Class Description
It’s all Greek to us! Tonight we’re taking your taste buds to the Mediterranean with a traditional Greek dinner. Tonight’s instructor is Vicky Lara. You'll master the fundamentals of Greek cuisine and by the end of the night be able to recreate this masterpiece of a menu. Your guide is Chef Vicky Lara, who has been at the CCKC since 2007 as a Culinary Director, Instructor, and Facilitator. Chef Vicky has shared her expertise and love of cooking with thousands of people.
In this hands-on class you'll learn the art of crafting authentic Mediterranean dishes that are fresh and easy to create (and recreate at home!). Vicky will start you off with classic hummus served with pita and vegetables. Vicky will show you how easy it is to make your own hummus in just minutes, this is guaranteed to become your new snack staple. Next, we're making Tabbouleh Salad with parsley, apples, walnuts, and pomegranates. This light side dish accompanies our Souvlaki entree. Vicky will show you how to grill chicken skewers and make a to-die-for side of Tzatziki sauce- a Greek yogurt base with cucumbers, garlic, lemon juice and herbs. Vicky will also show you how to throw together Greek lemon potatoes, a versatile side dish that pairs well with a variety of protein dishes.
And no Mediterranean feast would be complete without a sweet finale, and we've got you covered with Melomakarona cookies. These soft cookies are spiced with cinnamon, orange zest, a pinch of nutmeg, then drenched in a sweet honey-citrus syrup. These cookies are simple and impressive- the way dessert should be! You’ll take the recipes and inspiration home to cook these great Mediterranean dishes in your own kitchen.
