Soup Fanatic - Three Soups, Three Techniques

Warm up your kitchen skills with our hands-on Essential Soup Workshop! Soups are the foundation of comfort food, and in this class, you'll master three distinct classics, learning the techniques that will make your bowls burst with flavor. What You'll Learn: You'll work side-by-side with our instructor to prepare a trio of incredible soups, covering crucial skills like: Building a Flavorful Base: Learn the secrets to deep, savory flavor, including proper mirepoix technique and crafting rich, homemade stocks (or how to elevate store-bought options). The Ultimate Chicken Noodle Soup: Go beyond the can and create a classic with perfectly tender chicken, fresh vegetables, and springy noodles in an aromatic broth that truly nourishes the soul. Hearty Minestrone (Vegetarian Focus): Master this robust Italian vegetable soup. You'll learn how to layer textures and flavors using seasonal vegetables, beans, pasta, and herbs for a satisfying, nutrient-packed meal. Rich & Creamy Seafood Chowder: Discover the art of a perfect roux and a velvety texture. We'll show you how to gently cook fish and shellfish to avoid toughness and create a chowder that rivals any seaside restaurant. Class Details: This is a fully hands-on experience. You’ll chop, stir, simmer, and taste every step of the way. All ingredients, equipment, and recipes will be provided, and you'll get to enjoy generous portions of all three soups at the end of the class (or take them home to share!). No prior cooking experience is necessary—just an appetite for great soup!
