"I followed this recipe to the tee. I ordered black lentils online, and veal stock in concentrated form from a gourmet shop. I found gorgeous swiss chard, and I am telling you this is beyond wonderful. I served it to myself because I like trying recipes before serving to others. As always, Chuck is a genius! I loved this recipe!"

"Amazing! I consider myself somewhat of a cook, and this is amazing! Loved it"

"I made these in to cookies, and they are by far the best cookies I have ever had. I gave them to my neighbor and he loved them too""

"I loved this so much that I emailed Ina! I tell you, it is worth it to order French Lentils for this soup, and the wine vinegar at the end just puts it over the top with flavor! Ina is a wonderful cook and this is one of her very best!""

"It was a little bland for me. I like several different cheeses in my mac and cheese. I added Asiago and some parmesan, but I still felt like it needed a kick of some sort. I think next time I am going to add sour cream, and more sharp cheddar. Overall, it was a good recipe, I loved the panko bread crumbs on top. "
