Each class had a full course meal with detailed menus and instructions for each dish.
In our most recent class we started out by cooking some butter flake rolls!
Several folds are required for the rolls. Spreading butter on each layer is important because as the butter melts during the cooking process, it leaves a negative space that makes a separation between the layers and creates the signature "pull-apart" texture.
While the rolls were rising we started making the rice pilaf.
Next we put together a colorful salad with fresh blackberries, mangoes, toasted almonds and
coconut flakes tossed in a delicious coconut.
OOPS- overcooked! We got too busy demonstrating techniques and talking. Good thing the recipe
filled another tray :)
To finish off the night we made Pork Saltimboca: prosciutto and pork breaded
in a Panko-herb mixture
The meal was delicious! And to top if off, Chef Lou handed out brownies as the class left the kitchen. All in all, the class was a total success!
We'll be offering more cooking classes starting in 2013. Come have fun with us!
