(NYC) Seasoning 101: How to Use Herbs + Spices

This class is designed to be the end-all-be-all for your seasoning questions. We cover all of the following, and cook up a variety of different dishes that incorporate these techniques:

• ​Identifying every herb and spice available to you in the supermarket 
• When to choose herbs vs. spices
• Food pairings (what herbs/spices pair well with what meats, vegetables, starches, fruit)
• Medicinal properties
• Where to buy
• How to store

To highlight these teachings, we'll make a spiced rice pilaf, Indian lentil dal with aromatic butter, and fattoush (a Middle Eastern chopped salad with spiced pita chips and fresh herbs, and a Persian kuku, a baked herb and egg dish).
