Cooking Class: Elevated French Feast With Chef Damon
Prepare a three-course French menu in this cooking class with Chef Damon.
As the class begins, you'll learn the proper technique for making caramelized onions with a perfect golden brown finish. Then, use the onions to make a savory broth for French onion soup topped with melty Gruyère cheese. Next, you will choose between two main course dishes. Braise tender chicken in rich red wine with mushrooms and onions to make a decadent coq au vin. Or make a savory beef Bourguignon, a braised stew with red wine, carrots and onions. Learn how to make fresh pastry dough for tarts filled with seasoned fruit for an indulgent dessert to end the meal.
