COOKING CLASS: Normandy’s Comfort Cuisine 

Cream, butter, apples, and cheese – need I say more? Normandy’s comfort cuisine is a reflection of its countryside: ancient orchards, rolling pastures, and cider distilleries. Rustic country cooking inspires this warm winter menu. Learn to make Poulet á la Normade, one of Julia Child’s favorite northern French dishes. The comforting chicken recipe highlights the ingredients this region is best known for: apples, cider, and cream. A true one-pot wonder, accompanied by traditional sides of roasted potatoes and peas- but each with a special twist. End on a sweet note with Teurgoule, a sublime, slow-cooked dessert falling somewhere between rice pudding and cream brûlée. A wine pairing and recipes are included.
