Cooking Class: French Bistro Traditions With Chef Denis
Immerse yourself in French cuisine in this engaging cooking class led by Chef Denis.
In this cooking class, you'll learn how to make three dishes that put traditional French flavors on display. Begin the class by learning how to caramelize onions like a professional to make a traditional French onion soup topped with creamy Gruyère cheese. Move on to the main course, where you'll have your choice between two dishes. Braise a tender cut of chicken in red wine with onions and mushrooms to craft a rich coq au vin. Or make a savory stew with beef, red wine and carrots to make a boeuf Bourguignon. Discover the secret to making the perfect flaky pastry dough for tarts filled with seasonal fruit for a decadent dessert to end the meal.
