All around the globe for over 1000 years, societies have been cultivating grains. In the United States we associate “grain” with our most processed industrial food supply. This is often an accurate association. But throughout the world, grains represent ancient agriculture practices and facilitate all sorts of inventive cuisine! Celebrate with us a bit of culinary history while cooking up some of our favorite “alternative, heirloom & ancient” grains. We’ll demonstrate cooking techniques, create and eat finished dishes, and send you off with a starter pantry of our local favorites.
Class duration: 2 ½ hours. Class Limit: 15. Class includes light refreshments & bevys, printed recipes and a Pixie Scout jumbo canvas tote bag full of grains goodies!
DISCLAIMER: The Pixie Scout culinary workshops are interactive and participatory. Come ready to work! We’ll put salt, knives and money into your hands (not at all at the same time!) and ask you to think like a chef. We will never ask you to work on an empty stomach and we’ll never send you away empty-handed. Join us for one of our … ADVENTURES IN SEASONAL EATING.
