Winter Warmers: Classic Soups & Stews

Limited Hands On | Tasting
Wed 2/9/22      6:30-9:00 p.m.

Class Description: 

It’s the time of year when the big pot at the back of the cabinet beckons us to pull it out and fill it with hearty, comforting soups, and stews to warm our bellies. The attraction of a good bowl of hot soup or stew on a cold day is obvious and, like cooking anything else, making a soup or stew is a great way to spend a winter afternoon. Not to mention, it makes your home smell so homey when simmering on the stove.  

Tonight, Chef & Lead Instructor Jill Garcia Schmidt, will share some informative tips and tricks of making tasty and satisfying big bowls of love. She’s a whiz in the kitchen and has a fun, easy-to-understand teaching style.   

She’ll run the gamut from broth-based soups to hearty beefy stews as she teaches some of her favorite winter warmers like classic French Onion, savory Chicken Tortilla Soup and much more! Yes, sirree, these gems are destined to become your new go-to favorites.

You’ll garner basic cooking skills and culinary knowledge on how to make a stock as a soup base, how to prepare and use a roux to add dimension, the benefits of pureeing, all about broths and thickening agents and so much more!  Plus, you’ll get in on some of the cooking activities… and we’ll taste everything, too!

A great class for the heart of colder months. So, what are you waiting for – sign up today!
