Class Description:
We’re taking your taste buds to the sun-drenched hills of Tuscany in this fresh and light summer luncheon class. Immerse yourself in the bold, earthy flavors that define this iconic Italian region as you learn to master the art of preparing a Tuscan-style luncheon. Your guide is CCKC Head Instructor and Executive Chef Melissa Houston, who has travelled the globe cooking and teaching for over 30 years. Hailing from the West Coast, Melissa uses her wealth of culinary experience to put her own unique spin on regional and global cuisine that is both healthy and delicious.

Your journey begins with a refreshing Panzanella Salad. You’re tossing together ripe Tomatoes, Cucumbers, and Red Onions in a tangy and sharp dressing with hunks of crusty bread and aromatic Basil. Next you will be putting together a creamy Tomato and Eggplant Bisque, a light summer soup perfect for pairing with salads or heavier dishes. For your main, we will roast Artichoke Bruschetta Chicken with Sunflower Greens and Lemon Oil. Chef Melissa is sharing her secrets to achieving perfectly seasoned chicken complemented by the bright flavors of Artichokes and zesty Lemon Oil drizzle. Finish with freshly shaved, nutty Parmesan. No Italian meal is complete without a sweet finish. To cap off your afternoon, let’s make a light Panna Cotta: a sweetened yogurt flavored with local Honey and adorned with Fresh Berries.

Join us for a relaxing afternoon of Italian summer classics. Buon appetito!
