with CT food writer, Liz Rueven
May 19, 2025 - 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM
In this hands-on class, we’ll lighten up dinner with peak of season spring ingredients. We’ll create a four course meal that includes the stars of the spring market including asparagus, peas, rhubarb, new potatoes, young salad greens, herbs and garlic scapes.
This spring veggie focused menu includes:
- Lightened up spring barley soup with asparagus and peas
- Easy fish tacos with rhubarb salsa
- Mostly veggie potato salad
- Crisp spring greens with garlic scape dressing
This class is vegetarian, kosher friendly and BYOB. If attendees don’t eat fish, tofu will be an alternative protein source in the potato salad. We save time at end of the class to enjoy eating around a communal table. This menu highlights CT produce being harvested in mid-May; items may change slightly depending on availability of ingredients.
