Party while you cook!!


Good Morning!!  A couple of weeks ago I had my monthly “Rendezvous”, it is a time when I invite everyone and anyone to my home to see and share new ideas about cooking. Of course, the Demarle products take center stage, but the focus is more on how to make cooking fun and easier! We have novice to experienced cooks and it is great to see everyone sharing ideas, eating food and having fun.


We had a salt tasting, it was interesting that each salt made the food taste different!


Bolivian Rose Sea Salt

The new Mediteranean Balsamic Vinegar, yum!!
Home made Caramel Sauce, oh so delicious!!!

Home made French bread

Dipping oil for bread and veggies

We had some of the Chicken Angeline out of the new cookbook, artichoke hearts and mushrooms with a white wine sauce. VERY good!!

 I love the experience of cooking food, especially with other people. I think that it is an experience, and like food, something to savor and enjoy. My last couple of “Rendezvous” have been very enjoyable for me and many of the guests commented that they had "so much fun, I wish I would have come sooner". Yeah!! That is what I want to do, help people to learn, or remind them, that cooking is meant to be savored and enjoyed!!
 If you live in the area please be sure to stop by one of these months and join us! It is great to exchange ideas, recipes, and experiences. I ALWAYS learn something new and I have met some great new friends (and old ones too). Cooking is something that is meant to be enjoyed, not just a “necessary evil”. I truly believe that EVERYONE can enjoy cooking!
If you still aren’t too sure about that, then please contact me and I would love to help you on your journey to LOVING cooking!!!
This is from December, the Honey Oat bread on the right was Yummy!!
