Skills 2 Day 8

Today in skills we made braised short ribs. Then we prepared polenta to go with the short ribs, braised endive, and roasted root vegetables. The root vegetables included carrot, parsnip, turnip and rutabaga. Last but not least we had to blanch brussel sprouts to go with the roasted vegetables. We learned about braising and stewing in lecture. We must know the differences between the two and also their similarities. Also we have to know the sauce options for braises. The day went really well and the short ribs were delicious and I was a huge fan of the polenta!
