Tal Ronnen “The Conscious Cook” Le Cordon Bleu Cooking Lessons

Written by Vegetarian Star on January 13th, 2010 in Chefs, Food & Drink.

The Conscious Cook author Tal Ronnen visited Chicago recently to chat with Oprah and demonstrate vegetarian cooking to students at Le Cordon Bleu culinary school.

If any chef who came out of Tal’s class claims to be clueless about vegetarian food, you know they were playing hooky!

Ronnen lead the group through making three recipes: tortellini with an artichoke-“ricotta” filling and saffron cream sauce; celery root soup with Granny Smith apples; and Gardein “chicken” scaloppini with shiitake-sake sauce.

He touted the goodness of faux meat products by Gardein, which he says have the texture of the muscle fibers of real meat.  Ronnen also explained how to make your own cashew milk.

And in case you didn’t already know, all the important names in Cali eat veg.

“Every celebrity under the sun is a vegetarian,” he said of LA.

Sweet.

Now every ordinary person in Minnesota, Louisiana and that town with only 30 people and four streets can learn to cook like a star.
