Stuffed French Toast

Ingredients:

Sweet Bread - 8 slices

Eggs - 2

Milk - 1cup (I used 2% milk)

Light Brown sugar - 3tbsp (can be substituted with white sugar)

Unsalted Butter - 2tbsp melted + more for cooking

Salt - a pinch

Vanilla extract - 2tsp

Cinnamon - ½tsp



For the Filling/ Stuffing:

Cream cheese - ¼cup

Strawberries - 2 cups, hulled & chopped

Sugar - 3-4tbsp (depending on the sweetness of the fruit)



Method:

Make the Strawberry Compote: Mix Strawberries and sugar in a medium sauce pan and bring the mixture to a boil and simmer until thickens, about 8-10 minutes. Remove from heat and cool. This can be made ahead of time and refrigerated until ready to use.

To make French Toast: First make the custard: Whisk warm milk, eggs, sugar, melted butter, salt, vanilla and cinnamon in a pie plate or any other wide & deep container.

Prepare the Bread: Spread 4 slices of bread with cream cheese and the other 4 slices with the strawberry jam. Place the cream cheese topped slice on the strawberry topped slice and press lightly.

Soak the sandwiched bread slices in the custard until saturated but not falling apart, about 20 seconds each side. Remove using a slotted spoon to make sure that all the extra custard drips off. Place these soaked bread on another plate or baking sheet.

Heat a griddle/ tawa on medium-low flame and melt ½tbsp butter, cook the soaked bread until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the rest of the bread.

Serve hot with some maple syrup or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Grilled Pimento Cheese Sandwiches

As most of us know pimento cheese is a southern thing. I love it and I also love grilled cheese. Never thought of putting the 2 together.



1 cup mayonnaise

1 (4-oz.) jar diced pimento, drained

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon finely grated onion

2 (8-oz.) blocks sharp Cheddar cheese, shredded

White bread slices

Mayonnaise



Stir together 1 cup mayonnaise, diced pimento, Worcestershire sauce, and onion. Stir in shredded sharp Cheddar cheese. (Store in an airtight container in refrigerator up to 1 week, if desired.) Spread 1/4 cup pimiento cheese mixture on 1 side of a white bread slice; top with another bread slice. Lightly spread both sides of sandwich with mayonnaise. Repeat with remaining pimento cheese mixture for desired number of sandwiches. Cook, in batches, on a hot griddle or large nonstick skillet over medium heat 4 to 5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cheese melts.



I prefer more diversity in my pimento cheese.



1 pound Velveeta

1/4 pound Sharp Cheddar Cheese

1/4 pound American Cheese

1/4 pound Shredded Mozzarella

1/2 cup Dukes mayo

1 4 oz Jar diced pimentos with liquid

1/2 cup Milk

Freshly ground black pepper to taste



Put all the cheese in a bowl and microwave for 3 minutes. Stop and stir after each minute.

If not completely melted go another minute, and check after 30 seconds. When melted

add the mayo, pimentos, milk and a little pepper. Stir thoroughly and taste to see if

more pepper is needed. The consistency should be easy to stir but not runny. If it is too

thick add more milk to get it thinner. Now place in the fridge. The consistency much be

a little on the thin side because it will thicken in the fridge. You need to experiment and

decide what is best for you. I would rather have it a little too thick rather than too thin.

You can always thin it a little more with milk.




Floyd's Favorite Tomato Sandwich

This time of year when home grown tomatoes are abundant I love a tomato sandwich. I want a large one that will cover a slice of white bread, and gobs of mayonnaise. What a treat! This variation looks promising except I would not wait 2 days to enjoy.

1 large onion

3 tablespoons mayonnaise

1 tablespoon prepared mustard

16 sandwich bread slices

1/8 teaspoon salt

1/8 teaspoon pepper



Cut tomato and onion into 8 (1/4-inch-thick) slices each. Layer in a shallow dish. Cover; chill 8 hours. Discard onion.

Stir together mayonnaise and mustard; spread on 1 side of bread slices. Place 1 tomato slice on each of 8 bread slices; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Top with remaining bread slices. Cover and chill up to 2 days.

