Unlock the full potential of one of the world’s most versatile ingredients in this hands-on potato cooking class. Together, we’ll explore classic French preparations—from rich, buttery pommes fondant to silky pommes purée and luxuriously layered pommes dauphinoise.
Along the way, you’ll learn how different potato varieties behave—and why technique matters. We’ll break down the differences between starchy, waxy, and all-purpose potatoes, tasting our way through each preparation while applying chef-driven methods that highlight their best textures and flavors.
Whether you’re looking to elevate your weeknight cooking or deepen your understanding of culinary fundamentals, this class will give you the confidence and skills to transform humble potatoes into standout dishes.
