Program Description
Event Details
Cooks and Books
Join your fellow cookbook-obsessed-peeps as we read, cook, chat and EAT! We'll meet once a month on the 2nd Thursday from 7-9 PM. Each month, we'll read the same cook book or choose a common ingredient or cuisine. We'll each cook something to share and gather to eat and talk!
There’s something sublime about combining sweet and savory flavors. This month, we're giving our taste buds a thrill. Combing these elements creates complex and appealing taste sensations, as the contrasting flavors enhance and round each other out. Sweetness can soften the intensity of savory ingredients, while savory notes add depth to sweetness. Classic examples include salted caramel, peanut butter and jelly, and teriyaki sauce, with common pairings featuring ingredients like fruit and cheese.
Find inspiration on one of these sites, conduct you own research, or mine your recipe boxes and cookbooks!
