This time of year, the Greenmarket is bursting with ingredients-- but how do you best use that summer flavor? In this class, you'll learn to experiment with fresh herbs and more to make infusions that will add layers of flavor in your cooking.  

I'll demonstrate how to make:

- Flavored oils, which are great for grilling or salads. We'll talk about what herbs and spices make great infused oil while munching on an olive oil snack I make in class.

- Infused vinegars, which we'll use to concoct a refreshing summer drink called a shrub.
