Farm-to-Table Cooking Class with Brian Talley of Talley Vineyards
Epicurean Theatre welcomes Brian Talley, owner/winegrower of Talley Vineyards & Talley Farms to this month’s cooking class lineup in Tampa.
On Tuesday, March 21, from 7 to 9 p.m., guests will enjoy a cooking class and wine pairing featuring three recipes from Brian’s new cookbook, Our California Table, Celebrating the Seasons with the Talley Family.
Brian will share his California farm-to-table philosophy, an excellent three-course menu with wine pairings and share stories from the farm.
During the cooking class, learn how to make these three menu items: Pan-fried black cod with spinach and truffled cauliflower, filet mignon with red-wine sauce and country-style fingerling potatoes, and Sarah’s Nappa cabbage salad. Each course will be delightfully paired with wine from the Talley Vineyards collection.
