We’ve all faced a pantry full of random ingredients, searched vainly for inspiration to create a delicious meal and lacked a clear vision. There, lurking in the shadows is something odd, like lima beans or fish sauce, or what is the name of this veggie in the CSA box again? We welcome Chef Graden to the rescue: the purpose of the class is to teach home cooks to find inspired meals and delicious flavors using what they have on hand, highlighting creativity and critical thinking skills. Upon registration, students will be asked to list five ingredients often found in their pantry for Scott to sink his culinary chops into. Once class begins, you and your fellow students will engage in a rollicking and festive search for inspiration in the dark corners of your collective pantry. You’ll celebrate your success with a community feast on Sunday evening. Teach yourself to escape the boring dinner once and for all.
