Recipes from the trial run

My group from culinary class did a trial run on Wednesday of the food we'll be serving at our final presentation dinner in 2 weeks. Our event has a jazz theme. I will post the pictures of the food and our table set up soon. The food was absolutely
out of this world : D Here is what we made:



  • Salad

  • A little bit of heavy whipping cream and white pepper made the dressing even better.



  • Cajun spiced chicken




  • Creole Meuniere Sauce

  • The sweetness of the creole sauce is a perfect match for the spice of the chicken.



  • Bourbon Street New York Strip Steak




  • American–style red beans and rice

  • Our next batch will have andouille sausage in it.



  • Bananas Foster

  • The dessert was heavenly. I normally think bananas are too gross to eat, but in this dessert they tasted amazing : D Ask my team members how many times I said this morning, "*sigh* I want another Bananas Foster."