Best Way to Prepare Low Calorie Desserts

i love dessert but the difficult equation come in

how to enjoy dessert without gain extra weight


The secret of enjoying desserts when you want to lose weight is to choose low calorie desserts. And fortunately, with some simple tricks you can create low calorie desserts that don't really taste like boring low calorie food.



There are four ways of reducing calories in your dessert:



reducing the amount of fat

reducing the amount of sugar

reducing the amount of other simple carbohydrates

reducing portion sizes

Reducing fat

Most fat in your desserts comes in form of butter or dairy products like cream, milk, cream cheese and mascarpone. You can reduce fat very easily without losing much taste.

Replace butter with a good margarine. That's not only less fat but also healthier fat. In many cake or muffin recipes you could even use canola oil instead.

If cream is not used beaten, you can use butter milk or coconut milk instead. They contain much less fat and also taste great.

Use low fat milk instead of full cream milk. It works just as well and you will barely notice the difference. Plus, you cut calories coming from milk to about one third. Buttermilk can replace milk in shakes and smoothies.

Use low fat smooth cottage cheese or ricotta in place of cream cheese or mascarpone. Your dessert will have significantly less calories and also be less heavy.

Buy low fat ice cream. Try to find one that is not too high in sugar. Alternately, you can make your own ice cream with low fat milk and artificial sweeteners.

Reducing sugar

This is a bit more tricky but still possible. In many recipes you can simply reduce the amount of sugar. If you then feel it's not sweet enough, you have several options:

You can use artificial sweeteners like Splenda or Aspartame. They are very sweet (so a little will do) but contain almost no calories.

You can also use natural sweeteners like honey, fructose or maple syrup. They contain fewer calories than sugar, and since they are much sweeter you need less. But remember that they still do contain calories. Natural sweeteners are a great option if you just want to sweeten something a little. But if you want to use a large amount, then rather don't go this route.

Add naturally sweet foods like fresh or dried fruit to your dessert. This will reduce your need for additional sugar and at the same time provide you with many important vitamins and fiber.

Reducing other simple carbohydrates

Of all carbohydrates, sugar is the one that causes most damage. But there are other simple carbohydrates that have a quite similar effect on our body. Refined products like white flour also contain simple carbohydrates. These are stored as fat when you eat too many of them, so you should reduce these foods as well when you want to lose weight.

The best way to do this is to swap white flour with whole grain flour. You can completely replace it or mix the two, depending on how much you need or want to reduce calories. The good thing about a whole grain muffin is that it also fills you quicker and better than one made of white flour. So you will eat less.



Reducing portion sizes

One of the best and most effective ways of reducing calories is certainly simply eating less. I'm not saying you should have tiny portions. Just reasonable ones. You don't really need five scoops of ice-cream, two would also do. Rather stick to smaller portions and enjoy them without having to worry too much about the calories.




5 Ways To Serve A Great Cocktail

Cocktails are a great way of enjoying your favourite spirits and liquors. Here are some tips to help you serve them the right way.



1) Make sure everything is chilled.



This is the thumb rule for a cocktail (exception being warm cocktails). Lots of ice in the glass and as well as in your shaker. Additional Tip: Putting a single ice cube in a glass and chilling it in the freezer 10 minutes before serving, is a great way to get a frosted look and also enhance the taste of the cocktail.



2) Know your garnish.



This is what will differentiate between a good cocktail experience and a great cocktail experience. Cocktails should conjure up images and fantasies and for that they also have to look the part. Make sure you garnish goes well with the drink and is feast for the eyes as well. Additional Tip: Most drinks use one of the ingredients as a garnish. For example drinks containing orange juice are served with a slice of orange.



3) Know your glasses.



This is another important rule. The right glass can enhance the flavour of your cocktail, while the wrong one, will not allow the fullest of experiences. Generally drinks with aerated mixes or juices are served either in a high ball or a Tom Collins. Shots and Shooters are served in shot glasses. Champagne is served in a flute. White and red wine both have specific glasses for each other and a brandy or cognac is best served in a balloon glass.



4) Fresh juices are best.



It is best to prepare and use fresh juice before the evening. They provide more natural and fruitier experience. They are also thinner than their canned or packaged counterparts, making them better and lighter mixers.



5) Build your drink correctly.



