Classic Chefs: Irma Rombauer and The Joy Of Cooking with Cortney
 
This year we’ll be offering our Classic Chef’s series, featuring one influential chef each month.  Learn about how each of the featured chefs have contributed to cuisine and how we eat today. This month, on International Women’s Day, we’ll focus on Irma Rombauer. As author of world-famous The Joy of Cooking, few women have contributed as much to the food industry. When the homemaker was widowed in the early 1930s, she took half of the money left to her and self-published 3,000 copies of her book. It is now one of the most-printed cookbooks in the U.S. and has sold more than 18 million copies worldwide. In this class we’ll examine the methods and techniques, then put them into practice. This is a hands-on class. This class is taught in our 2x4 format – we’ll split up into groups of 2 and each twosome will tackle one recipe.

Clarified Butter/Brown Butter/Brown Butter Asparagus
Garlic Parmesan Croutons/Classic Caesar Salad
