Buffet
breakfast, lunch or dinner with at least one live cooking station has become
very common with most restaurants, these days. A live cooking station enhances
our dining experience. We can enjoy - witnessing an expert chef preparing our
choice and have it attractively plated fresh and hot or cold! Commonly found
live Omelet and Dosa stations have expanded to innumerable types of live
stations like Pizza and Pasta station, Wok and Stir Fry station, Tandoor and
Tikka station, Chinese corner, Chat bhandar, Chocolate fountain, Ice Cream Cold
station, Pan Stall and so on. Such live stations are an attraction at
restaurants and parties with very small gatherings. But at very large
gatherings this is an inefficient and futile arrangement, crowding, queuing and
waiting at these live stations is very irritating.
Among
many exciting varieties of live cooking stations, one that would stand out as
an extraordinary entertainer is Flambé cooking or Flambéing. Flambé is a French
word, meaning flaming, that is igniting foods for a dramatic effect and to
develop a rich flavour. Several extravagant Flambé foods are made using fruits,
salads, meats, desserts and drinks. There are many Flambé dishes which are easy
enough to make at home and impress your family and guests. You can see one such
dish “Banana Flambé” being made by us at our house. The first video at the top
of this article shows the Flambéing process and the second one is a detailed
video on the entire cooking process of “Banana Flambé”. I hope you will find
the videos interesting.
Warning:
Flambéing is a very dangerous cooking process involving a lot of serious risks.