It is important to follow the order of a cocktail to get the best flavour out of it. Always put in the hard spirit first, followed by the liquer or enhancer, topped with the mixer and finally add the bitters if needed. Now garnish the drink. This is the basic recipe of any cocktail and should be used whenever applicable. For example while making a Woo Woo. Add the vodka (spirit) first, followed by peach schnapps (enhancer) and topped with cranberry juice (mixer).



And lastly, don't forget to enjoy serving

Roasted Zucchini Spaghetti Pie

Roasted Zucchini Spaghetti Pie







(Yield: 1-9” pie)







2 medium zucchini, thinly sliced



1 TB olive oil



¼ lb spaghetti noodles



2 c ricotta cheese



2 eggs



1 egg white



¼ c fresh grated Parmesan cheese, divided



1 ½ c Thick Marinara Sauce (recipe below)



Pinch salt and pepper



Cooking spray







Thick Marinara Sauce (should yield ~1 ½ c):



½ TB olive oil



1 small onion, diced



2 cloves garlic, minced



1 small carrot, peeled and shredded



1 ¼ c coarsely diced tomato (or 16 oz canned diced tomato, with the liquid drained out)



1 ½ oz tomato paste



1 bay leaf



¾ tsp dried basil or 1 TB fresh chopped basil



¼ tsp dried oregano



¼ tsp salt



Pinch ground black pepper







9” pie plate







Preheat the oven to 450F. Coat the sliced zucchini with 1 TB of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper; arrange the zucchini in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for ~18 minutes, flipping halfway through the cooking time; when it’s done roasting, the zucchini will be golden in spots.







For the marinara sauce, heat the olive oil over medium heat in small pot with a lid. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes until the onion starts to soften; add the garlic and carrot and sauté another 5-10 minutes (just until the veggies start to take on a little color). Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, herbs, salt, and pepper. Taste to adjust seasonings. Simmer with the lid on for 20-30 minutes.







Cook the pasta to al dente according to the package directions. Cool the pasta to room temperature, then add 1 egg, 2 TB grated Parmesan, and pinch of pepper; stir to combine.







To the ricotta cheese, mix in 1 egg, 1 egg white, and a pinch of salt and pepper.







Preheat the oven to 350F. Lightly coat the pie pan with cooking spray; spread the pasta on the bottom of the pie plate, then spread ½ of the ricotta mixture on top of the pasta. Arrange the zucchini on top of the ricotta (it’s okay if it overlaps a little), then spread the rest of the ricotta mixture on top of the zucchini. Spread the marinara sauce on top of the ricotta. Bake the pie for 20-30 minutes until it’s set. Sprinkle the remaining 2 TB of Parmesan cheese on top and allow to cool slightly before cutting.

Vienna Bread roll with Dutch Crunch Topping



.

I made Peter Reinhart's Vienna bread with the Dutch crunch topping from his book, "The Bread Baker's Apprentice". It made a dozen rolls from the recipe.

.

Made a couple of changes to the recipe. I used all 16-oz of the Pate Fermentee from the original Pate Fermentee recipe, instead of the 13-oz called for in the Vienna bread recipe. I also doubled the butter to 2 Tbsp and used half water and half milk in the Vienna bread.

.

Other than that, I followed Peter Reinhart's recipe for Vienna bread with Dutch crunch topping.

.

I made 12 rolls from the recipe, scaled at 3-oz (90g) each before the Dutch topping was added.

.

I used all of the Dutch topping from the original recipe below.

.

Here is the paraphrased modified recipe I used. I baked by the gram weights, not the volume measurements.

.

-----

.

.

Reinhart's Vienna Bread roll with Dutch Crunch Topping (modified)

.

This uses a Pate Fermentee, which is similar to a sponge, stored overnight in the fridge to enhance flavor.

.

.

Pate Fermentee

.

1 1/8 cups (140g) Bread flour

1 1/8 cups (140g) All Purpose flour

1/2 tsp (1.5g) yeast

3/4 tsp (4.5g) salt

3/4 cup (180g) water (90° to 100°F)

.

Mix dry ingredients, add water, mix, knead 6 to 8 minutes, speed 2 in stand mixer (or knead 10 minutes by hand, or run through a bread machine dough cycle).

The dough should be soft and only slightly sticky.

Let rise, in a oiled covered bowl, 1 hour at room temperature.

Deflate dough, form into ball.

Place covered bowl of dough, overnight in fridge.

