To Know How to Cook is to Eat Well—to Eat Well is to Live Well!
 

If there is one thing all food lovers know it is that a good day can be made even better by the enjoyment of a pleasurable meal.

At Company's Coming, our students learn how to create delicious meals from a wide range of cultures. Using easy to follow recipes with "Make ahead" notes, each hands on participation class prepares a full meal - or a series of small plates. Once the table is set, the group then sits down to enjoy the meal together.

It doesn't matter whether you are a novice, an experienced cook or a lapsed cook. You will learn to cook better with new skills as you gain an appreciation for new flavors. Our recipes specialize in appetizing, fresh and healthy foods that are easy to prepare - we promise!

In addition to our schedule of classes, Company's Coming also offers Customized Classes for business, friends and family. Each of these private classes is customized to make it unique and memorable for your group! Select from Team Building, Corporate or Party classes.
Our Latest Recipe ~ MUSSELS STEAMED IN FOIL
 

Make ahead note:

Get ingredients assembled to cook at the last minute. The recipe serves 8 as a first course, 2-4 as an entree.

Ingredients:

  • 2 Lb mussels
  • 4 Tbl butter
  • 1/2 cup white port. You can also use a white wine or dry vermouth
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • Freshly ground pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Tear off 8 pieces of foil, each about 18 inches long. Fold in half so that it is 9 inches long.

Place the pieces of foil on your counter and divide the mussels between each piece. Divide the butter, port, garlic and place on top of each pile of mussels. Give a twist of freshly ground pepper to each. Close the packages by drawing all the corners up so that there is still a bit of space for the mussels to open.

Place on rimmed cookie sheets and bake for about 10 to 14 minutes. Place the packages on plates and enjoy with bread.
