SUMMARY:Everyday Moroccan\, With Alexandra Stafford
DESCRIPTION:Note: Due to high demand\, we’ve added another section of this class on May 20.  \nClick here to reserve that one. \nPreserved lemons\, homemade harissa\, ras-el-hanout—an elemental Moroccan pantry is in everyone’s reach. In this Everyday Moroccan class\, we’ll make these three pantry staples—everyone will go home with a jar of each—then use the ingredients to make three dishes: chickpea tagine with tomato jam\, ras-el-hanout\, and golden raisins\, chicken and rice with dates\, orange and harissa\, and lamb meatballs with green olives and preserved lemons. We’ll roast Delicata squash and make bread to serve alongside.

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.

SUMMARY:Delectable Appetizers with Alexandra Stafford
DESCRIPTION:A great cocktail party is the ideal way to entertain at home for the holidays and beyond and in this cooking class you’ll learn classic appetizers to put your party over the top. Join Cookbook author Alexandra Stafford as she walks us through the basics of delicious hors d’oeuvre. \n  \nFinger food (with a perfect cocktail) should tantalize the taste buds and prepare the palate. And in some cases heavier appetizers can become a meal in themselves. Alexandra’s selection of go-to appetizers checks all the boxes from simply savory to oh-so-satisfying. \nJoin us for this class (just in time for the holidays) and we’ll even mix a special cocktail to go with the tasting after the class! \nMenu to include:\n\nMarinated olives\nRoasted marcona almonds\nBaked fontina with rosemary and thyme\nBaked camembert\nChicken liver pate with homemade melba toast\nCrostini with homemade ricotta\, served two ways: with roasted squash and caramelized onions\, and thyme-roasted grapes\nWarm crab dip\nCrudité with green goddess dressing\n\nLimited 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. \nCancellation policy: We do not offer refunds on purchased tickets.

SUMMARY:Simple and Spectacular Summer Grilling with Alexandra Stafford
DESCRIPTION:  \n‘Tis the season of food meeting fire. In this class\, we’ll turn the oven off and take the cooking outside: \n\nWe’ll grill skewered cubes of chicken and make souvlaki sandwiches with tzatziki and quick-pickled onions.\nWe’ll briefly marinate salmon before grilling it atop cedar planks.\nWe’ll quickly grill slabs of flavorful skirt steak\, which we’ll brush with a spicy\, herby chimichurri.\n\nAs the meats marinate\, cook\, and rest\, we’ll prepare cooling salads\, sides and pickles to accompany the charred and burnished foods emerging from the grill. \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 had 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. \n\n \nPowered by Eventbrite
