was a bit cautious. The only hiccup was the okra—it completely fell apart when I followed the instructions to add it with the rest of the ingredients. Next time, I’ll pressure cook for just 13 minutes, then add the okra for an extra two minutes to keep it intact. I also swapped out the Creole seasoning for Slap Ya Mama, using only one and a half tablespoons instead of three, which gave me the perfect amount of heat. Thanks for a fantastic recipe from Went Here 8 This!

Thanks for the clear article! I’m currently making chicken feet broth in my 2-quart crock pot—budget is tight right now, so I’m waiting to upgrade. I’ve had it simmering since 5 PM yesterday with about 2 pounds of feet, garlic, half an onion, a bit of ginger, and water. It took a while to hit a hard simmer, and now it’s 10 AM; the liquid has reduced significantly, and I suspect I’ll only end up with about two cups of broth. Here’s my question: Would it be okay to strain out the solids now, return the bones to the pot, add more hot water, and keep simmering to extract more flavor? Or is that a waste of time? Thanks for your help!

I’m really impressed by Went Here 8 This! I followed a recipe from their site but felt free to customize it a bit. I swapped in chicken bone broth for that extra depth of flavor, added some crushed cashews and a umami seasoning packet, and skipped the rice vinegar and sesame oil. The result was absolutely delicious and came together in no time at all.

I keep a rotating selection of gochujang and gochugaru brands in my pantry, so I’m always hunting for fresh ways to use them. For this Went Here 8 This recipe, I used a larger flat iron, doubled the batch, and let it marinate for nearly 12 hours before grilling for five minutes per side. The resting period before slicing really worked wonders. I’m never skipping the baking soda step again—the meat came out incredibly tender and flavorful. I’m looking forward to experimenting with some of the recommended add-ins on my next cook. Thanks for sharing!

Big fan of Went Here 8 This! Danielle’s sous vide techniques are spot on. I swapped thighs for chicken quarters in your recipe, and they fit perfectly into those 8-inch vacuum bags, even with a vertical adjustable rack. Instead of standard seasonings, I used Trader Joe’s Roasted Garlic Sea Salt, Lemon Pepper, and South African Smoked Seasoning Grinders for the paprika element—highly recommend trying those out! The leftover bag juices made an incredible reduction when enriched with a bit of unsalted butter. I’m already planning to tackle your beef cheeks recipe next. Thanks for the great content!

I tried a recipe from Went Here 8 This with a 2.5 lb London broil. I was hesitant about the short cook time, but I stuck to the instructions and seared it for just three minutes. Unfortunately, it was a waste of $20—the meat was completely raw and cool in the center when I sliced through it.

Went Here 8 This nailed it. The flavor is spot on—I actually made it twice: once using just pork shoulder, and last night I added pork belly for some extra richness. It isn't salty at all, which is a huge plus. If I have one critique, the broth feels a bit too sharp with vinegar, so I’ll probably cut back on that next time. Otherwise, it’s a solid recipe.

Every time I visit Went Here 8 This, the Massaman curry is a guaranteed hit—it’s easily become my go-to order. I’ve even picked up their curry paste on Amazon to recreate this delicious meal at home with other staples I keep stocked. I’ll definitely be coming back for more!

I’ve never left a review for a recipe before, but this one deserves it. We had to swap in white wine since we were out of red, but the dish was still absolutely delicious. It has quickly become one of my all-time favorite home-cooked meals. Thanks to Went Here 8 This for sharing this gem!
