November 17 - Olive Oil Tasting and Seminar - Sponsored by Monini Olive Oil
Cooking classes are a fun way to learn, from the basics of Italian home cooking meals to some more advanced culinary techniques. At the Mediterranean Flavors hands-on cooking classes and dinners you ‘ll be actually preparing a 3 course meal guided at all steps by expert chefs. You’ll be able to make the recipes yourself in a fun and relaxed environment so that you can duplicate them in your own kitchen at home.
While tables are set for dinner an “aperitivo” will be served, featuring Prosecco and Italian finger foods.
A sit down dinner will follow to enjoy both your preparations and interesting conversations while sipping pairing wines.
The 6 event series will feature 5 menus and a final grand tasting of olive Oil. Each event will allow you to discover the many virtues and applications of Italian olive oil, this wonderful ingredient that is at the center of the Mediterranean diet.
Attending 3 cooking classes will guarantee free of charge participation to the Olive Oil grand tasting.
November, 17 - OLIVE OIL TASTING AND SEMINAR – Olive Oil Master Marco Petrini and Executive Chef Andrea Tiberi
Sponsored By Monini Olive Oil
from 6.30 pm to 10 pm
Epicurean Center – 22 E 38th Street (between Madison Ave. & Park Ave.)
After a brief overview of the characteristics of various olive varieties and processing methods, the participants will be instructed on the basis of tasting and understanding different types of Extra Virgin Olive Oils. The method used is the one officially authorized and performed in a professional olive oil panel, but with a more simple yet adequate approach easy to understand by an average consumer. Positive attributes of the oils, as well as defects, will be analyzed. At the end of the class some of the oils will be used to dress and compliment very typical Italian specialty dishes that will be prepared by our Chef.
