18 Reasons: Simply Summer: Seafood

August 25 @ 6:00 pm - 9:30 pm
A bowl of mixed seafood salad with vegetables is pictured above details for a Simply Summer: Seafood class on August 25, 6-9:30 PM, instructed by Gracie Schatz.

In the Summer, we tend to crave food that is a little lighter, that comes together quickly, that is fresh and satisfying. For Chef Gracie, this often means whipping together a Salad Nicoise – one of her all time favorite Summer meals. We’ve put together a class that will leave you with the skills to create a gorgeous Summer seafood meal with minimal effort and maximum enjoyment.

Students will start by poaching fresh, local, albacore tuna in olive oil with crushed garlic, bay and lemon – the tuna will be used in the aforementioned Salad Nicoise and the oil will be transformed into a delectable vinaigrette. Learn to perfectly poach shrimp, make a quick batter to deep fry squid and smelt to crispy perfection, craft a tangy aioli and finish the class by stuffing a whole trout with chili lime butter and roasting it in the oven before adorning it with a blistered corn salsa. Any one of these dishes could be the centerpiece of your Summer feast but we’ll get to cook and enjoy all of them together!
