This weekend, bring a bit of France to your kitchen with four authentic French recipes designed by Chef Paul.  We start off by building 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 Cornish hens with a paprika rub (which can be applied in advance and refrigerated) served with nutmeg-spiced scalloped potatoes. For dessert, whip up a dreamy raspberry soufflé (yes, you can) completely from scratch.
