Squash Spectacular: Transforming Veggies into Victories!

Squash season is upon us so let home cooks Michelle and Rhonda help you expand your repertoire for delicious ways to use squash! Learn about preparation techniques using two winter squash varieties in some of our favorite recipes. Join us to expand your knowledge and gain confidence in choosing and preparing squash in unique and tasty ways. We bet you’ll be saying, “oh my gourd” as you experience the flavors, textures and cooking techniques used in this class!

Now, before you take the plunge, we kindly ask you to take note of our Requirements and Policies:

1. Special dietary needs or restrictions? Let us know at least 5 days in advance so we can work our culinary magic and accommodate your needs. Sadly, we can't perform miracles on the day of the class.  

2. The art of capturing memories! Yes, we'll be capturing some epic moments during the class. By signing up, you're giving us permission to snap photos or record videos of your mastering skills. Don't worry; your talent might just end up on our social media, advertising, or other promotional materials. Fame awaits!

3. Class cancellations: We understand that life happens, but please let us know in advance if you can't make it. You're welcome to transfer your registration to a lucky friend of your choice, but do give us a heads-up.

4. The Brick Kitchen reserves the right to cancel classes. Fear not, we'll notify you promptly and offer a full refund or credit because we're committed to making your experience exceptional.

On the day of the class:

• Check in at the front counter upon arrival.

• We'll be diligently sanitizing, washing, and disinfecting all tools, workstations, seating areas, and equipment. Safety is our top priority.

This is a  "hands-on" class so here are a few additional tidbits of information:

• Bring your own apron if you wish to flaunt your culinary fashion sense. We will have some for borrowing if needed.

• Clean hands are happy hands. Wash those paws for a solid 20 seconds before touching any food. We'll provide food safety gloves for you to wear while handling ingredients if needed. Safety first!

• Closed-toe shoes are a must for your safety. Let's keep those toes intact and ready to dance in celebration of your newfound skills.

• Hair matters, especially in the kitchen. If your luscious locks reach shoulder length or beyond, kindly secure them in a way that requires no touch-ups during class. Safety and hygiene, folks!

Join us at The Brick Kitchen, located at 330 1st Street East, Independence, Iowa 50644, for this fun culinary adventure.
