This summer Pennington visits BSC for two special guest appearances (the other class is “Preserving and Canning Basics” on August 16). Urban Pantry is a smart, concise guide to creating a well stocked pantry in your home. Over sixty creative recipes take advantage of local ingredients, eliminating wasteful kitchen practices and making the most out of the food you buy or grow. Pennington will share valuable tips for growing greens, aromatic herbs and edible flowers. Her menu for this evening will include: Apricot Chickpea Salad, Barley & Sweet Potato Salad, Lentils with Mint & Beets, and White Bean & Preserved Lemon. Complementary wine pairing. $55
From Viet Nam to Thailand, Pranee uses authentic recipes for outside grilling flavored by Asian sauces and herbs. Spice up seafood, chicken and pork with these “grate” dishes: Bun Cha (rice noodle bowl with grilled lemongrass, Asian herbs and nuoc cham ), Goong Pao (grilled spicy shrimp with cilantro-lime dipping sauce), Bap nuong Mo Hanh (grilled corn with scallion oil) and Satay Gai (skewered chicken with peanut sauce and cucumber salad). Complementary wine pairing. $50
Be honest, when grilling fish, does it stick? Fall apart? Brett shares basic fish grilling information from seafood selection to cooking with successful results. It’s a seafood fest on the deck while you enjoy Char-Grilled Oysters with Garlic Butter, Grilled Glazed Salmon Filet with Green Goddess Dressing and a Grilled Romaine Salad. The final note? Grilled Fruit. Complementary wine pairing. $45 Crisp, thirst-quenching patio sipping varietals for relief from the heat. From white to red (yes…red) they’re user friendly with food and friends. Ongoing pourings and presentations -- on the deck with waterview and sunset -- allow you to arrive anytime between 5-7:30 p.m. Experience five wine samples with complementary cheeses at this casual, fun, social event. You can also pair this activity with special summer grilled dinners that are available for purchase on the deck…Baja Fish Tacos, Chipotle Cream, Guacamole, and Jicama Slaw. $12 for Fridays Uncorked, grilled dinners additional. No registration required for either activity. Lucia’s colorful personality and enthusiastic passion for her native cuisine enlivens the evening with a celebration of authentic Mexican Tacos. Señora Lucia dishes up traditional tacos for the most satisfying summer suppers. Short of traveling to our southern neighbor, embellish the flavors of Mexico in her Flour Tortillas with Ground Beef and Potato, Corn Tortillas with Chicken and Molé and Vegetarian Tacos with Nopal (cactus), Tomato and Onion. Chilled cerveza served as a thirst quencher! Complementary beer sampling. $45 Lamb reigns supreme in French gastronomy and Chef Thierry demonstrates how it equally rules on the American grill when cooked properly. He skillfully debones, marinates and grills it to perfection and serves it with Horseradish Sauce, and a Grilled Vegetable Salad, (eggplant, red onion, etc.). Pears in Wine Sauce conclude the evening. Très Bien… Complementary wine pairing. $50 The garden bounty allows you to explore new culinary standards with Leanne’s delicious suggestions. Toss the old-fashioned squash casseroles for some upbeat vegetable dishes bursting with unforgettable flavor in Barley Risotto with Eggplant and Roasted Cherry Tomatoes, An Especially Good Corn Pudding (that’s really the name of the recipe!), Watermelon and Heirloom Tomato Gazpacho, Beetroot Gratin baked with Roquefort, and Barbeque-Spiced Sweet Onion Rings. Complementary wine pairing. $45
