We were an eclectic group. There were former Wall Street traders, real estate professionals and U.S. servicemen back from tours in Iraq. But after [...]]]></description>

This morning, I made seared rack of lamb with homemade pasta tossed with mint pesto and roasted tomatoes in exactly 90 minutes and without a single recipe in sight. I served [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ll be the first one to admit it. I’ve never met a dessert I didn’t like. From cream puffs and crepes to marshmallows and macaroons, if there’s sugar in it, I’ll eat it. I can’t help but realize what an eye-opening experience the last 20 lessons have been to the world of both sweet and [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[If I’ve learned one thing so far about pastry and baking, it’s patience. I have to admit that I was anxiously awaiting the start to Module 4, which is the pastry and baking portion of ICE’s Culinary Career Program. Don’t get me wrong, I love to cook, but my love affair with food actually began [...]]]></description>

Our palettes travelled from Brittany and Normandy to Alsace and Lorraine, making stops to taste Souffles d’Alencon en Timbales, Tarte Flambée and Cassoulet. With Chef Mike’s instruction we worked our way through the classic preparation [...]]]></description>

Then seven sautéed yellow beans find their place parallel to the potato wedge while a scattering of bright green buttered peas are set across the beans like a bridge. I place two sautéed tournedos of beef in the bottom [...]]]></description>

Apparently altitude – as in 10,000-feet-plus altitude &#8211; affects cooking times and I’m lucky we had the meal I prepared for (a very late) dinner, instead [...]]]></description>

That way, by Module 5, we’ll be outfitted in just a white sheet with a piece of string; an ICE toga of sorts. While the amount of physical labor involved in the program [...]]]></description>
