Delectable Cooking Demonstration!

Happy Monday,

I am sorry I am a bit late on posting the cooking demonstration, but at least I have all of you poised and anxious :)

After reading a book like My Life From Scratch it is only fitting we have a decadent cooking demonstration. I can say without a doubt, that Doug will definitely be delivering a cooking demonstration worthy of a master baker.

This months cooking demonstration is especially unique because one of our members inspired it. Doug found inspiration from Emily's Secret Santa gift. Emily gave Doug a chocolate orange and the goodness and flavor of chocolate/orange lingered with him that he wanted to incorporate these flavors into our demonstration. Doug will be showing a technique in which you cut the orange so all of the pulp is gone and the only thing remaining is the sweetness of the orange. The orange will be garnished with chocolate shavings. Then (oh yes it does it better) a sweet custard/cream will be poured over the orange and chocolate. The cream/custard is called sabayon. Sabayon is made in region all over Europe. The type of alcohol used dictates the where it is from. For this demonstration Doug was fairly certain he would use a sparking wine. But wait there's more! Doug will then brulee the orange chocolate sabayon. If your mouth is not watering at this point then you should get you taste buds checked :)

See you Wednesday at 6:30pm. Bring your sweet tooth!
