Cooking Essentials: Spices and Oils
Saturday, June 11, 2011 from 11:00 AM - 2:00 PM (ET)
Artisan's Asylum, Somerville

Do you eat a lot of expensive pre-cooked meals or restaurant suppers but want to learn how you can save money cooking for yourself? Are you a home cook who enjoys cooking but feel your food is too bland? Have you ever wondered about the differences between vegetable oil, canola oil, sesame oil and extra virgin olive oil? Then this class is for you! This class is about learning basic differences between various oils, spices, sugars and salts, including when to use them and when to leave them out. You will get to evaluate dozens of different spices and oils and see which ones you like. There will not be any actual cooking during this class so you can leave your aprons at home, but there will be basic introductions as to why certain foods are cooked in certain ways. Tips, tricks and handouts will be included, as well as suggestions for good local places to find what you're looking for.

Price: $40.00 plus $1.99 fee - but this includes materials.

Best idea ever. Knowing even a little bit of how amazingly your husband cooks, I would sign up in a minute if I were local.

thorbol took the class in January and was very impressed. I plan to take it this time.

Just remember that you do have to pre-register. If there aren't enough enrollments, the class gets cancelled.
