Summer’s End, New Beginnings

Summer may be over, but September offers more than one way to celebrate the abundant harvest, including a continued stream of delectable edibles from local sources. In the first class at the new location of In Good Taste Cooking School, instructor Barb Randall demonstrates that the end of summer doesn’t mean the end of local eating. The class, “Harvest Abundance,” will utilize only ingredients grown or produced within 100 miles of In Good Taste. In addition to preparing the seasonal menu, Barb will share recipes, tips for sustainable eating, and where to find the best meats and vegetables.
The menu kicks off with Celebration Oysters and a creamy Sweet Corn Soup. The entrée, a hearty Lamb Stew with Glazed Turnips and Pearl Onions, features lamb from nearby SuDan farms. There will also be Fried Green Tomatoes with Fresh Corn Salsa, Green and Yellow Pole Beans Provencal, and a 1-2-3-4 Cake with Blackberries.
Celebrate the beginning of fall, local eating, and the new location all together on Saturday, September 26th at 6:00 PM. For more information, and to register for the class, visit our website at http://www.ingoodtaste.com/ or call (503) 248-2015.
