Our community is very lucky to have some wonderful & free learning opportunities - & I think these cooking classes are among the best! They are held in the demo kitchen on the second floor of Bayview Thriftway (516 W Fourth Ave in downtown Olympia) & happen every first Thursday of the month from 9-11 AM. The classes are taught by Pat Leslie who is a retired WSU faculty member, and no prior registration is required - just show up!
Upcoming sessions will include Cast Iron Skillet Cookery on June 5th - featuring recipes & techniques for making snacks, main courses and desserts using a cast iron skillet for indoor or outdoor cooking. Then on July 10th, it will be Picnic Fare & Food Safety with great salads and tips on safe serving during hot weather (which hopefully we will actually have!). And on August 7th, it will be Garden Vegetables, where you can learn what to do with all the corn, zucchini, string beans & tomatoes that are either ripening in your garden or that you are buying at Farmer's Market.
Besides tasty & creative recipes and great nutrition tips, Pat makes everything look so simple that you will be ready to go home and try these ideas yourself!
