Customer Review

"Thank you so much for the food, it was an absolute hit! You were spot on about the ratatouille lasagna, I think it went faster than the chicken florentine. Don’t get me wrong, everyone loved the chicken, but the lasagna was a surprise favorite. We definitely look forward to trying out other items on the menu!"

Food Dictionary-Braise

braise-A cooking method by which food (usually meat or vegetables) is first browned in fat, then cooked, tightly covered, in a small amount of liquid at low heat for a lengthy period of time. The long, slow cooking develops flavor and tenderizes foods by gently breaking down their fibers. Braising can be done on top of the range or in the oven. A tight-fitting lid is very important to prevent the liquid from evaporating.