.

.

Dough

.

all of the Pate Fermentee (465g) from above

2 3/4 cups (340g) unbleached bread flour

1 tablespoon (13g) granulated sugar

1 teaspoon (7g) diastatic barley malt powder

1 teaspoon (6g) salt

1 teaspoon (3g) instant yeast

1 large (45g) egg, slightly beaten

2 tablespoons (28g) butter, room temperature

3/4 cup (180g) milk, scalded to 185°F, cooled to lukewarm (90° to 100°F)

.

Take Pate Fermentee out of fridge, cut into 12 pieces.

Allow Pate Fermentee pieces to warm at room temperature 1 hour, covered.

Mix dough dry ingredients. Add milk.

Add Pate Fermentee to remainder of ingredients. Mix. Add butter. Mix.

Knead until Window pane test is passed, 6 to 8 minutes, speed 2 in stand mixer (or knead 10 minutes by hand, or run through a bread machine dough cycle).

The dough should be soft and only slightly sticky.

Proof, covered, 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Deflate if dough doubles early and continue proofing.

Form two loaves or 12 rolls. Scale rolls at 3-oz (90g) each. Makes 12 rolls.

Place on baking sheet.

.

.

Dutch Crunch Topping

.

1 tablespoon (8g) bread flour

3/4 cup (115g) rice flour

3/4 teaspoon (2.5g) instant yeast

2 teaspoons (8.5g) granulated sugar

1/4 teaspoon (1.5g) salt

6 to 8 tablespoons (1/3 to 1/2 cup) (90g to 120g) of water

2 teaspoons (9g) vegetable oil

.

To make the topping, whisk together, bread flour, rice flour, instant yeast, granulated sugar, salt, vegetable oil, and water to make a paste. If paste is too thin to spread without running off the dough, add more rice flour. The paste should be thick enough to spread with a brush, but not thick so that it sits on top like a lump of mud.

.

Makes enough for 2 to 4 loaves, or a dozen 90g rolls.

.

Apply dutch crunch topping. Let rise 45 minutes in a warm place (like an OFF oven with the light on).

.

Bake at 375°F for 30 minutes, or until golden brown and center reaches 195°F.

.

Barbecue-Peach Summer Rolls

Hot water

12 to 16 (8- to 9-inch) round rice paper sheets

2 small peaches, peeled and thinly sliced

12 to 16 Bibb lettuce leaves

1 cucumber, cut into thin strips

1 large ripe avocado, thinly sliced

1 pound shredded barbecued pork (without sauce), warm

1 Granny Smith apple, peeled and cut into thin strips

1 1/2 cups torn fresh mint, cilantro, and basil

Sweet Pepper-Peanut Sauce



1. Pour hot water to depth of 1 inch into a large shallow dish. Dip 1 rice paper sheet in hot water briefly to soften (about 15 to 20 seconds). Pat dry with paper towels.

2. Place softened rice paper on a flat surface. Place 1 or 2 peach slices in center of rice paper; top with 1 lettuce leaf, 2 cucumber strips, 1 avocado slice, about 3 Tbsp. pork, 3 or 4 apple strips, and 1 1/2 to 2 Tbsp. herbs. Fold sides over filling, and roll up, burrito style. Place roll, seam side down, on a serving platter. Cover with damp paper towels to keep from drying out.

3. Repeat procedure with remaining rice paper and filling ingredients. Serve with Sweet Pepper-Peanut Sauce.



Look for rice paper rounds in the international aisle of large grocery stores or at Asian markets.



Sweet Pepper-Peanut Sauce



1 cup sweet pepper relish (such as Howard's)

1/2 cup finely chopped cocktail peanuts

3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

2 tablespoons lite soy sauce

4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger

2 finely chopped green onions

2 garlic cloves, minced

2 teaspoons Asian hot chili sauce (such as Sriracha)



Stir together sweet pepper relish, peanuts, lime juice, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, green onions, garlic, and chili sauce. Cover and chill until ready to serve.




Zucchini Noodles

6 zucchini

2 teaspoons salt

3 tablespoons margarine

1 clove garlic, minced (optional)

salt and black pepper to taste

1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese



Cut zucchini into thin, noodle-like strips (a mandoline works well for this). Toss with the 2 teaspoons salt, and place in a colander to drain for 30 minutes.

