Reminiscent of popular TV cooking shows, participants will be given a mystery box that contains several ingredients. How will you creatively incorporate them into your dish? Meet up virtually on cooking day to discuss your dish. Supplies are limited and participants will be notified on how to pick up their mystery box ingredients in the days before we cook. This program will be held online. A link will be emailed to registered attendees in advance. Space is limited; registration required. Please visit our online calendar to register. One mystery box per household.
