Catch of the Day - Fabulous Seafood to Add to Your Menu
@cynnims
Sat. July 25 | 6 pm | Demo Class

This demo class with Chef Cynthia Nims shares the seafood spotlight with some options that aren’t among the top varieties we most often see in seafood recipes. Shrimp, salmon, and cod—they get plenty of attention. Here we give some love to rich black cod (AKA sablefish), flaky rockfish, meaty lingcod (not really a cod!) and versatile squid (not just for fried calamari). It’ll be a tasty opportunity to try something a bit different and add to your seafood-cooking repertoire.

Menu:
Ginger-Soy Black Cod with Soba Noodles
Lingcod with Olives, Orange and Harissa
Pan-Seared Squid with Herbs and Capers
Crumb-Topped Rockfish with Dijon-Chive Slaw
