Making its debut on QVC last week, The Beverly Hills Kitchen is the well known secret of A-listers who’ve given up their private chefs for more recession-friendly fare.
Created by chef and legendary party host Alex Hitz, The Beverly Hills Kitchen is a new line of prepared gourmet food for at-home dining. First up on the menu: the Autumn Classic Comfort dish Beef Bourguignon. “It’s like having a personal chef right in your own freezer,” says Hitz.
Mr. Hitz' s life-long passion for cooking and hosting elaborate parties for his famous friends, inspired him to start a chef-prepared food line that combines restaurant-quality cuisine with the ease and intimacy of at-home dining. For busy professionals and families who love fine dining, but lack the time or skills to cook delicious, classic dinners such as beef bourguignon, The Beverly Hills Kitchen's entrees are designed for convenience frozen and ready in ten minutes.
The Beverly Hills Kitchen's Beef Bourguignon includes five 8oz. portions of prime tender meat, simmered for four hours in a full-bodied red wine sauce with carrots, mushrooms, tomatoes, garlic, shallots, basil and Dijon mustard. Paired with rice, pasta, potatoes, a simple salad, or just on its own, this classic French comfort dish is a restaurant meal on-scale with the finest Parisian dining in the comfort of your own home.
Mr. Hitz attended Le Cordon Bleu Paris and Peter Kumps Cooking School, currently known as the Institute of Culinary Education (ICE). Future entrees in The Beverly Hills Kitchen line will be introduced in fourth quarter 2009 to include LOBSTER THERMIDOR, LOW COUNTRY SHRIMP AND GRITS, SIRLOIN AND POTATO GRATIN, AND NEW ORLEANS STYLE BREAD PUDDING.
