Week 7 - Plated Desserts


I know I am so far overdue to finish the blog; I was so busy and sick during the last two weeks in France to the time since I’ve been back.  No excuses!  As my grandmother (Mama) told me “you can’t be back, you haven’t finished your blog…”

Well here it is:

February 25-28

This week we had plated desserts, taught by the same chef we had for Petit
Fours & Revisited Classics.  Again his excuse for us is he’s a new chef and doesn’t know the curriculum or program layout, and how the product should turn out.  I was the same excuse every class; it’s our first time taking the class. 
So we went through the week prepping all the different components, finishing the day’s production list extremely quickly, and then twiddling our thumbs during the rest of the time in class.  On Friday, we assembled and plated each dessert.  We also have our “buffet”.  Definitely wasn’t our best work.
