Eating Seasonally with Traditional Chinese Medicine
- 7:00 pm - 8:30 pm | Tuesday February 08, 2022

The Chinese calendar divides the year into 24 seasonal points 二十四节气 (also called “solar terms”). These 2-week long seasonal periods make up the 5 seasons and each of these are associated with certain foods. Learn the culinary wisdom behind those seasonal points with Traditional Chinese Medicine chef and nutritionist Zoey Gong. Let us eat with season and tune-in to mother nature!
In February: we learn ALL ABOUT TOFU!
Tofu is so much more than soft, firm, and extra firm. In this workshop, you will be able to learn ways to cook 7 different kinds of uncommon soy products and taste the different flavors and textures of them.
Ticket price includes ingredients for the workshop. Proof of vaccination mandatory.
