About this Event
Explore the Nantucket farmers market with Chef Jason as we meet the people behind the produce during a VIP tour. Students will learn a variety of skills to best utilize what the market has to offer. Each week will feature a different market-based lunch and cooking technique that may include: pickling, preserving, juicing, roasting, grilling and more.
In this class each student will gather a bounty of products from the market to create a lunch while using senses to see, feel, smell and taste the process along the way. Each participant will create their own farm-fresh lunch that will typically include a salad and some sort of light protein based entree. Menus will vary based on seasonal availability of ingredients.
Example dishes include:
Grilled carrot salad with brown butter carrot vinaigrette
Pickled and poached root vegetables
Roasted chicken with lightly sauted farm produce
Pan seared local fish with onion soubise and chive spaetzle
Wine and beer will be available for purchase on site for guests age 21 and over.
Minimum Student Requirements & Important Information
The Nantucket Culinary Center reserves the right to cancel any classes where the minimium student requirement is not met. If a class is canceled due to low attendance, participants will be notified via email 48 hours in advance of the scheduled event and offered a discount toward a future class.
We can only accommodate dietary restrictions and allergies with advance notice. Please email within 48 hours of your ticketed event if someone in your party needs accommodations.
In our classes, you’ll roll up your sleeves and team up with a few new foodie friends (small groups or pairs) at a shared workstation. Our instructors keep things lively, fun, and hands-on. You’ll be standing, chopping, stirring and tasting—so bring your energy, wear comfy closed-toe shoes and tie back long hair.
Classes run about 2 hours unless noted otherwise. And the best part? You get to enjoy the delicious dish you’ve created together, so come hungry!
