About

We love to make grain bowls - they're delicious, beautiful, and endlessly adaptable. In this course, we'll cover a variety of different grains and how to cook them to build a hearty base for bowls. But a grain bowl is not built on grain alone. We'll share guidelines to prep and store various other elements - proteins, vegetables, and both creamy and crunchy toppings - as well as tips for how to arrange them, to make your grain bowls as beautiful as they are delicious. You'll learn how to make our Chimichurri Couscous Bowl, Skillet Burrito Bowl, and Italian Harvest Bowl, as well as how to mix and match ingredients to build your own bowls.

Quick Breads

The term “quick bread” indicates just that: a bread that can be prepared quickly, thanks to baking powder and baking soda’s chemical-leavening abilities. These ingredients allow you to bypass the proofing and rising steps of yeasted breads, minimizing quick breads’ prep time and maximizing their popularity at breakfasts and brunches. You may not have to worry about the rise, but there’s still lots of technique involved in turning out impressive banana bread, scones, or muffins. In this class, we’ll teach you how to measure and mix your way to perfect quick breads with recipes for Banana Bread, Blueberry Muffins, and British Scones.

Pan-Seared Salmon

Pan-searing salmon sounds straightforward. But the normal technique—season a few skinless fillets, then cook it in some oil in a hot pan until nicely brown and still pink on the inside—leaves you with unevenly-cooked fish with a tough exterior. We wanted a technique that took advantage of the intense heat of the skillet to produce a golden-brown, ultracrisp crust on salmon fillets while keeping their interiors moist. This class also includes links to our Mango-Mint Salsa and Cilantro-Mint Chutney, both of which are prefect accompaniments to salmon.

Sesame-Crusted Salmon with Lemon and Ginger

For a lively dish in which the salmon is cooked perfectly and it and the sesame are offset with bolder, brighter flavors, we brine our fillets to ensure that each piece is seasoned and remains moist after cooking. The sesame seeds themselves are brined and toasted to bring out their flavor. Then we use a tahini paste that has been “thickened” with citrus juice to glue the citrus zest, scallions, ginger, and spice to the fillet. The resulting dish has the rich flavors of salmon and sesame seeds along with pops of ginger, citrus, and spice. In this recipe, the contrasting flavors shine through—and the last bite is as interesting as the first.
