Love mushrooms and want to branch out beyond pre-sliced baby bellas from the grocery store? This is the class for you! St. Louis is home to loads of gorgeous gourmet mushrooms, and here we'll feature varieties from Ozark Forest Mushrooms. We’ll start by reviewing a variety of different mushrooms and discussing flavor and texture differences, uses for different types of mushrooms, and best buying practices. Next, we’ll divide into groups to cook mushroom-based dishes before sitting down to dinner to taste everyone’s creations. On the menu: 

• Lion’s mane mushroom fritters with green herb sauce

• Ricotta & shiitake gnocchi with browned butter sauce

• Oyster mushroom tacos with chiles and avocado crema

• Mushroom tart with chevre & black pepper pastry

Classes are BYOB. This class can accommodate vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free students. Please leave a note at checkout if this applies to you or anyone in your group.
