This menu of Italian classics has been transformed into a vegan feast that will appeal to vegans and non-vegans alike. In this class you will learn how to make no-meat, no-dairy counterparts to these well-loved dishes, without losing the flavors and textures that make them so popular.

Then you will make the risotto, and Chef Paul will share his tips for creating a fabulous vegetable stock, a staple of many vegan dishes. This menu includes a tasty carrot miso spread, served over toasted and sliced baguette, and a fresh and cool raspberry sorbet.

Bring a bit of France to your kitchen with four authentic French recipes designed by Chef Paul.  You’ll start off by making a mesclun salad with a blend of arugula, leafy lettuces and endive topped with Chef Paul’s No-Fail vinaigrette (you will use this recipe forever, je vous assure). For the main course you’ll prepare a classic Cornish hen – a great substitue for a whole roasted chicken, and with a shorter cooking time – with a paprika rub. To accompany this, you’ll prepare Chef Paul’s favorite nutmeg-spiced scalloped potatoes. For dessert, whip up a dreamy raspberry soufflé (Oui, mon ami, you can) completely from scratch.
