July 7th Class: Condimenti!

Italians are famous for many things but especially for their food and sense of style. On Monday, July 7th, we'll learn how they combine these two talents in a class, Condimenti! or How to Dress Your Cheese in Style. Ilyse Rathet from Ritrovo Italian Regional Foods will be on hand to discuss pairing traditional Italian cheeses with classic condiments to bring out the best of both. Ilyse and her husband Ron Post spent six years in Italy, studying, traveling, and researching indigenous regional food and wine, and building relationships with talented, small-scale producers all over the country. In this class, Ilyse will discuss regional styles and techniques of combining flavors -- and naturally we'll be tasting our way through these pairings. Join us on the 7th to learn about the styles and techniques -- and then go forth to dress your cheese with style and confidence!
