Great Class on Sunday

Sorry I have had company in town so I missed a few days. 

The class went very well.  The Faro Salad, and two soups I prepared were a hit.  We had over 20 people attending. I stayed after and answered questions about the class and cooking in general.  That is a great time to ask questions and I can take the time to answer and also demonstrate techniques.  So come by and join the class every Sunday at 12 Noon at Williams Sonoma in The District in Green Valley.


Sous Chef Series Class is Saturday - more about that and the Sunday class on Vitamix later.

Great Grains

On Sunday come and learn about Great Grains.  Fall is in the air and beans and other grains work well for hearty food and cold temperatures outside.  Sunday @ 12 noon at Williams Sonoma in the District - see you there!

Halloween Party

Here are some ideas for some Halloween Food.   Use purple potatoes to make potato salad - they have a great taste as well as the color.

Use Purple Sticky rice to make rice pudding. I use a small bowl to chill it and then when I unmold it on a plate I add details to make it look like brains. Kids love it.

Make home made Root beer.  Make sure an adult handles the Dry Ice so that as it being carbonated, it creates a fog.  Really great for effects.

So get creative and let me know your ideas.
