There is another project That is under up a bit of a bombshell of A project that we're working on that is Not like an external thing like the book But something that has to do absolutely With the content we're making cooking Videos tutorial etc etc this year I'm Going to be able to talk about it Showcase the thing to you and it's going To be launching this year as well now That's for the new to announcement so we Are not cooking today but we're starting On Thursday and as part of these new More organized worth making videos we're Going to be starting with a series of Videos where I'm gonna be simplifying Some French recipe and turn them into One pot recipe because Many people when I was on a break I keep On hearing are French cooking use Millions of pans our French cooking is Too complex there's too many steps and Stuff like which is absolutely true you Know if you're cooking by the book so What we're gonna do in that series of Video starting with a chicken fricassee A very simple it's how to take these More convoluted recipes simplify them Without breaking the recipe and just Making them with that one pot fashion so This is going to be in line with what we Call a Cuisine de Minaj and which is the Pure style of home cooking and I think To define the cuisine manage really is

Have you ever wondered why most of the Vinaigrettes in the grocery store are made with 10, 20, sometimes even almost 30 ingredients? I remember growing up in Provence watching my mother whipping vinaigrettes before every single dinner. She would mix in a giant bowl, delicious extra virgin olive oil, a robust aged vinegar (the flavor would depend on the main dish), sea salt and pepper and voila! I decided to do the same thing for my family and friends more than 20 years ago here in this beautiful country. And Provence Kitchen® was born. Stay tune for more articles and wonderful family recipes..
