For this cooking demo, Chef Troy wants to celebrate our local mining heritage. To start we will enjoy a Wild Greens and Root Salad. We will learn how to create a Huckleberry Honey Vinaigrette Emulsification. Chef Troy will then show us how to make the perfect “Pastie” using Venison and Root Vegetables. These O.G. “Hot Pockets” were a staple for mine workers as they were easily carried to work and were jammed packed with much-needed calories and nutrients. We will create the perfect dough, filling and … yes, gravy for these amazing lost, but not forgotten, culinary pastries. To finish off a perfect night, Crème Brûlée, but not just any Crème Brûlée. Chef will serve us his favorite fired-up whiskey pudding with a glass top.
The class begins promptly at 6pm, with doors opening 15 minutes prior, at the GreenTent Station Event Center in Coeur d’Alene. Registration can be found online at TheChefsTableCdA.TicketGoat.com.



My name is Jillian, and I have been an editor and writer here in Coeur d’Alene since 2006, during which time I’ve had the opportunity to work for nine publications across North Idaho, into Spokane and as far as Gig Harbor, Washington. I am grateful to have the opportunity to now focus all my attention, energy and passion on my local community, finding and sharing heartfelt stories, spotlighting the incredible people, showcasing local businesses, organizations and nonprofits, and of course highlighting the many wonderful events our area has to offer.
