In this class we will look at some traditional French classics and recreate some well-loved, sometimes forgotten favourites. When we talk about the French classics, this can often mean two different things.
French is a cuisine very close to my heart and the source of some of my most enduring food memories. Many childhood holidays were spent in the coastal regions of Brittany and The Vendee, as well as winter trips to The Dordogne. As a chef, I also spent many years working in the ski resorts of Savoire, as well as stints in Paris and Bordeaux.
Food trends are ever-changing, and we are now lucky enough to have access to such a broad spectrum of cuisines and ingredients. As part of this though, I think sometimes we forget some of the old classics, and when I cook classic French at home, it always brings smiles to my families' faces.
While the day’s menu may change with the seasons and availability of ingredients, you can expect to make dishes such as:
At lunch, we’ll stop to eat what we have made in the morning and share a glass of wine while we chat with our fellow foodies on the course. There may be leftovers to take home, so please bring Storage containers.
The school has been established by chef Robin Stewart. Robin has over 30 years’ experience as a professional chef including in some of the World's top 5* kitchens. He has also developed recipes for some of the key British supermarkets. He is passionate about good quality ingredients and great tasting food. He loves nothing more than to help others develop skills in the kitchen, passing on hints and tips, techniques and short cuts which he has found useful throughout his career.
Rutland Cookery School offers full day workshops only. There are a maximum of nine people on any course which enables individual attention to be given when needed. All ingredients, aprons and equipment are supplied and at the end of the day you will be sent an email containing all the day’s recipes. Students work individually at their own, fully equipped workstation. Everyone cooks the same dishes, working at the same pace with each stage clearly demonstrated and explained. The emphasis of the workshop is not on slavishly following a recipe but on developing your own personal taste, judgement and techniques.
Whether you are an amateur or a keen cook your confidence and skill levels will be increased by attending one of these courses.
Cooking Together evenings are as much about chatting and relaxing as they are about learning and eating – the perfect blend of meal out and cookery class, we call it sociable foodie fun. One ticket is for 2 people, and you will cook your meal together.
