CHOP, DICE and SLICE AS YOU WOK YOUR WAY THROUGH WILD RICE’S COOKING CLASSES
December’s cooking classes at Wild Rice in New Westminster proved so popular that Executive Chef Todd Bright and his Sous Chef Caroline Levy have whipped up another batch of courses designed to teach even the most kitchen-challenged the joys of preparing healthy Chinese fare from scratch.
Classes take place every Monday evening starting at 6 p.m. at the New Westminster location and each concludes with a four-course meal that you have helped to create under Chef Bright’s expert tutelage.
January highlights Vegan Chinese. You’ll learn to prepare a tasty vegan dinner that includes: seasonal vegetable spring rolls with ginger soy agave dipping sauce, curry vegetable bao with a kecap drizzle, grilled king oyster mushrooms and ending on a sweet note with five-spice carrot cake with ginger icing. Price for this course is $30 with an optional wine flight for $15.
February, March and April’s courses are available either singly for $45 (including welcome cocktail) or a Trio Pack of one class each month for only $115 which gives you a $20 discount over the individual price. Chicken Chop Chop is the theme for February. March is Focus on Fish and April will teach you all about Shell Fish Chinese-style – all those ‘ancient Chinese secrets’ to preparing succulent scallops, oysters and crab. A wine flight is not included with these classes.
As seating at all classes is very limited (December’s classes quickly sold out) pre-registration is required. To avoid disappointment, run don’t wok to sign up by calling Wild Rice New Westminster at 778-397-0028 or contacting Leann at leann@wildricebc.ca
