 For an oyster fan, Oysters A - Z with Chef Kerry Heffernan during the New York Culinary Experience (NYCE) 2016 hosted by New York magazine and The International Culinary Center (ICC) in New York City was a fantasy of a cooking class. During the class I shucked my fair share of oysters to make East and West Raw Oysters with Two Mignonettes, Fried Oysters with Cornichon, Tangerine and Coriander Crema, and Oyster Pan Roast, with Oysteroot (Salsify) Celeriac, Bacon and Kale, and although all of the recipes were delicious, alas there were no pearls in any of my oysters. Chef Kerry Heffernan graciously shares his recipes for East and West Raw Oysters with Two Mignonettes, and Fried Oysters with Cornichon, Tangerine and Coriander Crema.

 I took an exciting Modern Hawaiian Techniques and Cuisine class with Chef Chung Chow of Noreetuh in New York City, New York during the New York Culinary Experience (NYCE) 2016 hosted by New York magazine and the The International Culinary Center (ICC). As a scuba diver, I have spent substantial time in the Hawaiian Islands, and wanted to learn new techniques and flavor profiles to create Hawaiian cuisine at home. Under Chef Chung Chow's guidance, the class created Mochi-Crusted Black Bass with Green Beans in a Fermented Black Bean Sauce, and Big-Eye Tuna Poke with Macadamia Nuts, Seaweed, and Soy-Pickled Jalapenos. It felt great to be back in Hawaii, if even only by my palate!

 Chili and Cornbread are perfect winter comfort food, so we set off to North Conway Village, New Hampshire to experience the 13th Annual Chilly Chili Cook-Off presented by the Mt Washington Valley Chamber of Commerce. For those not familiar with chili, Merriam-Webster dictionary defines it as "Chili con carne, a spiced stew of ground beef and minced chiles or chili powder usually with beans," and cornbread as "a bread or cake made with cornmeal." These broad definitions provided plenty of opportunity for chefs to let their creativity flow for this very tasty competition.

 We took a great cooking class at El Arrayan while we were in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico where we learned to make traditional Mexican dishes. Destination cooking classes are extremely popular as they provide an opportunity to learn about local flavors, techniques, and culture while on vacation, and to recreate the recipes when you return home as an extension of your trip. We cannot wait to create the recipes at home to share the experience with our family and friends.

 The art of making chocolate truffles with award-winning Danish Master Chocolatier Fritz Knipschildt of Chocopologie by House of Knipschildt at The Clarke Culinary Center in South Norwalk, Connecticut was a most delicious experience. For chocolate lovers, biting into a sinfully rich chocolate truffle with its decadent creaminess is one of life's little pleasures. Taking its name from the shape of a fungus that is the culinary equivalent of gold the chocolate truffle is every bit as precious as its earthy namesake.
