Celebrating 44 years
of teaching
My students have taught me as much as I have taught
them since my first class in New York in 1966. I have enjoyed their enthusiasm and camaraderie as
they learn and share in preparing every kind of food. I hear from many, who still use the recipes they have
cherished for years. Here in the
hills and valleys of southwestern Wisconsin I continue the same tradition that
took me from New York to Chicago to here.
I use locally grown organic foods whenever possible. I joyfully cook the
way I learned, close to the seasonal foods, with the bonus that here they are mostly
organic and locally grown. My goal
is for you to connect to the land through food by cooking with all your senses.
Each class
covers know how and the many techniques for your everyday cooking. I use
recipes as a guide and share different approaches in preparing them.
Bon Appetit!
