SUMMARY:Winter Braising Menu with David Wurth
DESCRIPTION:Join Chef David Wurth for the perfect winter cooking class as he shares techniques from braising to baking.

Everybody helped a little. He vividly recalls helping his mother make a salad where he learned that the technique of tearing the lettuce leaves instead of cutting them with a knife made for a better tasting salad. He also recalls learning that after slicing a cucumber for the salad there is left a small nub at the end the salad maker gets to eat as a special only-for-the-cook treat. Secrets and special treats—well that was intriguing enough to open the door to spend more time in the kitchen. Later\, there were professional stops in Martha’s Vineyard and Philadelphia and New York City\, and then Philmont\, NY. Most recently he was the chef/owner of CrossRoads Food Shop in Hillsdale NY\, where he famously made egg sandwiches\, pancakes\, baked goods\, pickles and sandwiches for a full decade of Hudson Valley deliciousness while using seasonal ingredients grown by his local farmer friends. \nCancellation policy: We do not offer refunds on purchased tickets. Persons who notify us at least seven (7) days in advance that they cannot attend may receive credit and register for another class of equal value held within the subsequent two months\, if a class is available. \nCooking class attendees receive 10% discount on kitchenware purchases on class day. \nHGS Home Chef is a member of TheWorkshopExperience.org\, a group of friends who produce exceptional experiential learning through classes and workshops on a wide variety of topics in and around Hillsdale\, NY – at the crossroads of the Hudson Valley and Berkshires. \n  \n
