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.

Nothing beats the rich flavor and perfectly al dente texture of handmade pasta. So let's practice making our own pastas by hand and concoct some rich fillings, learning how to stuff ravioli, tortellini and cannelloni. As we make these three heavenly pastas, we'll complete them with homemade sauces that are the perfect complement to each shape and filling. You'll handcraft: lemon ricotta ravioli with sage brown butter, roasted red pepper tortellini in fra diavolo sauce, and beef angolotti in brodo.
The genius of Tuscan cuisine lies within its simplicity of fresh ingredients. The landscape is a romantic patchwork of grapevines, farmhouses and olive groves. If you and a date are considering an Italian countryside getaway, save yourself the plane tickets and join ICE for an intimate Tuscan feast where you will make: Tuscan chicken liver paté; shaved fennel and radicchio salad; handmade pappardelle with truffle sauce; and bistecca alla fiorentina.
The lush, green Pacific Northwest is famous for its wild salmon, oysters and beers, but that's just the tip of the gastronomic iceberg. Its forests are home to mushrooms and berries that turn up in countless recipes.

You will learn how to use these techniques and ingredients to make: Pacific oysters with mignonette; pan seared salmon with crispy skin and blackberry sauce; sautéed mushrooms and herbs; salt-and-vinegar potatoes; and kale, hazelnut and goat cheese salad. You will enjoy those with a selection of wines from the region.