Bring a pot of water to boil. Add zucchini; cook for one minute. Drain; rinse immediately with cold water to stop cooking.

Heat margarine in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add zucchini and garlic; cook and stir until just tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.







Touch of Grace biscuits using Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix

I made the Touch of Grace biscuits again today, but I used Krusteaz Buttermilk Pancake mix instead of self rising flour. These are like drop biscuits, but you drop them into dry flour, dust them off and bake them in a cake pan.



Yes, as a substitute for self-rising flour I used some Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix to make the Touch of Grace biscuits. I adapted the original recipe by cutting the added sugar and salt in half.



The biscuits came out great (no they didn't taste like pancakes). Krusteaz already had a recipe on their website to make regular cut-out biscuits from their mix. The mix is made from a low protein flour, so these are really light, fluffy and cake-like. One advantage of using the mix, absolutely no baking powder taste at all.



So here are the substitute ingredients I used with the New York Times "Touch of Grace biscuits" recipe link below:



Touch of Grace biscuits using Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix



Ingredients:



2 cups Krusteaz buttermilk pancake mix, dry

2 Tbsp sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

4 tablespoons vegetable shortening or lard

1 1/3 cups buttermilk, or as needed



The dry flour to roll the scooped wet biscuit dough in:



1/2 cup all-purpose flour

1 tsp sugar

1/4 tsp salt



Instructions:



1. Heat oven to 400 degrees, and arrange a shelf slightly below center of oven. Spray a 9-inch cake pan with nonstick cooking spray. In a large mixing bowl, stir together the Krusteaz Pancake Mix, sugar and salt. Work shortening in with your fingers until there are no large lumps. Gently stir in the buttermilk so that dough resembles wet cottage cheese.



2. Spread 1/2 cup all-purpose flour (with 1 tsp sugar and 1/4 tsp salt mixed in) across a plate or pie pan. Using a medium (about 2 inches, No. 30) ice cream scoop or spoon, place three scoops of dough well apart in flour. Sprinkle flour over each. Flour your hands. Turn the dough in flour to coat, shaping a ball and shaking off excess flour as you work. Place each ball in prepared pan; biscuits should be touching one another. Continue shaping until all dough is used.



3. Bake until lightly browned (and center of a biscuit reaches 190-F), 24 to 28 minutes. Brushed with melted butter. Invert onto a plate, then back onto another. With a knife or spatula, cut quickly between biscuits to make them easy to remove. Serve immediately.



Yield: about 12 biscuits.



Links to original recipe and Shirley Corriher video of her making the biscuits.





Touch of Grace original biscuit recipe in New York Times article in the link below:

Here is a link to a YouTube video showing Shirley Corriher (the food science lady on Alton Brown's Good Eats show) preparing her "Touch of Grace Biscuits". It's an interesting technique and it really works to produce a light, fluffy, tender biscuit.

Following the massive critical and box office successes that were Gravity and The Heat, Academy Award-winner Sandra Bullock is riding high, and surely has her pick of projects. But before she may or may not strap in for The Heat 2, Bullock is locking in for a political dramedy from David Gordon Green. Variety reports Sandra Bullock has signed on to star in Our Brand Is Crisis. Warner Bros. has greenlit the project, which boasts writer-director David Gordon Green as its helmer. But Bullock is not only starring in the political pic, she's also set to produce alongside her Gravity co-star George Clooney, and his Smokehouse Pictures partner, Grant Heslov. Currently unknown is if Clooney is eyeing a role for himself in the film.

We don’t doubt it. Naturally, a studio brings back a property like Jurassic World because it wants to tap into the nostalgia of a beloved series. But that goodwill only goes so far, and the audiences will quickly turn on a sequel if there isn’t a great story to be told. Vincent D’Onofrio sounds like he was won over by the sentimentality of being on a Jurassic set. And while Steven Spielberg wasn’t sitting behind that camera’s lens, the actor still couldn’t believe that he was part of something that has such a rich history. D’Onofrio said: It’s not the same feeling you have on any other set. This world that was created by Steven Spielberg. When you’re on that set -- I remember the first couple days on the set it was so weird it. You see, ‘Oh, there’s the jeep from so and so,’ and [whispers] ‘Oh {omitted}{omitted}{omitted}{omitted}, that’s…oh {omitted}{omitted}{omitted}{omitted}!,’ and everything looks so Jurassic-y. It’s quite something. Then you have to realize that, you know, {omitted}{omitted}{omitted}{omitted}, you know, I’m playing a real guy in a real situation, and you gotta start acting."

