Are any of the following true for you? In your mind, you are the next Iron Chef. That family recipe for lasagna gets raves from your foodie friends. Baking is your life. Your kids and work colleagues line up for seconds and thirds. Living gluten-free limits your restaurant experience; if only a place would open nearby. That little home catering business you started on the side is more in demand than ever. If one or more of these situations is fueling the urge to turn a culinary passion, hobby or avocation into a business, then this three-hour session may be a quick way to turn up the flames. We will cover the following much-needed information to help get you started: - Define Your Concept: What are you selling, and how are you selling it? - Relate to Your Customers: Who will buy what you sell? - Check Out the Competition: Learn from others. - Legal Do's and Don'ts: Regulations, laws and rules, the health department, company structure, dealing with landlords, etc. - Where to Begin: What steps are needed to get going? - How to Find Help: What can you do, and what help do you need? - Determine a Budget: What are the profits? How much can you make? - What Will Life Be Like Afterward? This is an invaluable class and a unique opportunity to get the perspective of ICE's former director of culinary management, Stephen Zagor --- a veteran restaurant consultant, educator, and former entrepreneur who has helped numerous students get into the business of food.

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.

Braising - searing at a high temperature, then finishing in a liquid at a lower temperature to infuse flavor - can add umami and more to pretty much any meal! And the best part is, it creates tender, juicy dishes with a minimum of effort. We'll master this technique as we make a braised banquet of: Guinness-braised short ribs with creamy polenta; braised chicken thighs with mushrooms and balsamic vinegar and braised fennel.
Fresh, warm bread is always a great way to start the day, or perfect to add to a meal or have as a quick snack. Suitable for breakfast, snacking, topping or as a side dish, quick breads deliver a lot of flavor and light, airy texture. And what if you have an intolerance to gluten? Learn how to create wheat-free flour blends to make satisfying, fluffy and, yes, gluten-free savory and sweet quick breads that deliver everything we love about their conventional, wheat-based counterparts. Once you try these gluten-free beauties, they'll become requested favorites by your family and friends. On your menu: pear-cardamom quick bread; feta-dill quick bread; Irish soda bread; and banana bread. *Please note ICE is not a gluten free facility
The simple yet refined flavors of Tuscan cooking are world famous, and with good reason. Whether the product of one of Florence's great restaurants or the simple dishes from a country kitchen, the integrity of Tuscan cooking has won applause for centuries. Learn some of the secrets of this venerable cuisine as you make and enjoy: crostini with roasted eggplant; bistecca alla fiorentina; pollo alla toscana and cipolline agrodolce.
Georgian cuisine is finally being recognized for its variety, and the depth of flavors and techniques that characterize its unique culinary traditions. Given the country's location at the exact intersection of Europe and Asia, influences from both cultures have informed the dishes that the region is known for. From the banks of the Black Sea to the Caucasus Mountains, the land provides herbs, nuts and vegetables used in all aspects of its culinary traditions. You’ll become acquainted with the new "it" cuisine as you prepare: adjaruli khachapuri (cheese bread); nigvziani badrijani (stuffed eggplant rolls); tabaka (chicken cooked "under a brick") with blackberry sauce; and chakapuli (braised lamb with tarragon sauce).
Ranked as America’s Best Culinary School (USAToday 2019), our roster of Chef-Instructors have run top kitchens around the globe.
