All About Food Variety - The Series - Class 6


Lose yourself with the first bite. The French Bistro was the "hot" topic of the evening. Our menu was not only eye pleasing but also mouth pleasing. The class tonight made; Balsamic Marinated Pork Tenderloin, Parsnip Carrot Red Potato Mash and Steamed Asparagus Tips. With a menu like this one everyone left very satisfied.

The pork tenderloin was so moist and juicy, that melt in your mouth good. This pork was the best ever and the balsamic marinade added that extra lip smacking flavor to take it over the top. The final meat once rested was cut against the grain and on a bias then drizzled with a reduction of balsamic vinegar.

The starch element was a nice spin to regular mash potatoes. Full of color, texture and vitamins. Who knew the combination could taste so good.

The meal was balanced with steamed asparagus and fresh tomato relish.

Until then, I look forward to seeing you in the kitchen.
