Holiday Entertaining

Add some sizzle to your holiday season with our exhilarating “Holiday Entertaining” cooking class led by the charismatic Chef Joel! This isn’t just a cooking class, it’s a culinary party where you’ll learn to whip up an array of festive dishes that are as stunning as they are scrumptious!

First up, we’re taking the humble butternut squash and giving it a festive makeover with our Roasted Butternut Squash Bisque! Adorned with drunken cranberries and swirled with ginger cream, this soup is a holiday showstopper that will have your guests begging for the recipe.

Next, get set to tantalize your taste buds with our Chicken Liver and Bourbon Pâté. Paired with tangy cornichons and fresh, buttery breadsticks, this dish is a delightful dance of flavors that’ll leave everyone smacking their lips in delight.

But wait, there’s more! We’re stacking up the deliciousness with our Portobello, Eggplant, and Roasted Pepper Napoleons. Layered with creamy goat cheese and fragrant basil, these little towers of goodness are the epitome of gourmet holiday entertaining.

And who can resist our Herbed Lamb and Beef Cocktail Meatballs? Glazed with red currant, these bite-sized wonders are the perfect blend of savory and sweet – a guaranteed crowd-pleaser!

No holiday feast is complete without a comforting side dish, and our Creamy Parmesan Orzo is just the ticket. Rich, cheesy, and oh-so-satisfying, it’s the perfect accompaniment to any main course.

To top it all off, we’re diving into the decadence with our Macerated Berries served with Chocolate Crème Chantilly. It’s a heavenly combination that’ll make your holiday dessert course unforgettable!
