I’m very excited to be teaching an introduction to spices class called Spice 101: Spice Basics at World Spice Merchants in Seattle on January 18th.
If you find the spices in your cupboard to be a little mystifying this is the class for you. I’ll be focusing on the flavor profiles of common spices so you can learn to use them creatively and cook to your palate rather than being bound by the limitations of a recipe. I’ll also cover tips on buying, storing, grinding, and toasting spices.
If you have a jar of caraway, for example, that was purchased for a particular recipe and now you have no idea what to do with the rest of it, this class is for you! Here are the class details:

There will be many snacks and tastes of foods served during the class to illustrate the flavors of the different spices. Everyone will also receive a custom booklet with information and recipes highlighting each of the spices discussed. World Spice is offering a 10% discount on purchases made the night of the class.
I’d love to have you join me for this fun night of exploring the flavors and uses of common spices. Sign up here. Don’t delay because the class is limited to 18 people.
I cannot make it on this date, but am very interested in taking the class in the future. Please give as much advanced notice as possible so I can plan. I live in southern Oregon; it is several hundred miles but i do get to Seattle for business. If you do it in Portland please let me know.
Thanks
It turns out the class was foiled by the big snow storm 2012, so we are rescheduling it. Hopefully we’ll hold it next Wednesday the 25, but that’s not been confirmed as of yet, so I’ll post an update once I know for sure. Maybe you’ll get lucky and happen to be in Seattle on the make-up date.
I’m sure we’ll run the class again in the future. If you’re signed up for our Newsletter or like us on Facebook or add us to your Google+ circles you’ll be sure to hear about future classes.
