Method of Cooking
Pork Escalope
In this weeks lab we will be sautéing in a fry pan or sauté pan pork scallops. Then I will sauté the apples in the same pan until they are tender but not brown. Lastly, I will create a sauce until it reaches nappe(Allows food to be coated evenly; hollandaise) consistency, then add in the pork scallops and let them get happy.
Lyonnaise Potato
We will start the potatoes by boiling them to perfection. Once the potatoes are cooked I will take them out and begin sautéing unions. After this I will sauté the potatoes then add the unions in for a final sauté.
Green Beans
For the green beans I will boil them first under tender then will add them to a sauté pan and throw bacon, garlic, and seasoning to finish it off. Going to be amazing.
