Pics from last day of Skills 2

i On our last day of class we made a banquet. Each group was responsible for a different part of the meal.

I took some pictures while we were prepping and cooking everything up.









































Duchesse potatoes:
Mashed potatoes mixed with egg yolks. We then put them through a pasty bag with a star tip and broiled them.














































Here they are barding filets with bacon.

Barding: wrapping with fat, in this case, bacon.
not to be confused with:
Larding: injecting with fat.









































































Breaded, pan-fried pork cutlet with sauteed vegetables and creamy polenta.





































Filet mignon with sauteed vegetables and Duchesse Potatoes.

The veggies look amazingly good.
I would tackle Derek to get to the potatoes.
