Pastry – Bake a pie like a chef

Would you like to get your hands dirty and turn your kitchen into a creative culinary stage? Are you looking for ideas for a dessert that will delight your friends and family?

In this 3,30-hour workshop, we’ll make a lemon meringue tart and a pistachio-raspberry tart! First, we’ll discover how to knead a sweet dough by hand. Then, using whisks and pans, we’ll learn how to create the tangy balance of a lemon cream and an Italian meringue. Next, we’ll create an almond cream base, topped with a light pistachio cream and fresh fruits.

After reviewing the necessary ingredients, we’ll learn how to spread and darken a tart, understand the balance of flavors between the creams and obtain a meringue as light as a cloud. Finally, we’ll look at the secrets of masterful baking.

Skills required: None! This workshop is open to all sweet tooths.

The price includes all necessary materials, kitchen equipment, raw materials and good humor.

Cooking workshops are held in the kitchen of the Centre de Ressources et d’Action Communautaire de la Petite-Patrie (CRACPP), at the corner of Drolet and Bélanger. We’ll let you know the exact address once you’ve registered.

Note: remember to bring your containers so you can leave with the products you’ve made.
