FINAL EXAM!!!


For my final exam i had to cook Chicken Chardonnay, broccoli hollandaise, glazed carrots, and rissole potatoes. I have made all these things before in class so i tried not to nervous. The chicken was simple, you just saute it to give it some color and then put it in one of those alluminum pie pans and finish it in the oven. The sauce is super easy too, it's mushrooms, onions, butter and some heavy cream and flour to thicken it. Thankfully the hollandaise i got on my first try. Last time i made hollandaise it took me 3 times to get it right. The carrots are super easy also. You just saute the carrots with butter and then add some chicken stock and sugar and just before you take them off add honey or maple syrup whatever you prefer. The potatoes were good too. You cut them into cubes and saute them with butter so they get a little color and then just put the pan and everything in the over and finish cooking them until they're tender. Overall i had a good final. I got a 93. See everyone next quarter...I'll be taking American cuisine so it should be very exciting!
