Unsung: Negelected Winter Vegetables
Sunday, February 10, 4-8PM, Ticketed
Unsung: Neglected Winter Vegetables
$100 for 18 Reasons members; $125 for the general public.
Unsung illuminates the idea that some of the most delicious, enjoyable and memorable things to cook and eat are the foods most neglected in the modern kitchen: pea shoots, garnishing a tart of spring onion and bacon; fennel fronds, pounded into a piquant salsa verde; cardoons, braised and tossed with pasta and pecorino; kohlrabi, simmered with apple and pear and pureed into the most phenomenal soup. These overlooked foods are some of the most delicious and most affordable items at your farmers' markets and grocery stores.
In this class we will tackle four unsung items we adore:
parsnip, pomegranate, and kumquats
Note -- the recipes are vegetable driven but not vegetarian. Please let us know of any dietary requests.
More about the classes
Michelle McKenzie uses her passionate voice and professional culinary skills to convince you to celebrate all the seasons have to offer. These unsung ingredients are unlikely to make it onto your weekly shopping list, so Michelle shows you how to peruse without one. Cooking doesn't have to be about detailed, precise recipes or the pursuit of perfection. Cooking can be about surrendering to what the moment has to offer, even if what's on offer is unfamiliar, looks strange, or bears an absurd, unpronounceable name. In this manner, your food can become your own, not a borrowed formula to be scientifically and slavishly executed. When you begin to approach the market with more curiosity than expectation, a sense of anticipation and exploration takes hold. It's freeing. It's fun!
