French Bistro Classics, with Katy Kinsolving

Who doesn’t love classic French bistro food? What most do not realize is this cuisine is surprisingly fast to cook, even though it has classical French roots. Katy’s recipes are a decidedly modern take on this iconic food. In this demonstration class you’ll learn basics such as how to create a classic vinaigrette plus a go-to chicken dish, And if you’ve ever wanted to learn to make Tarte Tatin, this is your chance! Join Katy on this little escape to Paris.

Menu will include:

• Poulet à l’estragon (aka Fricasse of Chicken with Shallots and Tarragon)
• Braised Seasonal vegetables
• Salade verte with vinaigrette aux noix
• Tarte Tatin aux Poire

This demonstration class is limited to 12 people.
