Chef Sarah Chaminade is a mother of two, so she knows what it's like to have picky eaters---and how to keep your child entertained at the kitchen table. She also realizes the importance of knowing where your food comes from, so she uses fresh and local ingredients whenever possible. In this fun and interactive class, parent and child will follow along to make delightful themed recipes together, then enjoy eating the completed dishes---and listening to the story at the end! This class, celebrating "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory," is not for the chocolate faint of heart! We'll honor Willy Wonka himself by preparing everything chocolate, which both parents and kids will enjoy. We'll make: Hand-Rolled Truffles; Chocolate Bark; Chocolate-Covered Popcorn; and Chocolate Clusters. *Limit 2 children per adult. All children and teens must be accompanied by an adult. Everybody attending class must be registered.*

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.
