I am sure you enjoyed my previous Simply #French Homefresh Experience and were all salivating for Coq au Vin and like me via Chef Jean-Claude du Toulouse, was “inspired” with All you need is Soufflé!

Did I mention no previous skills are needed and EVERYONE takes a turn in participating throughout the night; this is a VERY interactive “hands-on” cooking class sharing #Middle Eastern Passion through Homefresh Experience Smiles!
Courtesy of HomeFresh Experience, I was VERY excited to be participating in this Flavours of the Middle East cooking class recreating exotic dishes; having fun along the way and meeting strangers who became friends at the end of the class is a bonus too!
Chef Jean-Claude took the group on a journey of the Middle East through various stories as well as emphasizing Middle Eastern dishes surround fresh produce (like the herbs and vegetables from his garden).

Chef Jean-Claude shared on the night about how our Middle Eastern dishes would be about “The Crescent” and “The Sun.”
“What’s the crescent and the sun?”, I “hear” you ask?
I can’t give away ALL of chef Jean-Claude’s secrets on the night!Image may be NSFW.

I will give you a hint, the sun and the crescent do symbolically represent the world and it was also the shapes of the pumpkin and sweet potatoes that were included in the “communally enjoyed dishes.” Image may be NSFW.

It was GREAT to see #Middle Eastern Passion through Homefresh Experience Smiles while the group prepped herbs, vegetables, garnish, how chef Jean-Claude taught how to butterfly chicken breasts, how to stuff chicken breasts, how to prepare and decorate the “delightful” dessert and how plating is important to name “only a few” things people learned on the night!

Chef Jean-Claude demonstrated making “the proper consistency” of pesto to stuff the chicken breasts with as if the mixture was too runny, it would run (pun intended Image may be NSFW.

The secret ingredient on the night was pistachios!
