重要提醒

⚠️

Using a center-cut beef tenderloin (Chateaubriand) is crucial for even cooking throughout the Wellington.

⚠️

It is very important to let both the seared tenderloin and the duxelles cool down completely before assembling to prevent the puff pastry from becoming soggy.

⚠️

The crepes act as a protective barrier, absorbing moisture from the duxelles and keeping the pastry crisp.

⚠️

Wrapping the assembled log tightly in plastic wrap and chilling it helps the Wellington hold its shape beautifully during baking.

⚠️

Don't skip the resting period after baking; this allows the juices in the meat to redistribute, ensuring a tender and moist result.
