What a tease with the Quintessence-chicken post.
Led me down a salivating path then stopped short of the secret recipe.
And don't forget to order your FiveGuys fries "extra crispy". They'll double fry them to order...so good.

A tease, I know -- but as I wrote, taking the class probably doesn't give me the right to publish the recipes I received in the class.
Someone did add a comment to my post with this link, which contains one of the essential recipes:
