Welcome
ecently, a couple of our staff members attended a cooking class offered by another
organization that shall remain unnamed. The goal was to see and assess how a competitor was performing—and it was quite enlightening. The focus of the class was clear
from the start—they were there to sell product. Recipes were not provided for students to follow
along, but given at the end. Techniques were minimal, and the instructor was not clear as to
how or where ingredients had been procured nor how
the mise en place had been assembled. Friends and
family members wandered in and out to get fed. Fairly
unprofessional, yet not at all inexpensive.
Trust me, we are very happy to sell product as a
result of a class, and there is no doubt that the Cooking
School exists within Draeger’s to support and augment
all the facets of our business. But one thing is abundantly
clear: We want to teach cooking fundamentals, and we
want to give our students the confidence to enjoy their
time in the kitchen and cook good food for themselves
and their family.
A kitchen towel that was given to me offers this advice—Mangia Bene, Ridi Spesso, Ama Molto. It translates
to Eat Well, Laugh Often, Love Much. We wish nothing
more for our students.

students the
confidence to

Directions
Makes about 28 cookies
Ingredients
2/3 cup (134 grams) sugar
2/3 cup (80 grams) walnuts
(whole or pieces)
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
Pinch of ground cinnamon (optional)
A little freshly grated lemon
zest (optional)
1 ¼ cups (170 grams) all-purpose flour
1 stick (8 tablespoons; 4 ounces;
113 grams) cold unsalted
butter, cut into small pieces
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Confectioners’ sugar, for dusting
Thick jam, such as raspberry,
strawberry, cherry or apricot
Little Rascals
When I discovered that the German name for these cookies,
which I grew up with, translated as “Little Rascals,” it made me
love them even more. Not that their proper name, Spitzbuben,
didn’t also sound comical to my American ears, but Little
Rascals was irresistible. Happily, the cookie is as irresistible
as its name. Essentially jam-filled sandwich cookies, these are
made with walnuts and very little flavoring: a pinch of cinnamon, if you’d like; a scrape of lemon zest, if that’s your fancy.
Mostly the flavor is butter, sugar and nuts. The texture is best
described as crumbly and a little gritty (in the best way). Half
the cookies, which are always made small and often made for
Christmas, are baked whole and the other half are given peeka-boo cutouts. When the cookies are cool, they’re sandwiched
with a tiny bit of jam that pushes up alluringly through the
cutout. They seem a lot like linzer cookies’ simpler cousins,
don’t they? And wouldn’t they be great for Valentine’s Day if
you used heart-shaped cutters?
A word on the jam filling: If you’d like, you can bring the jam
to a boil (I do this in the microwave), let it cool and then spoon
it onto the cookies—boiling will thicken the jam and make it less
sticky. But using jam straight from the jar is fine too.
Put the sugar, walnuts, salt, and
cinnamon and zest, if you’re
using them, in a food processor and pulse until the nuts are
ground. It’s better to have a few
discernible pieces of nuts than
nut butter, so keep an eye on the
mix as you go. Add the flour and
process to incorporate. Scatter over the pieces of butter and
pulse until the mixture forms
crumbs and resembles streusel.
Add the egg a little at a time,
pulsing after each bit goes in.
Pulse a few more times, until you
have a soft dough.
Scrape the dough out onto a
work surface, divide it in half
and shape each into a disk.
Working with one piece of
dough at a time, roll the dough
¼ inch thick between sheets of
parchment. Slide the dough, still
sandwiched between the paper,
onto a baking sheet—you can
stack the slabs—and freeze for at
least 1 hour; longer is better. This
dough remains soft even when
frozen, so it’s best to get it as
cold as you can before cutting it.
When you’re ready to bake,
center a rack in the oven and
preheat it to 350 degrees F.
Line two baking sheets with
parchment paper or silicone
baking mats. Have two
cookie cutters at the ready:
one 1½ inches in diameter
and the other a little less
than 1 inch (the cutters can
be plain or scallop-edged).
Pull out one piece of dough;
keep the other in the freezer.
Peel away both sheets of
parchment and return the dough
to one sheet. Working quickly,
cut out as many 1½-inch rounds
as you can, placing them on the
baking sheet a scant 2 inches
apart. Use the smaller cutter to
remove the centers of half of
the cookies. If the dough breaks
while you’re cutting out the
centers, patch it; if the dough is
really soft and you’re not having
fun cutting it, slide the baking
sheet into the freezer and give
it a 10-minute chill. Reserve
the scraps, then combine the
scraps from the second piece
of dough, shape into a disk,
roll, freeze, cut and bake.
Bake the cookies for 14 to 16
minutes, rotating the sheet after
10 minutes, or until pale golden
brown. Transfer the baking
sheet to a rack and allow the
cookies to cool completely.
Repeat with the remaining
dough, always using a
cool baking sheet.
To finish the cookies, dust
the cut-out cookies with
confectioners’ sugar. Turn the
whole cookies over, bottoms up,
and place about ½ teaspoon of
jam in the center of each one.
Top with the cut-out cookies,
pressing down lightly to push
the jam toward the edges.
Storing
Wrapped airtight, the dough can
be frozen for up to 2 months;
cut and bake directly from the
freezer, adding another minute
or two to the baking time if
needed. Covered, the cookies
will be fine at room temperature
for up to 2 days. They’ll get a
little softer because of the jam,
but they’ll still be nice.

By Abigail Crayne
The
arrival of fall and the holiday
season heralds many
opportunities for enjoying and exploring
the world of Champagne and sparkling
wine. Although always an excellent choice
for year-round enjoyment, sparkling
wine adds an extra-festive touch and a
truly special note to your celebration or
gathering. As a general rule, only sparkling
wine from the Champagne region of
France, produced by following traditional
methods, can be labeled as Champagne.
Any other origin will have a different
name, such as Cremant, Cava, Prosecco or
sparkling wine, to name a few.
One particular niche within the Champagne category is that of single estate or
grower Champagnes. These are produced
by the family or farmer of the estate
on which the grapes were grown. With
increased interest in knowing about where
our food comes from, this same approach
can be extended to your Champagne
experience. Grower Champagnes display
unique characteristics from each producer,
exemplifying the terroir (climate and soil)
and the decisions of the winemaker to create a distinctive house style. These differ
from big-name brand Champagnes that are
likely blended from grapes purchased from
many sources within the Champagne region. This approach achieves a consistent,
brand-driven product every year—and not
the expression of a place and winemaker
you will find when enjoying a grower
Champagne.
Grower Champagnes will not have
instantly recognizable names and labels,
but the trade-up is that instead of a big
marketing campaign to support, they
offer an exceptional quality-to-price ratio.
Selection at each Draeger’s Wine Department will vary, with the San Mateo
location particularly focusing on grower
Champagnes. These bottles can often be
identified by the initials RM (RecoltantManipulant) on the wine label, and they
are grouped together for your convenience. Excellent choices are available, so
ask our knowledgeable Wine Department
staff for suggestions. Try something new,
and enjoy with your friends and family
over the holidays and beyond!
Ingredients
4 ounces unsalted butter
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 tablespoon flat-leaf parsley, minced
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
3 tablespoons grapeseed oil
1 cup popcorn kernels
Truffle salt or kosher salt to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
Directions
In a small saucepan, melt butter over
low heat with the thyme, parsley and
garlic and set aside to infuse.
Pair it with Food
Because of their minerality and
acidity, dry (brut) Champagnes and
sparkling wines pair well with many
foods without overpowering the flavors
of the dish. Excellent Champagne
pairings include appetizers, seafood,
fried foods and salty items, as well as
heartier fare like duck, pork and many
cheeses, including Brie, Brillat-Savarin,
Camembert, Gorgonzola dolce and
Parmigiano-Reggiano.
Truffle
and Herb
Popcorn
Serves 4
Heat a large, lidded pot over mediumhigh heat and add the grapeseed oil. Add
popcorn kernels, place the lid securely atop
and shake from side to side briefly to coat
the kernels with oil. Once corn begins
to pop, shake pot frequently, carefully
avoiding touching steam and the hot pot.
Continue until popping slows to about
5-second intervals. Remove from heat
and carefully pour into a large bowl.
Remove garlic from butter and discard.
Drizzle the butter over the popcorn,
lightly stirring to mix and coat evenly.
Season with truffle salt and pepper
to taste. Serve immediately.

Gougeres
(French
Cheese Puffs)
Makes 2 dozen
Ingredients
¾ cup whole milk
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Pinch of kosher salt
Pinch of finely ground black pepper
Pinch of freshly ground nutmeg
¾ cup bread flour
3 large eggs
3 ounces grated Gruyere cheese
1 tablespoon minced chives
1 egg plus 1 teaspoon water, whisked
together for egg wash
Directions
Preheat oven to 400 F. Set the oven rack
in the center position. In a heavy bottom
saucepan, combine milk, butter and
seasonings. Bring to a boil and simmer
until butter has melted. Remove pan from
the heat. Pour in all the flour at once
and stir vigorously with a spoon until
well incorporated. Return pan to the
burner over medium heat and stir with
the spoon until the mixture pulls away
from the sides of the pan and the spoon,
approximately 1 to 2 minutes; a thin film
of the dough will stick to the bottom
of the pan. Remove from the heat.
Pour dough into the bowl of an electric
mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
Beat dough on medium-high until it
has cooled to room temperature. Crack
the eggs into a small bowl, then with
the machine running, add eggs, one at a
time, making sure each egg is completely
incorporated into the dough and the dough
is smooth. Add the cheese and chives and
continue beating until well combined.
Line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
Using a pastry bag with a ½-inch tip, fill the
bag and pipe out the dough into mounds
about 2 inches in diameter, at least 2 inches
apart. Brush tops lightly with egg wash. Bake
Facts and
Figures
There are over 19,000 independent
growers in the Champagne region,
accounting for nearly 88 percent of all
sheet pan in the middle of the oven until
gougeres have doubled in size and are golden
brown, approximately 30 to 35 minutes.
Remove from the oven and make a small
slit in the side of each puff to allow steam to
escape. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Around 5,000 of these growers produce
wine from their own grapes.
Only about 5 percent of the Champagne
imported into the U.S. is grower
Champagne.

group prepares a portion of the menu.
Please wear closed-toe shoes. We provide
printed recipes, aprons, knives and all
other necessary equipment for in-class
use. Enjoy generous tastes of each menu
item. Duration is typically 2½–3 hours.

printed recipes, ask questions and get a
generous taste of each menu item. Duration is typically 2–2½ hours.
Doors open 30 minutes prior to the start
of class, and seating is on a first-come,
first-served basis. The classroom is air
conditioned, and temperature may vary
