*~* Salt and Vinegar Chips and Green Beans *~*
Chef Brendan made these at Young Chefs Academy in Baton Rouge, LA. Mom and Dad got the class for him for Christmas and he really enjoyed it. The class was under $30 and lasted about 2 hours. He was only one of 5 kids there that night, but that can change depending on the night.
Sour was the theme, so the group made Salt & Vinegar Chips and Green Beans, Savory Kraut Strudel, and Sour Patch Cupcakes. Amazingly, Brendan ate all of it once the meal was ready.
Our wanna-be chef had fun and has not stopped talking about the class since that night. The place was clean, bright, and the staff was attentive and friendly. Young Chefs Academy has locations in several states.
You can find them in California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Louisiana, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Virginia. And I believe they are looking for more franchises.
Tonight, we remade the Salt and Vinegar Chips and Green Beans. If you like vinegar, you'll like these.
Drain and pat dry on paper towel. Add salt and pepper to taste.
Bake on sheet for 10 minutes or until crispy. (Different thicknesses for the potatoes may have some burn and some undercooked.)
Eat. If you like vinegar, you'll like these. The green beans burst with flavor.

How fun! I didn't know there was a school for young chefs. Our son is a chef-wanna-be as well. We'll have to look into this as we travel. He has been taking online cooking classes with Mixing Bowl Academy through Currclick.com
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize CurrClick had cooking classes! We use them for Lego Classes online! I'll have to check it out! Young Chefs was great and, at least in Baton Rouge, the manager was great about taking one class or signing up for a year...whatever people want to do.
