Personal chef serving healthy, sustainably sourced meals in wine country.
Obligatory Garde Manger Day 1 Shot.
Our last class before externship is Garde Manger with Chef Lars who will teach us how to make a myriad of charcuterie items, sauces, and accompaniments to be served on our class’s grande buffet at the end of each week. Items to be covered include: fresh sausages, salumi, pancetta, bacon, bresaola, smoked fish, corn beef, creme fraiche, fresh mozzarella, brioche, gougeres, pates, terrines, rillettes, liver mousse, torchons, aspic, pickles, even sushi.
Needless to say, I am stoked.
