MEAL PLANNING, PANTRY STOCKING and USING LEFTOVERS

(Course #522) –NEW

$140, Comm Ed Kitchen, Wednesdays, 6–9 pm,

4 weeks beginning January 21

Tired of the same old meals? Leery about “leftovers”? Want to gain 8-10 hours of free time each month? Don’t know what to make when unexpected guests show up? Then, this class is for you. Cooking and baking are the kinds of activities that most people assume should be second nature; simply because we like to eat. Many people don’t believe they can just step into a kitchen and make something good to eat. Together, we will prove that theory to be wrong. This class will teach you the basics of food preparation and menu planning. We will cover basic knife skills, food safety, food preparation, pantry stocking, meal planning, utilization of the dreaded leftover, and maybe some food garnishes. Each night we will prepare a variety of foods to sample and take home. Instructor: Douglas Drake
