The theme for March is appetizers! There are four cookbooks to choose from.  Browse the cookbooks, select and cook your favorite appetizer, and bring it in to share! Like always, participants choose print-outs of a recipe(s) from the cookbook(s) to take home to try out, then return next month with a report and/or the results.  It doesn’t matter if there is success or not!  It will all be a good time talking, comparing and perhaps, tasting. 

All cookbooks are available at the information desk at APL’s Bach Branch. They will make copies of the recipe for you.

TIME: 1:00 p.m.

Stew for One or Two
Cooking for one or two can be difficult. Quantities of food often are too big, and items spoil before they are consumed. Plus, many recipes are for at least four servings, which can create a problem preserving leftovers. All of this can be a real challenge when you are living alone or with one other  person.
NNORC is partnering with Cornell Cooperative Extension to offer a hands-on cooking workshop that addresses these concerns. Learn some easy shopping and preparation tips for putting together affordable, enjoyable meals for one or two people. This program includes cooking and sampling!
DATE: Tuesday, March 17, 2015
TIME: 2:00 – 3:30 p.m.
PLACE: First Congregational Church 405 Quail Street, Albany.
FEE: The cost is $4.00 per person.