Our Brand Is Crisis is an intriguing next project for David Gordon Green. He started out an indie darling with films like George Washington and All The Real Girls. But blew up as a the helmer of such outlandish and crude comedies as Pineapple Express, Your Highness and The Sitter. The latter two of these earned him little but scorn from critics, and underwhelmed or flat-out failed at the box office. But then Green rebounded with two intimate and celebrated indies.

Bullock was first connected to Our Brand Is Crisis back in December. Then her character, "'Calamity' Jane Bodine, was described as the lead. Bodine is a hard-talking American political consultant who relies on quoting great men to persuade ambitious ones. From here, we suspect Warner Bros will be shopping for a suitable supporting cast, and more big names. With Clooney producing, signing stars should be no problem. Consider the casts of some of his most recent productions. Best Picture winner Argo boasted Ben Affleck, Alan Arkin, Bryan Cranston, John Goodyman and Kyle Chandler. August: Osage County had an insanely star-stuffed cast that included Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Benedict Cumberbatch, Chris Cooper, Juliette Lewis and Ewan McGregor. And then of course Monuments Men--which Clooney also directed and starred--hosted a cavalcade of beloved actors, from Matt Damon and Bill Murray to Jean Dujardin, Hugh Bonneville, Bob Balaban, and Cate Blanchett. Simply put, Our Brand Is Crisis is off to a great start with Sandra Bullock, but we expect this cast will only get better.

First came the R-rated dramedy Prince Avalanche, which starred Paul Rudd and Emile Hirsch as a odd couple of road workers bound together in isolation as they rebuild a damages strip of rural highway. Next came Joe, a gritty drama that starred a bearded Nic Cage, and reminded many what depth and talent the oft over-the-top performer still possesses.

Chicken Tortellini Casserole

Chicken Tortellini Casserole



1 package (8 ounce size) tortellini

8 ounces Monterey Jack cheese, divided

4 chicken breasts, boned skinned, cubed

flour for coating

3 tablespoons olive oil

3/4 cup onion, chopped

1 tablespoon chicken bouillon granules

1 cup chicken broth

1 can (4 ounce size) mushrooms, drained

1/2 cup sour cream





Preheat oven to 300 degrees F.



Cook tortellini 5 minutes less than package directions indicate, so that in the oven, the pasta still will be able to absorb juices without becoming mushy. Drain well and place in bottom of lightly greased 8 1/2 x 11 inch pan.



Thinly slice half of the cheese and spread over the pasta. Roll chicken breasts in flour and lightly brown in olive oil. Remove chicken from pan and cook the onions in the same pan until transparent. Add bouillon. chicken broth, and mushrooms. Bring to a slow boil and cook for 5 minutes. Add the remaining cheese and continue cooking until cheese is melted. Turn off heat. Add sour cream and blend well.



Place the chicken pieces over the tortellini in pan. Pour the sauce over the chicken and cover with foil.

Which has wrapped its filming and now

A lot has been written about Jurassic World, the fourth film in the dinosaur franchise but the first to try and resurrect the series after years of complacency. Some of the information has come straight from the cast, as when co-leads Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard hosted The Today Show on the Louisiana set. Some has come from set spies, leaking footage of things we likely weren’t supposed to see. But co-star Vincent D’Onofrio says that the story online is mostly wrong, and he should know. He’s in the movie!



Vincent D’Onofrio spoke with Screen Crush recently about his role in the indie film Mall, as well as the upcoming Netflix series Daredevil, where he has been cast as The Kingpin of crime, Wilson Fisk. While they had him, though, the site also asked about Colin Trevorrow’s Jurassic World, which has wrapped its filming and now faces a long road through post-production. And D’Onofrio ended up being very candid about the Internet’s treatment of the sequel, stating:

You know, I’ve seen a lot of the stories out there. None of them really have it. Yeah, not really. … You have no idea what’s in store. There really are a couple of, I would say more than five or six scenes in that, that are just totally iconic, like amazing."
