In our first cooking class of 2022, Mark & Tiffany Candelaria are joined in the kitchen by Chef Giangi Townsend of Giangi’s Kitchen, a top-rated food and recipe blog and participant on The Food Network’s Guy’s Grocery Games. We are so lucky to have Giangi both as a podcast guest last November and now as a guest chef on our Candelaria cooking class!! Click the video below to watch our cooking class with Giangi on YouTube and further down you’ll find the recipe link for the classic French dish, Coquilles Saint Jacques Giangi teaches us to make. Enjoy!

“Coquilles Saint Jacques is the French word for scallops. It always held a bit of mystery to me and it took a try to make it and quite the opposite happened: Super easy to make. Nothing more delightful than tender scallops, or bay scallops, nestled in a bed of mushrooms, cream, and wine topped with bubbly cheese under the broiler. The individual gratin dish makes for a dramatic table presentation.” - Giangi
