Event Details

When people tour NOCCA, their first response is usually, "I wish I could've gone to school here." Well, now they can – at least for one very special afternoon! Join NOCCA's outstanding Culinary Arts faculty for some hands-on work in NOCCA's new Emeril Lagasse Foundation Culinary Arts Studio.

October 22, 1:00pm – 5:00pm
"A Louisiana Holiday Feast" with Chef Frank Brigtsen
In NOCCA's Emeril Lagasse Foundation Culinary Arts Studio
 

Join one of New Orleans' best-known chefs in making a full holiday meal, full of fantastic flavors and traditional Louisiana ingredients. The menu includes: 

 

  • Oyster Chowder with Bacon and Fennel 
  • Andouille Calas with Green Onion Dressing 
  • Satsuma Salad with Feta, Spiced Pecans, Pickled Red Onion, and Cane Vinegar Dressing
  • Pan-Roasted Pork Tenderloin with Apple Cider Pan Gravy
  • Roasted Autumn Vegetables
  • Frank's Award-Winning Pecan Pie with Homemade Whipped Cream

You'll help Chef Frank make (and eat!) these dishes – and you'll leave with the recipes, too.
