QUICHE AU FROMAGE
This triple cheese quiche is simply sensational. I carefully chose three styles of cheese (hard, soft, and a blue cheese) to create a fine balance of flavors. The nuttiness of the Comté contrasts beautifully with the soft, creamy texture of Fontina, and the addition of pieces of blue cheese on top delivers a little nugget of treasure every now and then.
FISH A LA MINUTE
In home cooking, à la minute refers to a recipe that can be made in a flash, and this recipe is a fine example. Fish à la minute is a gratifying way to cook fresh fish filets in a one-pot fashion without sacrificing taste. Use any fish with a flaky texture (e.g., cod, halibut or seabass) and bake in the winning combination of shallots, white vermouth, white wine, parsley and olive oil with a sprinkle of bread crumbs. It’s the answer to those long days where you need something fast but tasty.
CHICKEN VELOUTE SAUCE
The principles and techniques for making a velouté are nearly identical to those for béchamel. For instance, the thickness of the velouté depends on the amount of roux used with the stock. It's as simple as that and incredibly effective. Velouté sauces offer versatility, as you can use various cooking stocks to impart specific flavors. Chicken stock yields a chicken velouté, fish stock results in a fish velouté, and so forth.
EASY DEMI GLACE
The demi-glace is a valuable shortcut for crafting mouthwatering sauces that can save you hours in the kitchen. It’s created by enhancing stock with meat trimmings, aromatics, wine, and thickening with flour. I'll share a home-friendly method that maintains quality and efficiency, allowing you to prepare a homemade demi-glace effortlessly. Once you master this technique, you'll never look back.
ESCOFFIER CHICKEN marseillaise
Poulet Sauté a la Marseillaise is highly unusual in traditional French cuisine. This chicken dish beautifully blends chili with classic French techniques to create a fiery flavor profile.
