Two-Part Series! Market to Table
Note: Attendance to both classes is recommended, but not required. Each class sold separately.
Part II: Back in the Kitchen — The Iberian Kitchen: Learn about the heartwarming culinary traditions of the Iberian Peninsula, where fresh, high-quality ingredients and time-honored techniques create simple, comforting meals. Inspired by our visit to Portugalia Marketplace, we’ll prepare a menu that brings the warm, vibrant flavors of Iberian home cooking to your table. With its miles of coastline, Iberian cuisine celebrates the abundance of seafood through dishes like casual conservas (tinned fish), soul-warming rice creations, and hearty fish-and-potato specialties that are staples in homes from north to south. This class is perfect for seafood lovers and anyone looking to embrace the comforting, regional flavors and timeless traditions of Spanish and Portuguese kitchens.
Cooking Classes: Remember to come hungry, because you will leave with a full belly. Please don’t think that you have to be a great cook to take any of these classes. All you really need is to enjoy spending time in the kitchen, or desire to increase your enjoyment in the kitchen. Joining one of our cooking classes will be a fun and engaging experience and change your relationship toward food for the better. During class, each participant will receive recipe printouts, shopping and preparation checklists, and plenty to eat. Classes are by reservation only. Only 12 reservations per class. Please let us know about any special dietary needs.
Cancellation Policy: Because seating is limited and food is purchased in advance, we cannot guarantee full refunds for cancellations made less than a week prior to the event. In the event you must cancel late, we will attempt to fill your seat with someone from our waiting list. Please email cancellation notices.
What Should I Bring? Please dress comfortably and come with a smile and eagerness to learn. Small group classes are taught by both demonstration and hands-on participation, so you can choose to participate as much or as little as you feel comfortable. We will provide all the tools you need to participate, including aprons, cutting boards, knives, etc.
The School: Surrounded by stainless steel, thick white marble, commercial grade appliances, and artful accents, you will learn to cook in a rather stylish way at Joyful Kitchen in Wellesley. Joyful Kitchen has a state-of-the-art kitchen-featuring top of the line cookware and appliances from Sub-Zero & Wolf.
