Overview

In this hands-on cooking class, you'll learn the techniques and ingredients that make cooking and shopping locally so healthy and delicious. This is a true farm-to-table class - Mary shops from the Union Square farmer's market which are the best NYC restaurant chef's shop. But since hacking a butternut squash or what to do with ingredients like pak choi can seem daunting, Mary will guide you through each step of the cooking process with expert tips and tricks. With a focus on plant-based ingredients, and recipes that change with the seasons, this class is perfect for anyone looking to explore new and healthy ways of cooking. Whether you're an experienced cook or a beginner, you'll leave this class feeling inspired and empowered to create your own farmer's market-inspired dishes at home, plus you'll take home some granola that you learn to make! Book your spot in Mary's cooking class today for a one-of-a-kind culinary experience!
