Food here food there! It seems every corner you turn you’re ushered by
a restaurant or a food joint. No one can deny its presence, not to
talk about its influence on both young and elderly. At weddings,
gatherings and parties you can hardly miss the sight of an array of
cuisines or the smell of the grills. Well, up to this point we have
all accepted the fact that food is everywhere.
Did I mention? One special place to indulge in the World’s vast
delights! ACC cooking class is the place to be, once every month. On
March 26 from 6:30pm participants held the world in their hands as
they crossed from Greece to the Caribbean back to Asia aboard a plate
loaded with mouth watering delights.
On the demo were easy to make party-starters. Bruschetta, an Italian
dish by origin and made from baked bread roll loaded with a blend of
tomatoes, garlic, and basil in olive oil was accompanied by creamy
corn soup. Romaine lettuce, red grapes, and oranges were cut and
tossed with lime and olive oil to give a tantalizing Caribbean salad.
Talk of the night was Tzatziki. Born in Greece, Tzatziki can be
tailored to suit the palate of the host. However creative one may
desire to be, dill and cucumber are the core ingredients of this deep
cum-spread. Olive oil and garlic were added as excellent options to
give the consistency and kick.
With close to a dozen food enthusiasts in attendance there is no doubt
the fame of these great recipes has been delivered in the ears of
many. At least I have personally been summoned to testify the goodness
of Tzatziki, and my answer was, and will remain a simple invitation to
the next cooking class.
April 16 is drawing near and great recipes are in wait to extend on
the reputation established by the “Party Starters” cooking class.
