Cummer Amelia is very excited to present its first-ever virtual cooking class on Thursday, November 19, at 6 p.m. with Chef’s Garden, the Cummer Museum Cafe’s catering company. Following along with Jen and Jamey from Chef’s Garden, participants will prepare Coq au Vin, a classic French stew in which chicken thighs are braised slowly in red wine and a little brandy to yield a delicious dish that includes mushrooms, bacon, carrots and onions. The entrèe will be served with roasted red potatoes and accompanied by a Haricot Vert salad. Dessert is not included but can be ordered separately. The virtual class, ingredients for two entrées, and delivery is $85, plus applicable tax. Participants will be introduced to skills as the class proceeds including essential knife skills and how to braise and sear.
