Class description
This course offers a super delicious menu that takes you on a culinary journey and showcases various cooking techniques. Each dish is carefully selected to provide a perfect balance of flavor and texture.
Aperitif: We start with sautéed shrimp in a bisque of Hokkaido pumpkin and coconut milk. The pumpkin brings a sweet, nutty note that perfectly complements the creamy coconut milk and the tender, pan-sautéed shrimp.
Starter: Next, we have Capriccio Maki, lemon-parmesan mousse, chive tamagoyaki, and caper-shoyu. Here, you'll learn how to roll sushi, make a delicate mousse, and perfectly fry the tamagoyaki.
Main: The main course is a showstopper: veal cheeks in red curry broth, served with sous-vide green asparagus and fine cauliflower purée. The veal cheeks are slowly braised to become buttery tender, while the asparagus is cooked sous-vide to retain its freshness. The cauliflower purée is finely blended for a creamy texture.
Dessert: To finish, there's green tea tiramisu cream with bourbon vanilla genoise and pineapple-mint tartare. You'll learn how to prepare the tiramisu cream, bake the genoise airy, and finely dice the tartare.
This menu is a great mix of traditional and modern cuisine, offering you the chance to discover new flavor combinations and techniques. Perfect for anyone who loves to eat well and try new things!
How does this activity work?
- After a welcome reception and once all participants arrive, we will introduce ourselves and go through the menu and recipes so we can build the teams.
- We will start with the prep all together, where each team will prepare at least one recipe.
- Then we plate the menu, in normal sequence, where each team responsible will finish and serve their preps for all participants, as done in a restaurant, while the other teams await their meals.
- During the meals we can delve into the details of the recipes.
You can book with your small team or build one once here.
I will be overseeing the hole procedure, answering questions, showing first steps, giving directions and tips individually and in general.
Bring a notebook if you wish to take note of modifications and tips.
You will have a printed recipe to work with and a digital version sent to you.
