Old World Italian Handmade Pasta - Flour, Water, Love: Hand-Rolled Noodles

In this hands-on pasta class, students slow everything down and return to the most traditional way of making pasta. Just flour, water, time, and care. No machines. No shortcuts. Just hands, feel, and connection. Chef Keri will guide students through mixing and kneading a simple pasta dough from scratch, showing how intuition and touch are just as important as technique. From there, students learn to hand-form three classic long pasta shapes, each tied to a specific Italian region and story:
• Pici – thick, rustic Tuscan noodles with a comforting, chewy bite
• Strozzapreti – twisted strands woven with folklore and history
• Sagne ’Ncannulate – beautifully spiraled pasta from southern Italy, made to lovingly hold sauce

While students are shaping their pasta, Chef Keri offers stories and context for each shape, connecting the pasta in your hands to the regions, people, and kitchens it came from. Chef Keri demonstrates a simple, soulful tomato butter sauce, emphasizing how uncomplicated ingredients can create rich, comforting flavor. Towards the end of the class, students will cook and enjoy some of the pasta they’ve made, gathering around the table to taste the difference that fresh, handmade noodles make.

We'll end the session by enjoying the pasta you’ve created together—and feel free to BYOB to pair your wine or beverage of choice with the meal. These simple, flavorful recipes are sure to become a staple in your kitchen for years to come.

You’ve asked for it and now its here! Spend your day with Brian Knowles as he teaches you how to make four breakfast favorites using your sourdough discard.

Sourdough Discard Buttermilk Biscuits have more tang and complex flavors than a traditional flaky biscuit. These biscuits are great for breakfast or even dessert just by adding bit of sugar. Brian will share how to add discard to many recipes as this is his own buttermilk biscuit recipe he adapted to use discard.

These Sourdough Discard Bagels are chewy, golden brown and easy to make. The sky is the limit for toppings. Everything bagel seasoning, poppy or sesame seeds, salt, asiago cheese, maybe even cinnamon crunch. Your friends and family will be amazed that you made these bagels from scratch. Slice these bagels before freezing and you have a quick breakfast, just pop in the toaster and you are out the door.

Sourdough Discard English Muffins are so easy they don’t even require a stand mixer-just one bowl! These no knead English muffins are tender and soft with a golden brown exterior. Make a batch and enjoy them with butter and homemade jam, or make your own breakfast sandwiches – bacon, egg and cheese anyone?! You can make these the same day or for even more flavor let the dough cold ferment overnight. 

Sourdough Discard Cinnamon Crunch Toasty Crackers are a cracker version of the popular breakfast cereal. Lots of cinnamon and sugar coat these discard crackers. These are a favorite in the FAB kitchen and never last long after they come out of the oven.

Knife Skills Class - Multi-Cut Pineapple & Chicken Stir Fry

If you’ve ever wondered why chefs cut ingredients differently—or wanted your cooking to look, feel, and taste more professional—this class is for you. In this immersive, hands-on knife skills workshop, you’ll learn how precise cuts affect cooking time, texture, and flavor, then put those skills to work in a fast, flavorful stir fry.

We’ll start with knife safety, grip, and technique before moving through real-world prep: breaking down a bone-in chicken with a boning knife, mastering classic vegetable cuts, and tackling pineapple with three different knives. Along the way, you’ll practice push cuts, rock chops, bias slicing, julienne, bâtonnet, dice, and mince—learning not just how to cut, but why each cut matters.

The class culminates in a wok-fired pineapple–chicken stir fry, where you’ll organize your mise en place by cooking time, control heat to avoid steaming, and layer textures for a balanced, restaurant-style dish. You’ll leave with sharper knife skills, better kitchen confidence, and a clear understanding of how technique translates directly to better food.

What You’ll Learn

• Proper knife grip, safety, and cutting board setup

• How to use chef, paring, boning, and bread knives with purpose

• Classic cuts for meat, vegetables, fruit, and aromatics (with measurements)

• How cut size affects cooking time and texture

• Mise en place organization and stir-fry timing

• Knife care and smart practice techniques

What You’ll Make
Multi-Cut Pineapple–Chicken Stir Fry served over rice, featuring multiple cuts of chicken, vegetables, aromatics, and pineapple—all prepared by you.

Perfect for home cooks who want stronger fundamentals, cleaner cuts, and food that cooks more evenly and tastes better because of it. No prior knife skills required—just curiosity and a willingness to chop. 🔪🍍🍗

At the end of class, we’ll all enjoy the fruits of our labors, followed by a FABulous Surprise Dessert!
