With such a wide variety of flavors and textures, mushrooms could be part of just about every dinner, serving as a side, filling or meat substitute in a main dish. Whether you are a lifelong mycophile unafraid of foraging for your own mushrooms or an amateur who prefers to purchase clearly labeled mushrooms out of a basket, you will leave this class with a repertoire of recipes for mushrooms such as porcini, chanterelle, oyster and many more. On your menu: duxelles bourekas (baked mushroom-filled filo triangles); penne with sun-dried tomatoes and chanterelles and porcini-crusted arctic char with Brussels sprouts, oyster mushrooms and brown butter.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.
