Italian Summer Nights Cooking Class with Chef Lee Kuebler

Saturday, July 13
$95.00

Join us for an evening of culinary exploration as we cook up a menu that celebrates the flavors of summer! We’ll start with a sweet and savory grilled stone fruit with creamy burrata cheese and crispy prosciutto – a perfect combination of textures and tastes. Next, we’ll dive into the rich flavors of Italy with our orzo risotto, infused with the brightness of lemon, the saltiness of pecorino cheese, and the subtle kick of fried peppercorns. And don’t miss our main event: local pork chops, slow-cooked to perfection and served with hearty tomato braised pole beans, fragrant with fresh basil and a squeeze of lemon. Every bite is a taste of summer’s sweetness!

Get ready to take your cooking skills to the next level as we share the techniques and secrets behind each dish. From grilling stone fruit to perfecting your risotto game, we’ll have you cooking like a pro in no time. And don’t forget to bring your appetite – we’ve got a feast fit for a king or queen waiting for you!
