WEEK 2: Meats, Fish, and Sauces
Monday-Friday
9:30am-2:30pm
Designed for motivated home cooks who want to cook proteins with confidence and understand the sauces that complete a dish.
Cooking meat and fish to the right doneness is one of the biggest challenges for home cooks. This intensive bootcamp removes the guesswork by teaching students how to understand different cuts, choose the right cooking method, control heat, season properly, and recognize doneness with greater confidence.
Students explore basic butchery, meat anatomy, dry-heat and moist-heat cooking methods, fish cookery, and the way proteins react to salt, acid, and heat. At the same time, they learn the foundations of sauce-making, including stocks, reductions, pan sauces, demi-glace, emulsions, and classic accompaniments.
Concepts and Dishes You Will Perform:
Chicken butchery
Dark Stock
Demi-glace
Chicken Caesar
Korean Fried Chicken
Tenderloin Steak with Peppercorn Sauce
Braised Shortribs with Mash potato
Lamb Popsicles with Curried Cream Sauce
Smash Burger
Salmon Burger
Poached Salmon with Hollandaise, Wilted Spinach
Salmon Wellington with Caper-Mayo Sauce
Seared Scallop with Seaweed Relish
Steamed Mussels
FAQ: Course is open to teens if accompanied by an adult (if they wish to take course on their own they must first go through an interview process).
