The South is known for breakfast fare, but New Orleans steals the spotlight when it comes to brunch.
In this hands-on cooking class, Chef Shelley will teach you how to create a classic New Orleans brunch unraveling the mystery of distinctive regional flavors.
Begin by learning the essentials of making the base of many New Orleans dishes — a roux. You'll use your new skill to prepare shrimp sassy benedict and red-eye gravy with ham to top buttery biscuits. Then, bananas foster brings the party to the brunch table with banana liqueur and dark rum.

This was a great class! Chef Shelley definitely has skills. Her home was warm and inviting, and she made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. The food was delicious and relatively easy to prepare with her instruction. Looking forward to making this meal again for my own family, especially the chocolate mousse…
