Happy International Pi Day! Let’s Warm Up at Vite Vinosteria! We recently learned that Hugue Dufour of famed M. Wells (Diner, Dinette, Steakhouse) is teaching cooking classes next month! He is offering two classes—a Cassoulet Class and a Maple Class—in February and March (NB: new curricula happening in April—we’ll bring you details on that when it’s set). We reached out to them and got more details from Sarah Obraitis, which we’ve published below. Sounds like an amazing opportunity! To reserve your spot in the class, please call 718-786-9060 or write: Sarah@MagasinWells.com. Capacity status is as of today, January 31. Hugue packs an incredible amount of information and fun in a three-hour class that includes history, theory, demonstration, technique, recipes, stories and style. Audience participation and hands on activity may be as much or as little as desired. Cassoulet Class March 19, 3-6pm OPEN In preparation for the third annual Cassoulet War (Hugue scored first place at D’Artagnan’s first annual event), Chef is willing to share his winning recipe. Hugue will focus on the following components: preparing the Tarbais beans, perfecting the meats (the salt, the confit, the sausage and the braise), making the sauce and assembling properly. You will easily pick up 10 separate recipes that will come in handy for many other applications. Maple Class February 26, 3-6pm, FILLING UP March 26, 3-6pm OPEN Maple syrup plays heavy on the mind of a chef from Québec. Maple in all its forms and functions are featured here in Hugue’s recipes for pork rinds, baked beans, potato waffles and gravlax, pineapple maple ham, crepes, pouding chômeur, warm cocktails and of course maple taffy. Classes are $150 per person and that includes a big meal, wine, a resource and recipe book, a raffle and a lifetime of memorable advice. Hugue has strut his skills during two seasons of the bi-lingual hit tv show Martin sur la route and he’s prominently featured in the documentaries Le Steakhouse and Durs à Cuire. Also note: They are taking a break in early March so that they can celebrate the sap-tapping season, and will be hosting a Sugar Shack on Sunday afternoons at the Steakhouse on March 5 and 12.
