**This workshop will be live streamed via Zoom.**
Join Chef Meloni Courtway for a berry season bonanza to celebrate local flavors and ingredients in their prime. Via an on-line ZOOM class you will prepare together with Meloni a strawberry and shrimp salsa, the Perfect Pie Crust for a berry galette. Scout out the best berries at your local Farmer’s Market or farm stand the weekend before, or pick them in the wild as they come into season. Bring them back to your own kitchens for this hands-on cooking class. Watch and follow-along as you turn these seasonal market treasures into a beautiful and flavorful appetizer and dessert.
This is a live, virtual hands-on cooking class for adults and/or children all from the comfort of your own kitchen. Meloni’s class will be fun, interactive, hands-on and entertaining. Follow along, ask questions, interact with others just like you would if you were in the BARN Kitchen.
