Soup is the most comforting part of any meal. To make a great soup, you must first start with a flavorful stock. The class begins by making a chicken stock as a base to build the soups. Chef Maria will teach you the basics on how to layer your flavors in order to build a delicious and healthy soup your family and friends. In this class you will explore three versions: a hearty thick soup using seasonal puréed vegetables, a brothy soup using chicken and pasta and a new take on a traditional Italian minestrone soup.

Wednesday February 29 (11:30-1:30): Basic Knife Skills for Adults

Chef Maria is fond of saying, “You are in charge of the knife, it’s not in charge of you”! Proper handling and practice is the key to excellent knife skills. In this class we will learn how to sharpen our knife on a stone and practice with a variety of fruits and vegetables. After which we will turn our mis en place into a tasty lunch and dessert.
