Local chef Karen Sheer is offering a new cooking class in Greenwich, with the theme “Best of the Mediterranean.” The class will take place on Sunday, March 10, 2024 from 1:00pm to 3:30pm at Leicht Greenwich, 11 E Putnam Ave in Greenwich.
The class is ideal for both foodies and chef. Sheer invites you to explore the exquisite flavors and spices of healthy and classic Mediterranean Cuisine in her educational and tasty cooking class.
Learn to master four mouthwatering dishes that are both nourishing and delicious as Sheer will guide you through all the secrets and techniques.
Mediterranean cuisine offers a delicious blend of fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and health benefits.
“Discover why the Mediterranean diet is considered one of the healthiest in the world and learn how to bring its unique taste to your kitchen,” Sheer said. “Mediterranean cooking is both quintessentially classic and utterly contemporary.”
In Sheer’s cooking class participants can expect to learn where to shop for ingredients and prepare homemade delicious recipes – and feel confident cooking for yourself, family and company.
Meal prep and time-saving tips will be discussed to make your busy lives easier.
Participants will be preparing and enjoying four authentic recipes from the region with a welcome hors d’oeuvre and wine pairing.
“Participation is welcomed, but not mandatory,” Sheer said. “It is a fun experience with friends old and new in this beautiful kitchen. Take a culinary trip to The Mediterranean… right here in Greenwich.”
