MAY
CLASSES AND EVENTS
Deb
Normand of Debhouse Cookies
Wednesday, May 20, 2009 @ 6:30 p.m.
$30.00
You will never need to use a boxed brownie mix again, we
promise!
What makes a brownie cake-like, fudgy or chewy? Why do some
brownie recipes call for two ounces of chocolate and others
six ounces and some none at all? What effects can different
types of sugar create on your brownies? Is there any way
to remove brownies neatly from their pan? The answers to
these questions could ease your brownie making and guarantee
you will never want to use a box brownie mix again.
Please come and enjoy an evening of baking, talking about
and, naturally, taste testing a variety of "delish"
brownie recipes with us. Deb will be here to share recipes,
tips and secrets she has gained from many a batch of brownies.
There may even be homemade ice cream for a la mode lovers!

RACLETTE
PARTY GRILL
A
SWISS TRADITION
CAROLYN
HATCH
WEDNESDAY,
JUNE 10, 2009
6:30
P.M.
$40.00
Carolyn
Hatch was a teacher for seven years and her husband is a
professor at BGSU. They lived in Austria for a
year, where they learned about raclette cooking.
In the Spring, they returned to Austria where their
daughter still lives. In Carolyn's opinion, "Austria
is the crown jewel of Europe ." She is very enthusiastic
about sharing her knowledge of raclette cooking.
The
raclette tradition was created in Switzerland with its origin
dating back hundreds of years. The word raclette comes the
French and means "to
scrape." A dish, by the same name, consists of a chunk
of raclette cheese that is exposed to heat (traditionally
an open fire) and scraped off as it melts. Electric raclette
machines are now available. The melted cheese is served
as a meal with boiled potatoes, dark bread and cornichons
or other pickled vegetables..
A
raclette is ideal for any occasion: a romantic evening for
two, a leisurely family get together or a party snack. The
food can be prepared in a variety of ways. Instead of cooking
in the kitchen for your friends or family, you can be spending
time together. Have Fun! Be Creative!
