Class Description
Tonight’s class is focused on a decedent menu of world class ingredients inspired by California's renowned Napa Valley. 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.

Our opener is a classic Caesar Salad. Fresh green romaine is tossed in a creamy dressing with flavors of lemon, fresh cracked pepper, garlic, and hints of salty anchovies topped with warm, fresh-made garlic croutons and crisp bacon. Your second dish of the night is a phenomenal favorite for any coastal menu- Lobster Mac & Cheese. Comfort meets elegance in this warm and flavorful baked dish. We will be using a rich blend of Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Gruyere, and Parmesan with Lobster Tails, spices, and herbs to make this sensational side dish.  Next, our star of the show- seared New York Strip Steak in Creamy Herb Butter. Chef Melissa will guide you on how to create perfect pan-seared steaks basted in rich butter flavored with garlic, marjoram, thyme, and fresh chopped rosemary.  We can’t possibly waste a teaspoon of that heavenly butter, so after you’ve cooked your steak, we’re tossing in a medley of fresh chopped vegetables to cook down in the butter sauce. Finally, conclude your Napa Valley feast with a decadent Chocolate Mousse, a rich and indulgent dessert made of only four ingredients! Truly a take-home recipe to impress your friends and family at your next dinner party.
 
Whether you're a seasoned foodie or a culinary novice, this class promises an unforgettable evening of hands-on learning and a true taste of Napa Valley's epicurean delights.
