Master the essential dishes everyone needs in their cooking repertoire. With syndicated food columnist Marge Perry, you’ll learn the skills it takes not just to cook multiple dishes, but to transform each one into several different variations. You'll leave this class with the confidence and skills it takes to whip up dinner with ease, pleasure and delicious results. We'll make: tender, juicy chicken breasts; golden-crusted, moist salmon; wholesome (and healthier!) mac and cheese; an easy and impressive fruit galette; perfectly cooked steak; and herb and lemon roast snapper.
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.
