Asparagus is an amazing veggie, isn’t it? It’s low in calories, has many nutritional benefits and it’s so versatile. Whether you grill it, steam it, puree it, bake it or heck, even microwave it, asparagus is delicious, healthy and luckily for us widely available in our agriculturally rich region. On Wednesday, March 25, 2015, Arden Hills’ head chef Lothar Wakefield invites you to their cooking class “Live With the Chef: Amazing Local Asparagus” to learn, watch and taste as he takes this veggie from farm to table in mouthwatering ways. “The focus of these informal and fun classes is on incorporating fresh ingredients designed for a healthy and well balanced diet,” states Ardenhills.net. To reserve your spot in the class ($20 per person) call (916) 292-5781, but hurry, space is limited. Live With the Chef cooking classes happen every third Wednesday, so keep an eye out on their website for updates on featured dishes and upcoming events.
