Celebrate the flavors of the season in this hands-on class that puts a gourmet twist on classic comfort food. We’ll guide you through creating a perfectly seared pork chop topped with a homemade cherry miso compote—a bright, savory-sweet sauce made with fresh cherries, a touch of sugar, and just a splash of lemon juice.
You’ll also learn the secret to mastering asparagus gratin—a creamy, crispy take on this spring vegetable that preserves its texture and flavor—plus start the night with a refreshing, seasonal summer salad.
In this class, you’ll learn:
How to make a cherry compote from scratch and balance sweet with umami-rich miso
Tips for pan-searing pork chops to juicy, golden perfection
A simple technique for cooking asparagus that keeps it crisp and flavorful
How to build a summer salad that’s anything but boring
Whether you’re looking for a date night activity, a fun evening with friends, or just want to up your kitchen game, this class is a delicious way to do it. Come hungry and ready to cook!
