Savory Galette Lunch with Miriam Rubin

Galettes (rustic tarts) are both simple and elegant, and surprisingly easy to make. In this part-demo, part hands-on class, Miriam Rubin will show how to make the perfect crust and then each student will roll their own dough and fill it with a filling of choice – Greens & Feta; Roasted Pumpkin; or Cream Cheese & Smoked Salmon. Then we’ll pop them in the oven. You’ll find Miriam’s flavor combinations delectable.

While the galettes are baking and the kitchen fills with a mouth-watering aroma, Miriam will demonstrate how to make a flourless chocolate cake. Moist, rich and oh, so easy, this dessert will become your go-to. In fact, the entire menu is perfect for entertaining a group, or making a simple dinner for two at home.

Menu to include:

• Assorted Savory Galettes (choice of fillings…Greens & Feta; Roasted Pumpkin; or Cream Cheese & Smoked Salmon)
• Autumn Salad
• Flourless Chocolate Cake

This part hands-on, part demonstration class is limited to just ten people.
