Whether enjoyed alone or as vital components in modern plated desserts, ice creams and sorbets present more than meets the eye. By looking deeper at their structures --- complex solutions, suspensions or emulsions --- pastry chefs continue to refine formulas, techniques and ingredients to create ever more flavorful results. In this class, students will be exposed to basic frozen dessert theory and will prepare a range of examples, from granitas, sorbets and classic ice creams to more innovative preparations and static frozen items.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.
