What I teach.

The   importance  of  eating   locally preserving  with the seasons is fundamental to every cooking class I teach.   Understanding  the  history,  geography and lifestyle of a place teaches us about culture and cuisine.

That and it has to be fun and delicious!

Some people have allergies to one version but not the other! Use roasted, unsalted cashews instead.
