I’m a little excited and the reason why Maddie was here is because we both had our nose in these claps we’re going to take you on a culinary journey to France with three delicious dishes you can make at home and this is all inspired by his recent trip across the Atlantic to
France please welcome Chef Matt Dean pet thank you Chef Matt Dean pte will in today’s kitchen we’ll go by petite yeah because we are being very French today you have a beret on I have a beret this this is from France it this is officially it is proper it looks good on
You man does it really I like it does it bring up my eyes it does thank you you know what there there it’s so funny so I was in Paris nine days um you know I love France I’ve done the whole country north and south and you just
Take a love of seeing the energy the food the passion you know the history uh look at those pics look at the guy there he is there’s the kid and right off the right off the top of the show we were talking about dining al fresco this is
What I think when I think of Paris all the Beast Ros you sit at all the outdoor dining all the the whole culture of it um but you brought back the food I did I brought back the food from sitting in those places eating and everything that
Like you said so you know three really great Staples again if if not everybody gets a chance to jump over the border and take a 7h hour flight you know we can do this right at home right just make it in your kitchen make it in your
Kitchen and it it is fun food it is classic it is Rich I will say you know this will put on the uh you’ll want to have a nap after some of this so starting with one of my favorites you know that beautiful soup french onion
Soup french onion soup now look at that always a winner always a winner but fun fact when you ask the server can I please have the French Ian soup especially in Baris uh they will look at you and say sir it is just onion soup no
They will say no no they go like this you know what I all jokes aside uh it’s amazing someone friends gets a bad rap uh certainly Paris of of people with that you know just not want attitude it’s it’s certainly changed it’s it’s really welcoming and hospitable right
Now uh which is great so to make french onion soup at home again beautiful onions you can do you know Videl onions white onions whatever you’d like um butter into the pan you want to roast those onions down you thr braid um cook those onions down you want to sweat them
Salt pepper salt always is needed to let them sweat down you want to caramelize those onions throw it on a low heat I want to always have beef stock you can make this into a veggie option and a little veggie place so you can the beef
For veg and now you’ve got that um either bay leaf or Rosemary you can take these out of course but essentially what you want to do is you want to cook that down stew it down you get that beautiful richness some people add uh cognac some
People add a little bit of fancy yeah a little depth so you know a little balsamic vinegar in some cases and then again you put in the broiler so on High um be careful cuz that things will burn and in your favorite bowls you can see we’ve put Brios always Brios French
Beautiful bread super buttery and then we’ve topped it with cheese and you just boil that off a little Cho chive and Away you go and what cheese do you like to use with your not French onion soup just just my onion soup thank you I’m a professional here the Beret says it all
Um you know what it uh I always use emel and if you can’t find emel you can do Grier and if you can’t find Grier we go Swiss okay good that’s lot got to be the melti of cheeses and I agree with putting it in this vessel I don’t know
What this thing’s called but we went and bought them because that just on B the okay the French onion the French onion bow okay we’re going to move right along to a sandwich that is super hot right now uh online because we want to pair the soup with the sandwich 100% what’s

You know what we just want to make a little I’m a you know me I like to make things easy and simple and food that everybody can do uh eggs are actually tough to do for people most people true um that’s true here we go so Brio Bread
We’ve made a bashal so Basham one of our first starting of our Master four sauces so uh butter flour and you’re just whisking that Browning that putting in if anybody’s made hollay this is where we start you know what I mean if you made a mouret you’re adding cheese but a
Little bit of butter uh milk over time and you’re making that into your sauce so this is where that little uzy goody goodness comes in so here we go um we’re going to double up let’s make let’s make a really it’s a pretty it is a saucy because that’s where like that richness
