SUMMARY:Carrot Cake Craving with Matthew White

Mostly from the eating side of things\, mind you\, but he’s a pretty good baker too. He owns the delightful Hillsdale General Store and HGS Home Chef where culinary stars teach (and inspire him) nearly every weekend of the year. \n \nPowered by Eventbrite\n\nCancellation policy: We do not offer refunds on purchased tickets.

DESCRIPTION:The glories of harvest season inspire us to prepare meals packed with fresh seasonal ingredients before warm weather turns cool. In this very special class\, followed by a proper lunch in our upstairs dining room\, you will learn from a master of flavor – Alexandra Stafford. \nIn this intimate demonstration class\, Ali will walk through the steps of layering seasonal flavors for maximum impact.

When her website began to grow in popularity\, readers began asking how to make the bread they’d heard so much about. Alexandra’s mother acquiesced\, and the recipe got shared\, and has since inspired many who had deemed bread-baking an impossibility to give it a try\, and their results have exceeded expectations. It all led to Ali’s recent cookbook\, “Bread Toast Crumb\,” praised by the world’s top-selling baking-book authors including Dorie Greenspan and David Lebovitz.

SUMMARY:Cooking Confidently with Herbs\, with Alexandra Stafford
DESCRIPTION:Fresh herbs are the enhancers\, and sometimes the foundation\, of countless flavor-packed recipes. But how does one use them to best effect and what do they actually bring to the table? Alexandra Stafford – cookbook author\, popular blogger at Alexandra’s Kitchen and HGS Home Chef instructor – will answer these questions while creating dishes that beautifully illustrate the impact of fresh garden herbs. \nWith summer under way\, it’s time to use fresh herbs lavishly in your warm-weather dishes. In this class Alexandra will demonstrate the joy of herbs and how they can be used for maximum effect in dishes you will love to create in your own kitchen. \nMenu Will Include:\n\nTabbouleh salad\nCucumber and Green Grape Gazpacho\nGreen Goddess Dressing\nCilantro-lime Chickpeas\nRosemary Shortbread\n\nThis demonstration class limited to 12 people. \nAbout Alexandra Stafford:\nAli Stafford\, author of the hit food blog “Alexandra’s Kitchen” (www.alexandracooks.com)\, grew up eating her mother’s peasant bread at nearly every meal—the recipe for which was a closely guarded family secret. When her website began to grow in popularity\, readers began asking how to make the bread they’d heard so much about. Alexandra’s mother acquiesced\, and the recipe got shared\, and has since inspired many who had deemed bread-baking an impossibility to give it a try\, and their results have exceeded expectations. It all led to Ali’s recent cookbook\, “Bread Toast Crumb\,” praised by the world’s top-selling baking-book authors including Dorie Greenspan and David Lebovitz. Ali is also a columnist for Food52.com. \n \nPowered by Eventbrite\n\nCancellation policy: We do not offer refunds on purchased tickets.
