I love this trick!

Tip from a three star Michelin chef: prepare the chicken in advance and let it cool overnight in the stock in the refrigerator. The chicken will be very tender and all the fat will be solidified on top. You have to use a good quality chicken for this. If you should use an ‘industrial’ chicken, you’ll end up with chicken puree instead of chicken cubes. In France, I’ll use a Label Rouge chicken because they are at least 81 days old ( industrial chicken: 6 weeks). Always take the heaviest chicken on offer.

I know that this is an old comment, but would a stewing hen work? They're at least six months old when we eat them.

This was the exact dish I had when we visited a French restaurant for a French class project during the seventies ... it was delicious!

There's so much effort and time put into these videos! Thanks for this wonderful resource.

I've just found you on the internet because I wanted to make my own vol u vent. I'm hooked. Great presentation. Merci

Love your videos, man...Thanks a lot for all of them. Greetings from Colombia!

I'm delighted to have discovered this channel now in Oct. '21. It's always rewarding to find a good teacher amidst the "jungle." Best wishes!

Absolutely stunning!

Merci, j’avais goûté ce plat en Alsace, j’ai adoré. C’est absolument génial de pouvoir faire ça à la maison. Merci!

My favorites !😊

Wow. Speechless. This dish looks incredible

OMG I was able to make this the Vol au vent turned out nice, but I think I'm going to make them larger next time...and I used a leak instead of an onion...It was so good...everyone loved it as well...thank you.

This is one hell of a dish!!! Amazing!!!

Love your recipes....have always enjoyed making these from scratch...Will save this one..This is also the basic chicken cook for my Coronation chicken... a family favourite here with my friends and family ! Thank you x

Very BEAUTIFULLY edited !! Nice job. I love how you did your visual introduction with little short 'clips' of which ingredients you put together. To me / for me that makes a much more powerful start to your video. It helps to connect-the-dots. Thank you once again for sharing your amazing skill with all of us.

Living in Alsace north france. This is a staple. Love it

Thank you, thank you, thank you, Stephane! In the 1980s, in Beverly Hills, there was a wonderful patisserie called Michel Richard, named after the chef. Along with the delicious pastries, they served some savory brunch/lunch dishes. My favorite was a dish they called the Chicken Feuillete. It was basically this dish, but with a lot more chicken and mushrooms, sandwiched between two squares of puff pastry. Instead of being seasoned with parsley, they used tarragon, which I LOVE! The restaurant has been gone a long time, but thanks to you, I can make Chicken Feuillete myself!

Un grand merci chef.

Excellent! Looking forward to making this delightful meal.

Never thought about using a paper towel to remove fat like that, great tip.

It is cooking basics, actually... ;-))) You can use even the fresh chicken egg white to collect all the excess fat and small particles to purify your chicken stock to the high quality top-restaurant level. Just put the fresh egg white (without yolk!) in to your stock (bullion) in last phase of preparation. The protein in the egg white will collect all the fat and particles from the stock. Just separate the stock after it, and throw away the white flakes, and "voilà" - you will have the most clean and purified stock in your life! ;-)))

I need to come over right now!!! Looks sooooo yummy!!!

Mmmmmmmmm....... That taste really goooood!! That taste sooooo delicious and creamy pastry!! Loooks good!! Great dish!! See you anytime!!

Stunning! I also add Brandy or cognac to the sauce. To me that’s classic♥️

I grew up in midwest US, and my mom and Gramma called this "Chicken a la' King." It's even in The Joy Of Cooking, a major American cookbook that's existed since the 30s or 40s. I had no idea (but I should have) my chcken a la king is just an American riff on a classic french dish! No wonder there's so much butter and it tastes so fancy!

PERFECT JOB, merci beaucoup!!!

I'm going to totally make this today ^_^ thank you!

Amazing chef! Thank you!

Jacques Pepin lives here in Madison, Connecticut . He and Gloria were the judges of a cooking contest back in the 80’s. He remembered me from his classes abd i won first place with baked salmon with mousse of scallops and a lobster burre blanc and fleurons. His nephew has or had a bistro in Branford, Ct. Gloria passed away about a year ago. Very sad

Thankyou! Great ideas and tips!🤗

Stefan you have gone back to your roots to teach us French cooking techniques with this video. I learnt so much. Good to have a series of videos that ‘build’ on each other to the final spectacular dish. This is similar to how Anna Olson does her recent baking series - first master the simple technique and get more sophisticated. Btw, I thought u can improve your videos by erm, improving the hair... it makes a lot of difference :P

Flavor tip: Take all the meat off the whole cooled chicken after cooking. Return the carcass and skin to the stock and simmer further, an hour or two. This gets all the goodness out of the chicken and the stock is much more flavorful and concentrated. Takes more time but as long as you're making your own stock anyway it's worth it.

