Simple Summer Cooking with Moosewood Restaurant

Are you passionate about eating good, healthy foods and want some inspiration for your culinary explorations? Summer is a time when the menu is lighter and the accent is on quickly prepared, refreshing foods, including stir-fries, salads, and chilled soups. Learn how to take advantage of the wealth of local produce available this summer, whether it’s from your own garden, a farmers’ market, or other sources.

In this workshop, you discover the wide palette of herbs, spices, vegetables, whole grains, and vegetarian protein sources that reflect the multiethnic, innovative cuisine at the center of Moosewood’s cooking. David Hirsch has been involved with Moosewood for more than 30 years and is the author of The Moosewood Restaurant Kitchen Garden, a gardening book for cooks. Coauthor of all 12 Moosewood Collective cookbooks, he offers tips and background information on the entire spectrum of vegetarian cooking. Expand your menu repertoire, increase your confidence in the kitchen, and savor the opportunity to enjoy all of the foods prepared in class.

Note This is primarily a cooking demonstration workshop. Closed-toe shoes are required for all workshop sessions.
