More classes at Sur la Table

This month I attended two other great classes at Sur La Table: Fish 101 and Vietnamese cuisine. I was concerned about cooking fish properly; because I never liked fish very much, I felt I did not know beans about how to handle and prepare the fish. Cleaning, prepping, right temperature...we learned the whole process and some great recipes in the process. Vietnamese cuisine was also very interesting, with the mix of French and Asian ingredients, fusion long time before fusion was invented. Lemongrass and dill, fish sauce and chiles, fish and pork. We cooked a pork with lemongrass that was not of this world and we learned how to make spring rolls.
