Last month I hosted another Cooking with Trader Joe’s Cooking Class in Murrieta. When last year, I thought about new cooking classes I wanted to introduce to the Community. A class using only Trader Joe’s products was obviously a great option, since during most of my Cooking Classes I am using Trader Joe’s products. For the last class Margaret, Valerie, Angela ( At the time I am writting it she is in Paris, having delicious breakfast with croissant et Cafe au lait!), Alicia, Angela and Jenny join this fun class. And as usual it was a fun evening, everyone was chatting, laughting, teaking turn in watching things cooking on the stove, or working on their own creation and cleaning. This time the menu was oriented “Autumn flavors” and I have to say it was a great menu !
We started with my famous Goat cheese crostini topped with fresh chives. Then we made a Endives salad, with toasted halzenut, fresh pears with an Orange vinaigrette. It was ligh, refreshing and crunchy a really good combination. Then we made a Mushroom Risotto with Wild dried Mushrooms and fresh white mushrooms. A very nice combination and warm dish. Then we made Sole filet en papilotte with only white wine, fresh chives , herbs and lemon, salt-pepper.
Then came the dessert . I am always amazed that people have still room for a dessert because we had quite of food during this class!
We made Brioche -Almond served with Dark Morello Cherries. It was something unique and really delicious. Since we had some white wine left from the Risotto we finished it.
A special Thank You to Trader Joe’s Temecula CA, and especially Michael the new manager who offered for free some of the Items used during the class.
After having a Trader Joe’s class with me, stop by to TJ’s store and tell the manager and his crew that you had a cooking class with Trader Joe’s!