Fit for kings but named for the queen-appropriate somehow. I have had a similar dish, in Provence, that had diced mushrooms and chives in a mushroom sauce which was, of course, flooded not daintily spooned on top. Your recipe is superior unless only morrels are used in the mushroom variety. I love the way we are proceeding through Escoffier.

Just made this yesterday! A traditional dish in Belgium. I do my chicken in my preasure cooker. A bit quicker then poaching it.and why would you only use the chicken breast. We use the whole chicken and also add 500 grams of white button mushrooms to the chicken meat and you can even add some small meatballs. You need to heat the boucher in the oven, not in a microwave.its the contrast of the crips puff pastry boucher againt the velvety saus and the soft meat that makes it so delicious.

First time I had Bouchée à la Reine it was made with brains.....

one of my favorite dishes since my childhood. My version: lemon juice instead of cognac, aspargus instead of morille...and tagliatelle as a side dish... this is how it is served in alsace

Oh! Mini Chicken Pot Pie!

This is also a staple recipe in belgium. I make it close to this, but i usually like to hand shred the leg meat and drop it in along the cubed breast meat, this makes so your sauce is more loaded with meat.

Was this dish created for Marie Leczinska, La Reine de France? I was told that it was. The first time I ever heard of this dish was from the film Les Adieux a La Reine! Can’t wait to make it!

Nice job Stefan! Even some times mak3 mistakes at cooking terminology. Question what do you know about salpicon?

Your accent 😍

Do you have to wait to add the cream until later in the process or can you add the consumee to a bechamel instead of just the roux?

Could you say what other dish can we use for the Bouchée a La Reine filling aside from filling pastry?

💕

Refined biscuits and gravy

Bouchée à la reine: 4 large one ( puff pastry casings) Puff Pastry: 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour 280g 1 Tablespoon granulated sugar 1 teaspoon salt 1 cup cold butter 226g 7 to 8 Tablespoons ice water Bake 400 F for 30 minutes for six inch pastry. Vol ah vent molds use puff pastry silicon casing or baking sheet cup cake mold. For the boiled chicken: 1 chicken ( approx 1.2 kilos) 100 grams of chopped leeks 100 grams of chopped onions 100 grams of chopped celery 100 grams of chopped carrots 1 large bouquet garni ( made with thym, bay leave celery and parsley stokes) 1 teaspoon of black peppercorn 1 teaspoon of juniper berries 1 table spoon of salt half a lemon juice For the veloute sauce ( parisian sauce): 1 litre of chicken broth 40 grams of plain flour 40 grams of butter 250 grams of mushroom 150 grams of button mushrooms and 100 grams of morels) 2 chicken breasts diced. ( reserve some chicken meat to for serving) 1 egg yolks up to 200 ml of cream ( heavy whipping creme or creme fraiche) 1 table spoon of cognac 1 table spoon of chopped parsley. salt and pepper to season.

Will it work the same to make it with a croissant

were do you get the pastry??

Do you have a cooking recipe book ? I love your videos, but I would like to have it in paper for later cooking.

How can I make the pastry?

really nice recipe , my mum used to put lamb or veal sweetbreads ? as well as the other ingredients but no morilles ! too expensive then !also there were Boulangeries / Patisseries ,that would sell ready made perfect sauce " a la Reine "one day a week , so occasionally my Mum would buy 2 litter ,of the ready made sauce , and take all the praises !! Shame !!! but I would have done the same !!especially if we had " posh " customers , I'm reminiscing the 60's in Geneva ! sorry , keep on the good work ,nice video , not bad looking either , he he !!

I make chicken soup this way with the sddition of leeks and potatoes but i use either an Empire or Bell and Evans chicken and let it simmer for an hour after it comes to a boil and i skim the top protein off.. when its done i add just enough salt to taste and remove the chicken and the bobes and add the chicken and veggies to the bowl wuth the stock. Then i top with shreeded Guyure and voila

You are a gem. Merci from America.

Hi Stephane!! I was just curious, if you have the time to answer; what is the reason for putting 3 plain cubes of chicken on the bottom before pouring in the sauce that already has cubes of chicken in it? Is it to prevent the bottom of the pastry from getting soggy too quickly?

@FrenchCookingAcademy

5 жыл бұрын

kind of yes and because sometimes you just more sauce going in then actual meat. in my case the size of the vol aux cent were very small that’s why i did that but for larger size just pouring in the mix is fine too 🙂
