I am a self-admitted newbie to cooking and I was wondering how good the "master" chefs really are...
Check out the difference in amounts of banana liqueur and Rum used for each recipe for Bananas
Foster (both for 4 bananas).... BAMMM!!!.... Maybe some of that rum in Emerils is for drinking????
And newbies like me end up following these typos and have to learn the hard way...
For instance, I found the list of ingredients for the recipe for Banana's Foster from Brennan's
website to be as follows:
¼ cup (½ stick) butter 1 cup brown sugar ½ teaspoon cinnamon ¼ cup banana liqueur 4 bananas, cut in
half lengthwise, then halved ¼ cup dark rum 4 scoops vanilla ice cream
Then I found this one from Emeril...
8 tablespoons butter, cut into cubes
1/2 cup brown sugar
2/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 4 ripe bananas, peeled and cut lengthwise into halves 1 cup banana
liqueur 1 cup Myers Rum 1 pint vanilla bean ice cream 8 (about 1-inch thick) slices of yellow
pound cake Powdered sugar in a shaker 4 sprigs of fresh mint
