Skills 3 Day 9 & 10

Beef stew

Chicken Fricassee

Day 9 and 10 we would be learning all about braising and stewing. On day 9 I made beef stew, whipped potatoes, battonett vegetables, and for the garnish we made these little things that look like a potato chip. Then right before service we had to top it all with parsley that was chopped up. Day 10 we made chicken fricassee, chicken fricassee is a white stew. I really enjoy this dish because the chicken is so moist and all the components together make for a nice filling lunch or dinner. Accompanying the chicken fricassee was rice pilaf and battonett squash, beans and peppers. For the rice pilaf we mixed wild rice and jasmine rice to give the rice some more appeal. Both days went well and chef was happy with the groups!
