Channel your inner bartender and learn to craft your own bitters for cocktails and/or savory applications. You will be provided with a brief history of bitters while you sample some cocktails featuring the bitters you will be making. Then team up with classmates to produce five bitters varieties in this two-part class. Finish the class with recipes, suggestions for using the bitters, and your own set of dropper bottles of the finished products. For ages 21+.

Focaccia, and its Tuscan sibling, Schiacciata, are two of the most flavorful breads in the world. Both, simply put, are dough with something on it (usually but not always), baked in a pan. In this 2-night, hands-on baking class, we'll be mastering the mixing of natural fermented doughs: whole-grain country-style dough and the basic focaccia bianca. These breads can accompany almost any dish and are open to a combination of sweet or savory toppings, unadorned with an olive oil, or dipped in marinara. Experience these soft, honeycombed breads with a crackly, toasty crust in your kitchen tonight!
