New Orleans Roux Class

Learn the best-kept secrets for authentic New Orleans cooking!

First, we make a Roux! You will learn the best-kept secrets for authentic New Orleans cooking in this class. We begin by discovering the importance of the Cajun Holy Trinity, and start cutting and prepping to make the best New Orleans cuisine you’ve ever tasted.

Once the Cajun Holy Trinity is all chopped, we will take a break and get our first glass of wine. Mise en place (everything in its place), we start the Dark Roux for the gumbo. After the gumbo, we start the light Roux for the Shrimp Etouffee.

After properly plating your meal, it’s time to dine.

The last part of the class, (and possibly your favorite) will include teaching you how to make Bananas Foster. Yum! We’ll show you a fool-proof way to make this dessert that is sure to impress your friends and family.

Indulge in these historical staple dishes:

  • Chicken and Andouille Sausage Gumbo
  • Shrimp Etouffee
  • Bananas’ Foster

Wine, beer, sodas, tea, and water are included with your class. Classes are available every day at 10:00 am 2:00 pm or 6:00 pm. The minimum class is 2 people with a maximum of 10 people

  • Children over 10 are allowed to book but they must be willing to participate and more importantly love to cook!
