Classy Cooking
On Sunday, I took a cooking class with Emily Dellas. She runs a cooking school out of her cool loft downtown. The theme of the meal was healthy Summer eating. She has an infectious happy energy and a loves to share her food knowledge with others. I learned a few new skills while we cooked quinoa dolmas, tricolore salad, chermoula sauce over salmon or tofu, and frozen yogurt with berries. It was all delicious. Of course being a bit of a restaurant go-er, each dish reminded me of something I have had at a different restaurant only better, albeit involving more work.
It was an action packed evening. Especially when a pan of oil caught on fire and the smoke alarm went off. All part of the show I’m sure, and it made the end product even better.
