We are headed down to visit with Spike and his team at Woodberry Kitchen. We are doing a workshop on December 7th from 11 am to 2:30 pm, geared towards those who work behind the bar: both baristas and bartenders. Though focused on beverages, the material being covered will apply to preparations in the kitchen as well. The lessons learned will then be applied at an intimate cocktail party on December 8th.
Topics which we will cover:
– Agar Clarification
– Utilizing Gellan
– Hot Foams
– Extraction and flavor
– Alcohol and aroma
– Carbonation
– and a few black box ideas. (You do know they have a wood-fired oven…)
The cocktail party will feature a number of tasty libations and scrumptious delectables. These two events are open to the public at a cost of $100/person for the workshop and $50/person for the cocktail party. If you wish to attend both, which we certainly hope you do, the cost is $125. Reservations can be made by calling Woodberry Kitchen at (410) 464-8000.
