Overview
BACK TO BASICS: COOKING FUNDAMENTALS
Wednesday, May 13th, 6 pm - 9 pm
This is the must attend class for every person who wants to create a great meal, every meal! You’ll learn how to enhance everyday ingredients to create a delicious meal from pantry staples. We’ll practice the basics of the broil, pan-fry, sauté, grill, steam and roast. We’ll teach you why we blanch some vegetables and why others are better roasted. You’ll learn why we sear some meats and sometimes finish cooking in the oven. This is the cornerstone class that teaches you truly how to cook. |
