Nicolet Rec Dept Offering "Knife Skills Charcuterie Class"

Register for this class or other programs starting on 8/8 by visiting: https://web2.vermontsystems.com/nicolet.html

Perilla Kitchen and Moleta: Artisanal Sharpening are offering a knife skills demo that allows students to practice beginner and intermediate skills while making their own mini charcuterie board to take home! Jenny Lee of Perilla Kitchen will demonstrate how to hold a knife properly and how to cut ingredients safely. Alena Joling, owner of Moleta, will explain knife safety, why a sharp knife is safer and how to keep it that way. Students will practice cutting meats, cheeses, and vegetable garnishes while learning professional presentation techniques that will impress their future party guests.

Moleta will provide each student a sharpened knife and cutting board during the class, plus a bamboo plate for each student to be able to take their creation home with them. Students have the option to bring their dull knives to be sharpened by Moleta during classes (billed separately to individual students according to prices on moletausa.com).

Moleta: Artisanal Sharpening is a collective of local sharpeners whose mission is to bring the joy and safety of professionally sharpened knives to everyone.
