In this delicious and fun hands-on cooking & baking class you'll make a 4-course meal:
Appetizer – Savory Thyme Pate
Salad – Flavorful Butter Lettuce, French Radishes, Capers & Shallot w/ Lemony Tarragon Dijon Dressing.
Entrée – Magnificent Ratatouille w/fresh herbes de Provence, which you will enjoy with locally made rustic baguette.
Dessert - Delightful Pear Lavender Tart w/ crushed pistachios and a touch of fleur de sel (diary-egg-free, but not gluten-free), which you'll enjoy with lavender-infused organic French roast coffee.
You'll enjoy your beautiful culinary creations with a delicious French red wine, the Château La Chèze 2015 Côtes de Bordeaux, which beautifully complements the Provencal Cuisine!
