Chapter 3: Day Two (the accomplishment)


APRIL, 6TH 2010





Today we proceeded with lecture, took down copious notes, then off to demo it was to learn knife cuts. They're all pretty easy, except for Tourne, I can't seem to get those down for the life of me so I brought home some potatoes to practice on tomorrow. Today we were shown how to make "Pomme Vapeur" (Steamed Potatoes), and blanched spinach. Although my tourneed potatoes came out looking weird, I cooked them almost to perfection which then earned a pat on the back by Chef Whitmore, which isn't an easy thing to get, let me tell you. I'm slowly but surely getting my timing down, tomorrow I have to really push myself to do better, but for the most part I think I'm doing pretty well for the first couple days. Tomorrow we will be making Ratatouille, Glazed Vegetables and Braised Leeks, I love leeks AND i love Ratatouille, yummy!
