Mastering Beef Wellington: A Classic October Recipe Guide

Here is a concise summary of the text: A classic Beef Wellington recipe is prepared throughout the month of October. The dish requires three main ingredients: duxelles (mushrooms and herbs), puff pastry, and a beef filet. The recipe involves preparing each component separately, including searing the beef filet, making the duxelles, and puff pastry. The components are then assembled together by spreading the duxelles on the beef, wrapping it with puff pastry, and brushing the pastry with egg yolk. The Wellington is baked until golden brown and served with a small jus of beef. The chef emphasizes the importance of using a thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the beef is at the desired level, and of letting the Wellington rest before serving.
