Exploring the Flavors of Herbs

Exploring the Flavors of Herbs, co-sponsored by The Herb Society of America’s NorthEast Seacoast Unit and Strawbery Banke Museum.

Registered dietician Pamela Stuppy explains how to eat more healthfully in 2012 by using herbs and other plant based foods to deliciously modify recipes in order to reduce the use of salt, sugar and fat in the diet. Pam will also answer questions about nutrition-related health topics of interest to the group. Pamela Stuppy, MS, RD, CSSD, LD, with private practice offices in York, ME and Newington, NH, is the dietitian for Phillips Exeter Academy, a weekly columnist for Seacoast News, the dietitian for Oakhurst Dairy, and a past president of the Maine Dietetic Association. She has conducted presentations and workshops on a variety of nutrition topics throughout the country, taught at the University of New Hampshire and has written a book for health professionals on osteoporosis. She has also taught healthy cooking classes at the Stonewall Kitchen Cooking School.

The program takes place in Stoodley’s Tavern at Strawbery Banke Museum (17 Hancock Street, just across the street from the main museum parking lot). Pre-registration is required by January 27. Registration is $8 ($5 for Strawbery Banke Museummembers.) To register, please contact Riekie Sluder at 603-642-7034 or nesunit@gmail.com
