Spend an inspirational day developing your culinary skills in our kitchen. Taught exclusively by Richard Bertinet and his team this day is fully hand on.
Today you will expand your knowledge with a detailed masterclass on saucing and seasoning. Master essential stocks and sauces alongside their accompaniments, learning how to properly match a dish and a sauce. On top of this, learn the secrets of seasoning, how it can pair with a sauce, highlight flavours, and provide a whole different food experience. There are a range of sauces to be learnt for a variety of dishes, from port velouté to salsa verde, from hollandaise to béchamel, alongside many others. You will be making a vegetable stock that you will also build into a chicken stock. There is also the inclusion of sweet sauces, such as crème pâtissière and crème anglaise that will also be turned into ice cream. Once all the sauces have been mastered you’ll sit to watch Richard cook more of the perfect pairings, such as onglet steak, mackerel and many more for you to enjoy dish by dish for lunch, with their accompanying sauces, plus wine of course!
This class will give you an intricate understanding of saucing and seasoning, as well as elevating your cooking to another level, making your dishes go from good to spectacular. You will be able to impress your friends and family with new understanding and skills, having built up your cooking repertoire and confidence.
This day course is suitable for beginners, experienced home cooks or those looking to pick up some insider chef skills that are usually kept for those in professional kitchens. You will leave us with full recipes from the day.
This class is fully hands on and includes lunch with wine.
The day starts at 10am and will finish around 3.30 to 4pm.
