Summer Tomato Can Jam + Pasta Supper
Juicy and ripe tomatoes have finally arrived at the market! Now is the time to dust off that big canning pot, and put up a batch of summery goodness. Preserving tomatoes is a hot and messy affair best managed with a little help from our friends.
In this very hands-on, 3-hour preserving class, Shakirah Simley (founder of Slow Jams and Bi-Rite Market's 'Canner In Residence') will teach participants practical and safe applications for canning tomatoes. We will cover an introduction to canning theory and safety, as well as preserving basics. You will learn Shakirah's canning secrets and how to tackle tomatoes like a champ! Prime your pantry for "putting up":
-Crushed Summer Tomatoes (perfect for soups, curries and stews)
-Spicy Tomato Salsa (tortilla chip ready!)
After our pomodoro party, we'll have a very special fresh pasta presentation from the co-owner/pastaio of Baia Pasta, Dario Barbone. We'll gather at the end of class for Dario's fresh Cavatelli pasta and homemade Arrabiata sauce, and sip on delicious Italian wine.
Whether you're a preserving newbie or looking for new tricks, this class is suitable for all learners. Class participants will receive (3) hours of hands-on canning instruction, signature recipes, full jars of everything we make, and a serious boost of canning confidence.
There are very limited spaces and Shakirah's canning classes always sell-out quickly sign up today!
