Garde Manger

Garde Manger is my favorite station by far. I think I like it so much because there is a lot more creative freedom compared to any other station.
It also has less of a hectic pace - at least in our school's kitchen.
Tonight we made Escargot a La Bourgignonne, a long term favorite of mine.
Of course stockmaking is one of our responsibilities too.

Funny thing making stocks. In the beginning I regarded it as a necessary evil. Now I actually enjoy the process and analyzing the little nuances that make one stock taste better than the other.
