I had an opportunity to speak with a local chef (Latitude 44 Bistro) in late November who has offered to teach a cooking/baking class series for us during winter term. She has extensive background in many culinary arenas. Her interest in cooking started with a 4H cake decorating class when she was young that led her to state and national competitions and finally to culinary school. She has studied in Europe, has background in many ethnic food cultures (she was a chef in several ethnic restaurants) and has specialized training in gluten-free baking and confections.
In putting together a class for our group, she wants to know what YOU are interested in. Rather than give you options of different types of food or aspects of cooking, she would like to know what YOU want to know and learn about regarding any aspect of food.
Please let me know by Friday Jan 3 what your interests are and if you would be interested in this type of class. Please also let me know if you would rather NOT take a cooking class. (This just helps me gauge interest areas and also lets me know if everyone got the email.)
For planning purposes, since she has to be at work at 2pm (just 2 minutes down the road from where we meet). this class will meet from 12-2. We will have a second class from 2-3. For those with siblings not in the class we will also have an option from 12-1. She is aware that some have classes that might not allow everyone to get there right at 12. The chef is fine with those with classes coming in late.
(If it turn out that everyone can come from 12-2 we may just have 4H from 12-2 for the 5 week session.)
(These classes meet: Jan 23, Jan 30, Feb 6, Feb 20. and Feb 27)
