The class is going to teach you some of the basic knife skills and also practice more fundamental cuts — like a mince, dice, brunoise, bâtonnet, and julienne.  You’ll even get to practice cutting large food items like a head of cabbage, herbs, and onions.

Aside from all of the slicing and dicing, you’ll walk away with an idea of how to maintain and keep your knives sharp, along with shopping tips for cost-effective produce purchasing.

Each seat in the class is $55 per person and includes a light Mexican-style lunch and ingredients to take home for dinner.

Chef Janos Wilder and Devon Sanner happen to know quite a bit when it comes to creating an exquisite meal, and now they’re excited to share their knowledge.

During the class they’ll be explaining how to prepare dishes that feature the flavors and ingredients commonly used in the region. You’ll learn some of their favorite recipes along the way, and afterward you’ll be treated to a lunch and glasses of wine.
