I completely love reading Kenji's work, but have had some disappointing results from some of his recipes.

 

I agree.  I really do like him, but I think sometimes he solves the problem for himself and doesn't go through the repeatability stuff that might've been expected at ATK.  I was excited to learn of his 2-minute mayo technique, but like quite a few of his commenters, I had about a 50% failure rate.  I eventually figured it out and wanted to post my findings on his site, but they shut down comments after a certain amount of time.  Anyway, it turns out he was right, it does work,  but it's not as foolproof as he made it out to be.
