50 Years of Technique - Dinner with Jacques Pépin

Tickets include a Signed Copy of Complete Techniques, Cocktail Hour and a three course dinner and wine pairings prepared by James Beard Award Finalist Chef Renee Touponce, and inspired by the recipes and techniques of our dear friend Jacques.
About the book:
Comprehensive, authoritative, but never intimidating, Jacques Pepin's Complete Techniques--which combines the master chef's landmark works, La Methode and La Technique--includes more than 600 cooking techniques and methods along with 160 recipes.
Each recipe and technique is explained using step-by-step instructions accompanied by more than 1,000 photographs featuring P pin himself. Follow along as this culinary legend demonstrates every aspect of classic cooking, from start to finish, teaching readers how to bone a chicken, poach an egg, whisk a perfect hollandaise, knead a crispy baguette, or bake an exquisite meringue with the perfection and efficiency of a professional. Throughout the book are Pepin's classic recipes, which offer budding masters the opportunity to put lessons into practice with extraordinary results.
