Real Housewife Melissa Gorga 'arrested for shoplifting in Florida when she was 18'. Melissa Gorga was made to suffer the humiliation of having her stripper past unearthed in the fourth season of Real Housewives of New Jersey. And now the 33-year-old reality star apparently has a new piece of dirty laundry to deal with: shoplifting.
French Roast is a method of roasting coffee beans. They're roasted twice, producing a rich, dark blend of coffee. This roast must have resilient beans to ensure perfection, so we use hard high-grown American beans.
This ensures beans are precisely cooked, but do not have a chance to over-cook, and using the ice water helps them retain color and flavor. It's how we get deliciously crisp haricot vert (French green beans) at the restaurant I work for. Note that cooking times and crispness will also vary based on the variety and age at which the beans were picked.
