A Moveable Feast: Dining Outdoors
Looking for fresh ideas for picnics, days on the boat, beach outings, barbecues, or simply eating out on the deck? That's what I'll cover in this
class. In addition to these make-ahead recipes, I'll show you some lovely ways to pack and serve your tote cuisine. Sunday, July 13th, 1:00 pm
Farmers Market Tour and Class
This is my most popular spring and summer topic. There are two parts: a
tour and a class. Because some people might be more interested in one part, I'm pricing them separately. The market tour is $15.00, and the class is the usual $45.00.
We'll tour the Carrboro Farmers' Market, which I think is the best in the state. You won't believe the freshness and variety of this truly local food.
The tour lasts about an hour. We start early when there's the best selection and smaller crowds.
By this time in the season, the summer stuff will be in full swing. There will
be tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, melons, peaches, beans, squashes, butter beans, handmade cheeses, cut flowers and much more. If you love
fresh fruits and vegetables, you'll love this class. I'll show you how to select the best produce and how to store it. I'll also introduce you to the farmers.
It's wonderful to know the names of the people who grew your food.
On Sunday, we'll meet at my house as usual, where I'll prepare a meal based on the items we selected on the tour. Saturday, July 26th , 7:30 am (market tour) and Sunday, July 27th,
1 pm (the class)
Note: If you can't make this tour, I'm available for private tours on certain Saturdays in July and August. Call me (787-7959) to make arrangements.
Tomatoes, Glorious Tomatoes
For some people, tomatoes are a major food group. One of the rewards
for surviving our hot summers is the tremendous variety of local tomatoes, from homegrown favorites to the fabulous, gorgeous, amazing heirlooms.
Have you ever seen Green Zebras, German Stripes, or Sungolds? This class is devoted to making the most of tomatoes. We'll eat them fresh, roasted, in chutneys, in sauces, and in many other delectable forms!
Sunday, August 24th, 1 pm
