In this 5-course cooking class, step into the charm of Parisian dining as you prepare an elegant French-inspired menu influenced by Emily in Paris. Guided by an expert chef, you’ll learn essential French culinary techniques while creating a multi-course meal from scratch using classic ingredients and traditional methods.
Begin with freshly served French baguette and butter, the quintessential Parisian table starter. Then, master the art of making a light and airy cheese soufflé, learning how to achieve the perfect rise and delicate texture. For the main course, sear duck breast to perfection and build a rich Dijon cream sauce with white wine, shallots and fresh tarragon. Pair it with creamy dauphinoise potatoes layered and baked until golden and tender.
Finish the evening by whipping up a decadent chocolate mousse topped with fleur de sel, balancing rich chocolate with delicate savory notes. Along the way, you’ll sharpen your skills in soufflé-making, pan-searing, sauce building and elegant plating before sitting down to enjoy your gourmet Parisian feast.
