Longer days and warmer weather call for a picnic, the perfect way to take a break from it all, enjoy nature, and improve your well-being. Picnics are also an opportunity (or an excuse) to gather with family and friends in a casual setting and enjoy a no-fuss meal under the sky. In our cooking class, you’ll learn to prepare picnic-friendly dishes inspired by the Eastern Mediterranean region, where the weather is mild and eating outdoors in a social setting is a big part of everyday life. We will focus on simple, tasty dishes that are easy to make, travel well, and can be eaten cold while sitting on a blanket, often without utensils. The menu will include pita bread, cauliflower and eggplant tahini, veggie stuffed pastry, lentil salad, and halvah cookies. This in-person class is a combination of demonstration and hands-on experience. We will spend the second part of the afternoon outdoors (if the weather permits), enjoying what we have prepared, engaging socially, and sharing more picnic dish ideas.
Hila Krikov is the founder of Sweet Tahini, a food company that specializes in making tahini-based desserts. Born and raised in Israel, she became passionate about cooking Middle Eastern staple dishes after her family relocated thousands of miles from home to western Texas, and she felt homesick for her childhood's comforting flavors. In the cooking and dining experiences she hosts, Hila shares the region’s diverse culinary traditions alongside her home cooking skills, to inspire her guests to embrace these flavors in their kitchens.
