Demo + Some Food Tasting: 1) Julienne, Brunoise & Mirepoix
A 'julienne' (also called a "matchstick") is a
type of cut that makes a long thin strip, a good technique for garnishes. A 'brunoise' is a
small cube of about 3 mm or less on each side. Common items that are brunoised are leeks, turnips and carrots. The diced vegetables are blanched briefly in salty boiling water and then submerged in ice water for a few seconds to set the color. 'Mirepoix' is a combination of onions, carrots, and celery. Mirepoix, either raw, roasted or sautéed with butter, is the flavor base for a wide number of dishes, such as stocks, soups, stews and sauces. 2) Tomato Confit
Tomatoes that have been blanched, shocked in ice water, deseeded then sliced or diced. A common component used in French cuisine. 3) Chicken Stock & Veal Stock
Forms the basis of many French & Western dishes, particularly soups and sauces. Stock is made by simmering various ingredients in water, including a mirepoix (chopped carrots, celery, onions and leeks); aromatics or a bouquet garni (bundle of herbs) such as parsley, thyme and bay leaves, bundled & tied up in leek with butcher's string; meat (chicken or veal) for flavour; and/or bones for gelatin. 4) Vinaigrette & Mayonnaise
Learn the technique of creating a emulsion. A vinaigrette is a mixture (emulsion) of oil (olive or other oils) and vinegar (balsamic, raspberry, etc) flavoured with herbs and other ingredients. It can then used as a salad dressing, sauce or marinade. A mayonnaise is a stable emulsion of oil and an acidic liquird such as vinegar or lemon juice, with many options for embellishment with herbs. Egg yolk is the traditional emulsifier. Learn the correct proportions and ideas for flavours (mustard, honey, lemon, garlic, etc). 5) White Wine Cream Sauce & Red Wine Sauce
A white wine based sauce using chicken stock and finished with cream; a red wine based sauce using the veal stock. 6) Roux, Mornay Sauce & Veloute Soup
'Roux' is a cooked mixture of flour and fat, traditionally clarified butter. It is the thickening agent of 3 of 'mother sauces' in classical French cooking: sauce mornay, sauce béchamel, sauce velouté and sauce espagnole. Butter or vegetable oils are commonly used fats. It is used as a thickener for gravy, other sauces, soups and stews.
