PROGRAM UPDATE: As of July 1, 2024, there is no longer a requirement for participants to take an 8-hour class. First-time participants can take the 4-hour class and repeat every three years to qualify for the discount.
Have some fun participating in this cook-along experience as you learn how to make your own homemade Classic Pierogi, and wonderful Sweet Berry Pierogi with 2 types of homemade dough and filling that will make your taste buds dance for joy! We will also be learning how to cook, and freeze these little dumplings that you can make ahead and store for a rainy day. No fancy equipment needed. You will have the option to cook along with one or both of these, or simply observe and take notes to make them later, and have all of your questions answered by the instructor.
One registration fee may include immediate family members living in the same household, and adult supervision is required for participating children.
The class will take place on Zoom. You'll receive instructions on how to access the class prior to the start date. You will also receive a list of ingredients in time to shop and prep for the class. A copy of the instructor's recipes will be sent out to all participants after class.
Tess Georgakopoulos has been cooking for well over 40 years since she was roughly six years old. Born into a Greek family, the art of cooking traditional meals using one's senses rather than recipes and measurements was passed on from one generation to the next. Her father was also a trained chef who brought the magic of food to life in another form on the weekends as they cooked elaborate family meals together. Food prepared from the heart, with one's own hands and creativity, was and continues to be an expression of love in her home.
