Recipes from a French Farmhouse – Jan 23 (FULL)
Beef Bourguignon, Burgundy’s traditional beef stew, is at the heart of France’s culinary culture and enjoyed throughout the country. This silky, slow-cooked mixture of meat, garlic, onions, and mushrooms in a rich wine sauce is the ultimate wintry comfort food. Learn to make a simplified, less time-consuming version of this rustic dish, along with a Tartiflette, a cheesy, bacon-studded potato gratin. Round out the menu with a warm dessert of winter fruit Clafoutis. Shawnie shares her in-depth knowledge of regional food traditions, wine pairings, cheese, and variations on the stew, while taking you on a visual virtual tour of the breathtaking countryside of Burgundy.
A Winter Tuscan Dinner – Feb 20
Celebrate winter with these rustic, yet complex-tasting dishes with centuries-old roots in Tuscany – perfect comfort food for a winter gathering. Beginning with a fail-proof egg dough recipe, we demonstrate how to turn out homemade pasta for a Spicy Walnut Spaghetti unexpectedly laced with warm spices and a hint of sweetness. The main dish is accompanied by a hearty Minestrone and Kale Pesto Soup and dessert of Florentine Carnival Cake, an orange-infused sponge cake popular leading up to Easter. Discuss wines that pair perfectly with this aromatic menu and learn about culture, history and food traditions of Tuscany as you take virtual slide-show tour through the lovely Tuscan countryside.
