Welcome to one of our most fun classes we have had, the Heirloom Apple class. Inspiration for this class came from one of my favorite farmers in the area Smit Orchards. Their apple display was so incredibly beautiful at my last visit to the market, I couldn’t resist but teach about the many varieties of apples we have growing here in San Diego. We used many different varietals during the class and we had different outcomes. A fun day of experimental cooking with my great guests!
