You grew them; now use them.

Let a professional chef from Calihan Catering Company of Chicago  show you that vegetables are more than just good for you.  Learn what you can do with common veggies and fruits to make your food a work of art.

 

Member Kate Kaczala of Callihan Catering brought Chef Dante and sous-chef Rachel to demonstrate some of the techniques used by this superb catering company.  The chef was enthusiastic about microgreen gardening which he uses  often in his garnishes.  His very ' hands on' presentation was exciting--and delicious-- as club members all were able to taste the various microgreens, as well as  a soup shooter, sugared flowers on flourless brownies among the various items displayed.  He suggested many different ideas and recipes to inspire us in our own entertaining.

The slide show below  will give you a little taste of this wonderful program.
