Frugal Weekend Entertainment Option #1
Take a FREE Technique Class at Williams Sonoma
Sunday, January 10
Start off the New Year by learning
something new!
Join Williams Sonoma for the first of a three-
part series on Essential Cooking Techniques,
where they’ll help you master several basic
cooking methods. The first class on Sunday
will show you how to braise, a technique that
transforms relatively tough cuts of meats and
fibrous vegetables into tender, full-flavored
fare. You’ll learn which foods are the best for
braising , what pans to use, and sample
some delicious recipes.
You’ll want to reserve your spot since class size is limited.
