Cooking Across Asia
Authentic Asian cooking doesn't need to be intimidating anymore!  Come roll up your sleeves with Chef Diane and learn the techniques to produce authentic cuisine covering a number of important traditions and cultures.  From China you'll make Peking Capital Sauce Pork Ribbons, from Thailand you'll make Gai Tung (Braised Chicken in Spices), from Vietnam you'll make Hot & Sour Shrimp Soup, and from Malaysia you will make Ayam Limau Purut (Chicken with Lime Loaf).  Four countries in 3 hours?  Not bad for a Wednesday night!  Includes the cost of food and supplies. 

NOTE:  We have opened a waitlist for this class but no additional classes will be added to the schedule.  This waitlist will only be used to fill any spots cancelled prior to class date.
