Thursday

I can make both the original style and the modern 'cream' style as well. I usually make the modern version. The recipe I use was taught to a friend who took classes at some culinary school in L.A.. The recipe was Vincent Price's personal one. Price himself came in to make this dish for the students. So, my friend was taught this recipe by Price himself.
