Ring in the new year with tasty takes on New Year’s traditions with Chef Heather Artripe in the HKS Kitchen. Filled with ingredients essential to kicking off the upcoming New Year – from black-eyed peas to champagne – this tasty menu gives you something to celebrate. For starters, you’ll enjoy a chef-prepared winter vegetable slaw to awaken your appetite. Then, you’ll begin the hands-on portion of the class, creating a mixed greens salad with champagne vinaigrette and crunchy cornbread croutons. Next, you’ll prepare a hearty, flavorful black-eyed pea stew with sausage and greens to serve up good luck in the new year. And, to finish the evening, the chef will fill your dessert plate with a champagne donut that you can raise in toast to a delicious evening. Start your celebration a little early with a festive and fun culinary experience. Recipes will be provided. Tickets are priced per person.

MEET THE CHEF:
One of Heather Artripe's first memories of being a child is dragging a chair across her Granny's kitchen floor to stand on so she could help her cook. 10 years ago Heather started teaching cooking classes at Ozark Natural Foods and never looked back! She started to become obsessed with cooking and creating, focusing on honest, real, flavorful-all-on-it's-own food, and local ingredients when at all possible. When she is not cooking for fun, teaching cooking classes, or shooting Rooted in the Ozarks, you can find her in her own little urban homestead growing veggies, fruits, and herbs, canning and pickling, hanging out with her pack of animals, thinking of recipes, talking about recipes, etc. She loves cooking and loves food. And most of all, she loves creating it.
