Spring Provençal Lunch with Tess Kelly

Take a trip to the South of France and enjoy its simply delicious food without leaving the Hudson Valley or Berkshires. In this class Tess Kelly will share the nuances and techniques for a classic three-course Provençal lunch. We’ll start with soup known as Soupe au Pistou, a broth-based vegetable soup originating from Provence, a southern region in France which shares a border with Italy. Undeniably, the region’s cuisine is very much influenced by its neighbor. This version will be a parsley spinach pistou which will be on top of the spring vegetable soup and served with toasted baguette brushed with olive oil. The soup will be followed by Fish in Beurre Blanc and potatoes Lyonnaise. For dessert Tess will make Crème Brûlée. Join us for this very French, very informative demonstration class followed by lunch!
