Whether you want to write a cookbook or articles for magazines, a blog or websites, you need to know the essential skills and techniques it takes to create recipes that not only taste great when you make them but can be successfully recreated by readers. Along with prolific cookbook author and food writer Marge Perry, you’ll learn how to create recipes that appeal to readers; what to do in the kitchen to ensure your recipes work for everyone; and how to write recipes that are accurate, clear and easy to read. In this two-day workshop, we’ll go over the conventions and craft of recipe writing, actually develop a recipe in the kitchen, and practice writing recipes. You’ll come away with a solid and market-ready knowledge of how to create recipes that are ready to be published. Marge Perry has created thousands of recipes for publication, including those for Every Day With Rachael Ray, Cooking Light, Self, Better Homes & Gardens, her longstanding Newsday column, and more. In addition, she has contributed to more than 20 cookbooks and written two of her own. Her writing and recipes appear on many websites, including her blog, A Sweet and Savory Life.
                    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.

Come join NYC’s longest running wine course. Over its 45+ year history, thousands of students, food and wine professionals and the wine interested public alike, have participated in this program. This six-session course, crafted by ICE director of wine studies Richard Vayda, uses grape varietals, as well as winemaking regions, as the keys to understanding the full wine spectrum. You will receive a thorough introduction to winemaking, tasting, laws and labeling as you learn about wine components and taste some of the world’s most celebrated wines. In these six sessions, you will sample up to 60 wines! Session 1: Winemaking and Wine-Tasting Basics. Session 2: France: The Wines and Grapes of Burgundy and Bordeaux. Session 3: The Major Wines and Grape Varieties of Italy. Session 4: Spanish and other Warm-Climate Wines. Session 5: Wine Tour of the US West Coast. Session 6: A Tour of Sparkling Wine from Around the World.
Bordeaux means history, elegance, grandeur...and superb classic wines. This class explores the riches of the varied wines from this fabled region. That's why Richard Vayda, ICE's resident sommelier, has scoured the ICE cellar to put together a special tasting, covering multiple subregions and including Cru Classé wines. We'll discuss the area's history, geography, wine regulations and production, all while sipping these special samples --- accompanied by some fitting nibbles. We'll taste at least nine wines, plus matching cheeses.
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).
Simple and delicious are the themes for this class, which teaches you how to make fresh Italian dishes that are so good --- and easy to execute --- you'll make them for yourself, friends and loved ones again and again. Premium ingredients shine in this menu, drawing from the country's great traditions: Tuscan fennel and raddichio salad; hand-rolled meatballs; risotto Milanese and sauteed broccoli rabe with garlic.
