Recently COOK had the great pleasure to host a class led by superstar Boston chef and restaurateur, Barbara Lynch: the brains and spoons behind Boston restaurants including Menton, No.9 Park, The Butcher Shop and B&G Oysters.

Chef Barbara (with the help of sous chef Stephanie Cmar and Elle Jarvis, GM of her COOK-like Boston demonstration kitchen, Stir) served a menu of recipes that can all be found in her cookbook, Stir: Mixing It Up In The Italian Tradition.

At COOK, the sold-out crowd devoured a menu that consisted of:

• Butter Soup a la Menton
• Harvest Salad – six minute egg & black truffle
• Brioche Pizza – fried pistachios & honey
• Prune Stuffed Gnocchi – foie gras & vin santo
• Fresh Berries – cumin meringue & whipped creme fraiche

After the successful and delicious evening, COOK and Stir are now talking about a possible trip to Europe for a joint cooking excursion.
