A NEW GENERATION OF COOKS - FOCUS ON FRANCE
A New Generation of Cooks is designed for children, ages 7 to 11, excited to take their cooking journey to the next level. Lydia Gwin has inspired her own children to take charge in the kitchen with the skills and responsibilities that come along with cooking exciting dishes. Focus will be on cooking an international cuisine utilizing a variety of techniques, and will include lessons on geography, language and culture.
This hands-on class will focus on France with classic quiche Lorraine served with field green salad with Dijon dressing, open-face ham and gruyère croque madame - a staple of French cafés topped with homemade béchamel sauce and a fried egg, design-your-own dessert crêpes with a choice of fillings from Nutella, jam, or simple beurre et sucre, and finish with a plat de fromage with four classic French cheeses to explore flavors, textures, and a few French adjectives to add to your vocabulary.
