Last night I had the great pleasure of attending the inaugural Farmhouse Cooking Class at Shadle Farm in Durham, CT at the home of Chef Mark & Ami Shadle.

Their new dinner series includes a tour of the Shadle Farm property and their 1730's Farmhouse.  The cooking classes occur by the fire in the main dining room. 

Our select menu last night? 

* Wilted Watercress, Daikon & Cabbage Roll with a spicy horseradish sauce .
( wild harvested ingredients from property)

* Creamy Cauliflower Bisque with four flavors
Caramelized red onion, Curried tofu, barley & apple

*Cornmeal Crusted Tempeh
with a yellow pepper glaze & starlight spinach

* Raw Live Cacao Truffles & Coconut Tapioca
with fresh fruit

 

(oh, and BTW . . . for those of you who are wondering why I took the video down and then put it back up again . . . . Well, let's just say that I hadn't quite had enough coffee yet this morning.  My T's and H's were all over the place.  Or not)
