Description

with Cynthia Nims Event Description: This class includes a few of Cynthia Nims’ favorite recipes that reflect home cooking done in a French style, and she’ll share stories of time in France that inspired these recipes. Cynthia has been enamored with French cuisine for a long time; she even invited her high school French class to her house for a from-scratch French dinner. These recipes offer opportunity for variations, ideal to adapt with the seasons and your favorite ingredients. Food writer and culinary consultant Cynthia Nims is a life-long Northwesterner who grew up surrounded by great food, both in her mother’s kitchen and exploring the region with her family. After graduating from La Varenne cooking school in France, she returned home to Seattle and to her first magazine job as an editor at Simply Seafood magazine. Since then, she has contributed to other magazines and worked on many cookbook projects, including over a dozen cookbooks she has written herself. Among them are Salty Snacks, Oysters and Shellfish (which is coming out in 2022).
