Event Overview

Using spices and herbs is of the best ways to add incredible flavor to even the simplest of dishes, but sometimes the choices can be overwhelming! In this class, we’ll demystify your spice cupboard and give you the tools (and some great recipes) to help you confidently cook with spices in your kitchen.

Join us to learn about:


  • How to use common pantry spices and herbs such as paprika, bay leaves, cumin, and chili powder (plus a few spices you might not be familiar with!)

  • Choosing the right spices for your favorite dishes

  • Health benefits of spices

  • Spice basics, including how (and how long) to store them and the differences between whole and ground spices


Demonstration; tasting samples will be provided. Attendees will also make and take home a mini custom spice blend.

MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST

Learning together in the garden, and kitchen, does much more than put fresh, nutritious food on the table. It helps build stronger communities, connect us to cultural heritage, improve public health and create a more sustainable, resilient city. Peterson Garden Project is a not-for-profit organization, and we're looking to inspire everyone we meet to grow and cook their own food and build community. If you love the taste of a homegrown tomato, are curious about growing food yourself, or are looking for a place to learn basic home cooking skills and make new friends over delicious food— then we're looking for you!
