Tired of the same old meals? Looking for a few tips and tricks for elevating the cooking that you do for you? This class is aimed at the simple meals that make day to day life just a little tastier. In this class you’ll learn to master an aioli, to poach and soft boil eggs, to pickle shallots and turn them into an everyday staple vinaigrette.
