I cooked tonight (forgot to take a pic), and am planning what I want to practice tomorrow night. I had a cheap filet mignon from Trader Joe's. I pan seared it and made a red wine pan sauce. I did the filet perfectly (medium rare), but I actually salted it too much. Tom Colicchio and the other judges criticized the chefs for not salting enough last night, so I took a chance and overdid it. I also needed to let the pan sauce reduce a little longer. Other than that, not a bad first attempt.
As for tomorrow, I'm working on what I want to practice. I need to run to Whole Foods to get some materials. I'm learning quickly that this could become a very expensive two months.
