In this week's Friday episode, Patrick and Stuart invite friends Tony and Jane ‪@notquiteachateaudiy‬ to the first dinner being prepared in the chateau kitchen on their new stove/cooker (piano). Patrick shows how he makes coq au vin d'Alsace (chicken in white wine sauce).
Join Patrick and Stuart on their journey to find a neglected, forgotten, or crumbling château or castle in France, and then continue to follow them as they work on its restoration, rénovation, decoration, and furnishing. Along the way, they will also create and share videos on their preparation for having gîtes for guests, and an event venue in their chateau (wedding, birthday, anniversary, organization or club meetings, retreats, etc.).

Patrick, you are such a good cook and I love watching you make these recipes because you are a very neat cook and the ingredients are always fresh. You also tell us many interesting things while you cook. Stuart, I’m sure the dessert was courtesy of you and your red currants from the garden. Those peonies are spectacular and the plums are gorgeous, and you even mentioned me in this video. Thank you for that!! One of these months I will travel to France to meet you both in person. Love and hugs and many happy meals in your beautiful new kitchen!!! ❤️

Patrick, I've been asking hundreds of French Grandmother types their families secrets for cooking...most said when you start with butter add a half teaspoon of olive oil to keep the butter from burning and to add the tiniest flavor to a dish and it's good for the heart...another secret for certain recipes was a tiny bit of Moutarde de Dijon for dishes such as Blanquette, Coq au Vin, Boeuf Bourguignon....

@kevinjewell233 11 ай бұрын

What foods is Stuart craving here...I've gone for the most insane foods...sweet tarts, sugar babies, starburst, white wedding cake, angel food cake....oddly not always the stuff I loved in America but simply those I couldn't find here or in London...

@JourneytotheChateau 11 ай бұрын

Hi Kevin! Oh yes. There are a few, and I have brought them back with me when I visited my parents in the states. My favorite peanut butter is Natural Creamy JIF, and they only have Skippy here 🙄. Also I have brought back some boxed Mac and Cheese dinners. I was raised on processed foods, so I do occasionally miss them. 🤣 Candy is not really a problem, because they carry most of the same things, and they DO have better chocolate here. We have had to get brown sugar shipped to us, since they don't really have anything like that here for baking. If I want a specific type of cake, I will just bake one. 😍

@@JourneytotheChateau If you have molasses (treacle) there and white (granulated) sugar, you can make your own brown sugar: Light brown-1 cup white sugar/ 2 tsps. Molasses Dark brown- 1 cup white sugar/ 1 Tbsp. Molasses Put in a food processor bowl or blender together and whirl till incorporated and uniform in color.

Homemade broth is so much better than store-bought. I usually have several containers in the freezer. It's a comfort.

@crinkle2649 11 ай бұрын

Patrick, don't use the cutting side of the knife to scrape the stoff off of the cutting board, use the other side. You will dull the blade.

@daisylovelock9553 11 ай бұрын

Also crinkle, a tip I had about holding the knife was to use one's index finger and thumb at the helm of the knife where it meets the handle and then the rest of one's hand clasped around the handle, giving great control and better chopping skills. This enables the blade to stay sharper longer as it rocks the blade. Hope you haven't gone to sleep reading this😅😂

@JourneytotheChateau 11 ай бұрын

That is interesting. We had someone in a previous cooking vlog where Patrick held it the way you described and they said it was "improper". People should just use a knife in whatever way that is comfortable and safe and gets the job done. Everyone needs to remember that some people may have physical issues with their wrists or fingers, so they have to do what they can to make the tools work for them. Thanks!

Sorry Crinkle, I was unable to use my hands for 5 years, and needed braces, so this is the tip I was given. It was just a tip for knife use and blade care an added bonus of use,not a prescription. I imagine I'm older than you. Keep safe.

That way I don’t have to worry about the cooking time for the breasts. Since I now rent and no longer have my gas stove, I cook mine slowly in my lousy electric stove! Great idea for an appetizer. Will steal that. And that dessert ! Do tell! Did you make it Stewart? We definitely want a baking demonstration of that please!

Oh wow! It's great to see that glorious stove in action, Patrick! I'm with you on making your own stock, I do my own vegetable stock all the time, I keep all of my veg scraps, (clean of course!) and when I have a good stash in my freezer, I pop them into my biggest pot and just let them simmer away very slowly for a few hours. I always pop a few herbs into the mix too, just gives the stock an extra bit of body, and a bit of salt. I don't put pepper in the stock when it's brewing, only when I use it for a dish. Once it's cooked down, it's strained off, and popped into 1 and 2-litre containers and into the freezer. Instant winter soups and stews base! That coq au vin looks so good! I wish I was there too! Lovely to see Tony and Jane, I'll bet they enjoyed that meal. Who made that gorgeous dessert??? Big hugs xxx

The best dinners, I find, are those that are prepared in advance so the chef can enjoy the guests too. I love watching you two, you have a genuine warmth. Take care xx

Dear Helene. What a completely wonderful comment. Thank you so much. It was delightful to read your impressions. The desert was melting exactly like you envisioned. We love to spend time with Tony and Jane. They are wonderful. The cooker is absolutely amazing and all we wanted. Sending you love and hugs from a rainy Colombe. We needed the rain though. 😊❤😊

Patrick, you may not be a qualified chef but you are an accomplished cook and Stuart is a great dessert maker. I enjoy your cooking videos and look forward to staying with you both and enjoying your meals one day. Just one thought, I hope you sealed the stone fireplace surround. It will absorb the cooking smells and splashes from the stove otherwise. A bientot my friends! 👏🏻🥰🥰

Hello my dear Jennifer. You are very kind. Thank you so much. ❤ The stone was sealed but I think you are right, we should reseal it. Great tip. Looking forward to welcoming you at the château. 😊❤😊. Hugs and best wishes from us at Colombe. 😘💕😘

so much fun to watch you enjoy your new cooker and some sneak peeks of your wonderful kitchen. I think that rustic beams from wood found in your chateau over the doorways would add a warm homey touch. Lovely meal and aways great to see Jane and Tony

Oh to be able to have dinner with the two of you. But alas, I live in Delaware USA and I am not able to afford the trip. I hope you get so many “reservations” that could go into next year and beyond.

Hi Pam. Thank you. That is what we wanted, elegant but simple. It is frustrating to be prevented to grow plants because of the wrong climate. For me, that is true for Sweet Peas. First year in 24 years that I have the blooming. YAY. 👍🏻😘👍🏻. Hugs from Colombe ❤
