In this hands on class, instructor Paul will teach you the essential techniques for making heart-warming, slow cooked dishes with ease. You will learn the basic principles of braising, and how to extract the most flavors from your meat through this timeless cooking process. Paul will also cover essentials like breaking down a whole chicken (which you’ll practice in class!), and money-saving tips for getting the most out of inexpensive cuts of meat. Class participants will work in groups to make Chicken Cacciatore, and Paul will also demonstrate and provide tasting samples one of his favorite family recipes- Braised Ribs and Sauerkraut. We’ll all sit down to enjoy our delicious meal the end of class in the company of new friends! This class is BYOB.

Paul is a native Chicagoan, born and raised on the south side. Driven by a compulsion to eat every meal like it’s his last, he was forced to be a student of food, cooking and culture. With his large family upbringing and thirst for food knowledge and experiences, he enjoys recreating family recipes and applying those basic techniques in order to grow his repertoire and cook more advanced and worldly fair. He wouldn’t classify himself as a cook and doesn’t have the training of a chef, but what he lacks in degrees, he makes up for in exuberance, joy and the ability to rebound from making so many culinary mistakes that he was bound to trip over the best way to cook something.
