Wondering what to serve your guests during cocktail hour this holiday season? Look no further than these three delectable and creative crowd-pleasing bite-sized appetizers. Join Leah Guadagnoli for an artful approach to entertaining, plus learn her secret to making the perfect martini to impress your guests.
Leah will begin with a lentil mushroom walnut pâté on her homemade seeded crackers that is surprisingly rich and decadent. Next, she’ll make homemade smoky cured carrots served on top of sliced cucumber with whipped cream cheese and capers. We’ll end with endive boats filled with pear, walnuts, and blue cheese—seasonal, crisp, and no dishes necessary! This class comes just in time as you plan your holiday entertaining. Join us, and let’s celebrate!
This demonstration class (plus eating!) is limited to ten people.
Leah Guadagnoli is an artist, chef, and homesteader living in Hillsdale, NY. She is the founder of Fancy Feast Supper Club, a creative dinner series that brings people together through homegrown globally inspired vegetarian meals she prepares from her garden with passion, love, and a genuine curiosity for the overlapping flavors and techniques our expansive universe has to offer. Through extensive research and an ethically conscious appreciation of other cultures through food, her goal is to celebrate our commonalities and unique differences to form connections and better understand the world we share. When she’s not busy in the kitchen, you can find her working in the studio making abstract sculptural paintings she’s been exhibiting internationally over the past decade or tending to her garden with the company of her beloved flock of chickens.
