Have you ever wanted to learn how to make delicious dishes from fresh Wisconsin-grown ingredients? Learning how to cook with locally sourced ingredients right from the farms of Wisconsin is a fun and unique experience. You’ll learn how to create savory feasts featuring grains like corn, spelt, rye, and buckwheat that have been harvested nearby. You may be surprised just how delicious cooking with locally-sourced ingredients can be! Every dish is sure to impress and you’ll savor the flavor of freshness in each bite.

We’ll use local grains, grown in Wisconsin to make:

• Mixed grain salad with sweet potatoes, cranberries, kale, and pomegranate vinaigrette
• Spelt & wild mushroom risotto

• Shrimp & grits casserole
• Buckwheat, rye, and oatmeal pancakes

Cold beer and wine, in addition to cocktails, are available for purchase from our bar. Come early for cocktails (5:30) — class begins at 6:00!
