WPL Test Kitchen

WPL is offering a new series of cooking classes at the Main Library. These classes are taught  in the Saxe Room on Saturday afternoons from 2:00 to 3:30.

We had an amazing turnout recently for Chef Colin McCullough’s Amazing Vegan Sauces cooking class! Colin demonstrated how to prepare several delicious sauces for bowl meals and the audience got to sample them all!

WPL will be partnering with VegWorcester,
to continue our vegan cooking series with Colin’s return on March 24.  Watch our website for details.  Click here for more photos from the Vegan Sauces class and photos from other events held at WPL: https://flic.kr/s/aHskvwAF5H

Next up will be Gluten-Free Cooking, Saturday, February 17. Join us for a demonstration on mixing and rolling out pie dough.  Each participant will receive a pre-mixed piece of dough, a pie tin, and plastic wrap to roll out their own piece of dough. Then wrap up the ready-to-bake pie crust to take home! Samples and recipes will be available. Register online: https://tinyurl.com/yb2t8brf).
