New Class!
In this class, we are going to prepare and enjoy two very different cookies: Moroccan cookies, a crunchy cookie with dried fruit and nuts, and a walnut cookie sandwich, a couple of nutty cookies connected with decadent rum cream and then partially dipped in chocolate. Both will be a real treat and will help to bring a real Christmas spirit to your home.
Note: Suitable for vegetarians
Join us from the comfort of your home on Zoom and learn from Czech-born Chef Tom Slepicka in these hands-on interactive classes.
Slepicka graduated from culinary school in his hometown, Brno, located in the Czech Republic. While still in school, he established a successful full-service catering company which operated in the Czech Republic, Slovak Republic, and Austria. Slepicka moved to the U.S. with his wife in 2014. From 2015-16, he operated the Czech Deli at the NewBo City Market. The goal of his courses is to make tasty and high-quality meals accessible to everyone.
Our 3rd Christmas Series consists of 8 classes with 5 brand new classes as well as 3 of the most successful Christmas classes from last year. This is a great opportunity for those that didn’t participate last year to still have a chance to try the most popular classes from last year! Those who participated last year will benefit not just from the 5 brand-new classes, but also from the opportunity to refresh the more technically demanding classes, such as Vánočka.
