Winter Soups with Mimi Beaven

As sure as longer nights and cozy fires, soup season is a thing. Making flavorful soup to nourish and comfort is easy if you learn some simple principles that can be applied to any ingredient.

In this demonstration class we will talk about making your own delicious broths, different kinds of soups and how you can adapt these principles to use any ingredients you have available in the lean produce months of our Northeast winter. At the end of class, we will sit and enjoy all of the soups, plus Mimi’s focaccia over lunch.

Menu to include:

• Winter Minestrone with Pesto
• Thai-inspired Winter Squash & Coconut Soup with Coriander ‘Chutney’
• Hungarian Mushroom Soup with Dill Sour Cream
• Mimi’s Focaccia

About Mimi Beaven

Mimi grew up surrounded by French and English food as her parents had a restaurant in the Cotswolds, England and her grandparents and French family had restaurants in Lyon, France. After studying Agriculture, she started working front of house in restaurants and then raised two daughters with her husband Richard. After moving to the US in 2002 and then having a house in Ghent from 2005 Mimi cooked more and more. Richard and Mimi founded and built Made in Ghent at Little Ghent Farm in 2014 and operated it successfully until 2021. They had a loyal following who loved Mimi’s bread, cakes, soups and preserves along with the pork, chicken, and eggs they raised on the farm.
