Day 11 - Hors D'oeuvres and Canapés

Tonight we started work on Hors D'oeuvres and Canapés. We made Pate Dough for Barquettes and Tartelettes. We made Gougeres, Puff Pastry and some lovely Smoked Salmon Mousse. I'm gonna tell ya right now, I'll never understand why anyone would want to make a mousse out of a fish - it really is a taste only a bear would love!

A composed Hors D'ouevere consists of four elements - Base, Spread, Filling and Garnish.

We made the base tonight - tomorrow we make the spread and filling. And we garnish on Wednesday.
