Join Kate McDill and Elisa Laverty to learn about ways to make easy sweet and savory treats using puff pastry.
Want to increase your wow factor at a potluck or when you host your book group, wine-tasting club or game night? This class will give you beautiful, tasty, and easy sweet and savory options for using frozen puff pastry. The result will take one quarter the time and be just as flavorful.
We will make a couple of appetizers, such as samosa, and chutney cheese palmiers, a couple of main dishes like pissaladière, and a tart of grilled vegetables with bacon and bleu cheese, and finish up with a dessert of fig and orange tart. Bring your appetite and curiosity! We will sit down together to share our feast with a glass of wine.
Registration closes March 26.

Kate McDill learned to bake at the Surrogate Hostess on Capitol Hill in Seattle. The training included both traditional French pastry and breads, and American comfort goodies. Baking is her craft, and she is happy to share her knowledge and pass on the art of creating tasty treats.
Elisa Laverty, originally from the Olympic Peninsula, has been a Bainbridge Island resident for nine years. Her experience with baking and cooking started at a young age, being the oldest in a large family. Her professional experience in the food service industry has spanned the past decade and continues to be something she is passionate about. A few of the places she has worked on the island includes, Bainbridge Bakers, Sweet Dahlia bakery, Blackbird Bakery, and Good Egg. She is the mother of a son, 6, who just started kindergarten; and a daughter, 6 months. She's excited to participate at BARN and hopes to lead some classes of her own!
