ONLINE CLASS: Creating Flavor-Sauces, Dressings and Flavor Potions (Copy)

September 3, 2020

$50

Flavor is the Foundation of Cooking

We all know what we like and what tastes good to us. In the coming weeks we will discover why and how to create that in all the dishes we make.

I am excited to share everything I have learned about flavor, taste and all that makes food delicious and satisfying along with giving you the tools to create alternative plant-based dishes that could change side dishes into entrées.

This is not a series of traditional cooking classes using recipes; it is a series of biweekly classes that will give you the opportunity to discover and sharpen your skills to create a food experience that is healthy, sensual and satisfying every time.

These classes will be interactive. I want to hear from you – I’ll ask you to share with me what you want to learn about enriching the flavors of the food you prepare. The adventure lies in following our senses, trying to decipher what makes a good meal great. Come with me on this adventure and explore:

How to use our senses to create flavor
Taste vs. Flavor
What is a flavor profile and how does it help us build a dish?
How do we find the perfect balance?
How do we get the full experience of the food we eat?
How to use all of our senses to fully appreciate food and recognize what is personally important to us

Class #2 – Sauces, Dressings and Flavor Potions

These are the elements that impart flavor to all dishes. Your flavor profile, whether it is Asian, Mediterranean or Moroccan, determines how you make these sauces, but we’ll talk about the elements that are the building blocks of the medium. That could be nuts, avocado, mushrooms or whatever you want for the base. Then you build your flavors with your preferred spices, herbs you have on hand or – whatever makes sense to you! Then use your sauce to top your zoodles, pasta, steak or lentils.

This week we’ll talk about aquafaba, using garden vegetables, and more…
