I had a feeling "Oeufs" wasn't going to taste sublime, but jeezzz - no way could I admit to a flop because of someone elses technical misinformation. It's actually pretty funny to be so stubborn.

I wish it tasted better, for all the agony I went through, but at least I "saved" the recipe. Writers for food magazines who pen up recipes that don't work (or worse, don't taste wonderful) get the shards of the Italian platter..........just kidding.
