A hands-on cooking class culminating in dinner served with wine and beer.

In this three-hour breadmaking workshop, we will learn about the history, chemistry, and cultural significance of Indian bread. Led by the skilled and passionate hands of Roop Soni, Simran Singh and Stacie Dong, we will prepare the following, accompanied by traditional condiments (chutneys and raitas), pickles, masala chai and carrot halwa with Bi-Rite ice cream for dessert.  This class will focus on stuffed paranthas.

Stuffed Parathas are a complete meal in themselves.  Usually eaten for breakfast, brunch, simple weekend lunch, picnics and as "to-go" food on trips.  The possibilities for fillings are endless, with potato/aloo being the most common and possibly most loved.
