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.*
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.

Ayurveda is the world's oldest form of natural healing and health. Its basic premise is that there exists an innate intelligence in our body and mind to be balanced and healthy.

The sauces you will learn to make in this class are not just for special-occasion dishes you'll prepare once a year. Relying on pantry ingredients and reflecting the contemporary cook's lifestyle, they are meant to easily take a grilled meat or poached fish from simple to superlative with a pan reduction, beurre blanc or a pesto. You will master these techniques by making sauteed steak with red wine reduction sauce; poached salmon with beurre blanc and pasta with pesto.
