Friday Night Supper Club, with Katherine Kinsolving

Join us in our first Friday Night Supper Club, where we celebrate great food, both in the making and in the eating. Limited to just 6 people, this event will take place in our upstairs kitchen and dining room right here in the Hudson Valley-Berkshires. Come and participate in a brief cooking class before dinner, which you will have helped prepare! There will be nibbles to sate your hunger as Katherine Kinsolving works with you to create these yummy dishes.

This month’s offering features the technique of cooking in parchment, which is fast and fun once you know how. Who doesn’t love to open a special parcel made just for them at dinner? Once mastered, cooking en papillotte can be used for a variety of different dishes for dinner parties or quick weeknight suppers.

Menu will include:
Mixed mezze – a tempting array of bite size morsels to keep hunger at bay, while you help prepare the following…

– Fresh Market Fish en papillotte, Provençal

– Potatoes Abruzzi

– Fresh Market Salad with the perfect dressing

– Chocolate lava cakes with raspberries

This part hands-on, part demonstration class and dinner is limited to just six guests.

A selected wine will be offered with dinner.
