Foolproof Beef Tenderloin

At $18 a pound, beef tenderloin, the roast version of filet mignon, is an extravagance you can’t afford to cook improperly. As with all beef roasts, this cut responds best to low-temperature roasting. But there are some unique issues that confront the cook when preparing beef tenderloin. Tenderloin is the leanest roast on the animal (it’s also the most tender). Therefor, it needs some special treatment. Beef tenderloin is more prone to drying out than fattier roasts and it’s also thinner than most beef roasts. This course will teach you to bring the best out of this delicious beef roast. To dress up this roast, we slather it with a compound butter flavored with shallot, garlic, and parsley. You can vary the flavors in the compound butter, adding blue cheese, chipotle chiles, other herbs, or grated citrus zest.

Hearty Grains

Grains are no longer the obligatory side dish that’s pushed around on the plate. More and more people are taking notice of the many grains available to us in our markets, and doing so as more recipes and restaurants highlight grains rather than relegate them to the side. In this online cooking class, learn to transform humble barley into a satisfying butternut squash risotto, make authentic tabbouleh with couscous, and discover that quinoa is as easy to pronounce as it is to cook—and delicious to boot. We’ll teach you different methods for cooking grains, like the absorption, pilaf, and pasta methods, and show you any grain can be cooked on the stovetop and in the pressure cooker. Learn what equipment to have on hand to turn any pantry staple grain into a meal, and what common mistakes to avoid so you can ensure success every time.

Vegan Dinners

Eating vegan is no longer the polarizing concept it once was, and more and more people are interested in incorporating more vegan meals into their repertoire. But there are still a lot of misconceptions surrounding the vegan diet—that it’s limiting; that it’s expensive and requires its adherents to purchase a slew of specialty (and often processed) ingredients, like vegan cheese; that it’s all raw vegetables and bland tofu; the list goes on. Don’t let those myths deter you! In this course, you will learn how to work with common vegan ingredients, such as tofu, but also how to utilize ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen. We rely on flavor boosters such as soy sauce and dried mushrooms to add umami flavor to many of our vegan dishes. You will also learn how to make a hearty vegetable broth base to keep on hand for any vegan and vegetarian dishes. We've also found that store-bought vegan cheeses taste overly processed and grainy, so we'll show how to make your own vegan parmesan and cashew ricotta. Cooking vegan challenged us to rethink the way we look at mealtime, reinventing rather than replicating dishes. However, we were able to create some of our most interesting and unique recipes to date—like Baja-Style Cauliflower Tacos, which feature crispy coconut-coated cauliflower paired with spicy mango slaw and cilantro cream. In our Vegan Mushroom Bolognese, porcini mushrooms mimic the savory flavor and hearty texture of ground beef. For our Black Bean Burgers, the liquid in a can of black beans binds the burgers together, which means they have more bean flavor and you won't have to use an egg substitute.
