Lesson “Tastes of Italy”
11.03.2012
Italian cuisine is an endless source of inspiration. Easy-to-cook and tasty dishes first travelled outside Italy in the first half of the 20th century, along with Italian immigrants. Now Italian cuisine has become the most popular one in the world and, of course, the most popular cuisine in our cooking school. This time, chef Konstantin Rossoshenko decided to slightly change the lesson menu and, in addition to lasagne and Tuscan salad with goat cheese, we prepared a dessert with an unusual name – Zuppa Inglese. According to the traditions of our school, we cooked together with the chef, analysing the details of each process so that we not only our eyes see the process, but our hands remember it. It’s easier to repeat the process when you cook yourself. The chef taught us how to cook bolognese and bechamel sauces, dough for airy biscuit, how to make chocolate glaze and cream. Sommelier Ksenia Yangulova, Goodwine, offered Valpolicella Classico Vigne Alte Zeni wine for lasagne, and Gran Dessert Dolce Santero for dessert. We dined all together with our large and friendly family at the end of the lesson, as it is customary in Italian culinary traditions.
