Take a journey from the
sea to the stove with the Boston Center for Adult
Education's
(BCAE) class “From Boat to Boil” on Saturday, August 9th, 2014 from 8:45AM to
3:00PM. This one-session class will take students on a hands-on Boston
Lobster Tour with lobsterman Captain Carli followed by a lobster
cooking class taught by Island Creek Oyster Bar’s renowned Chef de Cuisine Nicola Hobson.
Students will meet at Sargent’s
Wharf where they’ll join Boston Lobster Tours aboard the “Fourcast”
with Captain Carli. Due to the
maximum occupancy on the lobster boat, the Captain will be taking 2 groups
of 6 out at a time. Group 1 will arrive at Sargents Wharf (off
Commercial St. in the North End) at 8:45AM and Group 2 will
arrive at Sargents Wharf at 9:45AM. The BCAE will contact students after
registration to inform them of which trip they will be on.

Students will get their
hands dirty, or wet rather, hauling lobster traps while learning about the
trade. Once lobsters are caught and claws are banded, the class will head to
the BCAE, where they’ll stand behind the line with chef Nicola Hobson, and
start the breakdown, preparation and cooking of the lobsters. Once the cooking
is done, students will grab a glass of wine and a lobster cracker and enjoy!
