Description
Bonjour à tous! In this class, we’ll craft a delectable French-infused menu that honors tradition while exploring innovative combinations. Our main course is a “Burger de Saumon avec Pain de Portobello” — a Salmon Burger served on a Portobello Mushroom Bun. You’ll learn how to prepare a succulent salmon patty, seasoned with fresh herbs de Provence, Dijon mustard, and a hint of lemon zest. The star of this dish, however, is the “bun”. You’ll prepare and grill thick, meaty Portobell0 mushrooms to perfection, offering a gluten-free and deliciously savory alternative to traditional bread. The dish is garnished with fresh greens, a light tarragon aioli, and a side of pommes frites for a complete Parisian bistro experience.
After mastering the main course, we will then turn our attention to a beloved French dessert — “Crème Brûlée.” Learn how to create this rich, creamy custard base infused with vanilla beans, and experience the thrill of caramelizing the sugary top layer with a blowtorch to achieve that satisfying, crackly shell. This dessert is an exercise in contrasts — cool and warm, soft and hard, sweet and slightly bitter — and the perfect way to end our gastronomic adventure.
At the end, we’ll gather around my dining table to savor our creations.
Regardless of your cooking skill level, this class aims to offer an enjoyable, hands-on experience that ends with a satisfying meal. Let’s embark on this culinary journey together and bring a bit of French flair to your cooking repertoire. A très bientôt!
