The Better Eating Series: Knife Skills and Modern Veggie Bowls

Build real kitchen confidence with a hands-on workshop focused on essential knife skills and modern, flavor-packed vegetable cooking. Join Chef Jesse Cross at The Wine Collective for a vibrant, technique-driven class that shows you how to turn everyday produce into beautiful, nourishing meals.

You’ll learn how to safely and efficiently cut vegetables, how to prep them for raw, roasted, and sautéed dishes, and how to bring everything to life using Jesse’s Better Eating Building Blocks. This class is perfect for beginners and home cooks looking to elevate their everyday cooking with fresh, bold flavors.
