Muffuletta, King Cake & Beignets!
Take a culinary trip to New Orleans this Halloween with a festive, cook-along class with Chef Tess, that brings the flavors of Mardi Gras to life! Participants will be guided through the step-by-step process of making fresh Muffuletta bread, making a vibrant olive and veggie giardiniera-style condiment, before assembling this iconic, flavor-packed colossal sandwich. In addition, you will be absorbed in the process of how to make a full flavored, colorful King Cake, complete with festive flair & filling, and a surprise inside, and the making of warm, powdered sugar—dusted beignets as the instructor demonstrates the making of these two beloved New Orleans sweets. Perfect for families and food lovers alike, this cook-along class is all about celebration, bold flavors, and letting the good times roll... NOLA style! Cook Along: Muffuletta Bread, vibrant olive and veggie giardiniera-style condiment, and assembling the colossal sandwich with classic deli meats and cheeses.
Demonstration: New Orleans King Cake & Beignets! Given limited time, the King Cake will need to be demonstrated during the class. Both require the creation of different yeasted dough, that require proofing time beyond what the class allows for. Participants however will receive all the recipes.
