   Chef! I’ll be especially interested to know how one cook squid without having it end up all rubber-bandy and over-chewy.
   Ciao!

   Stay tuned man. If you can make it to our squid slaughter class two weeks from now, I’ll show you all.

   Love,

   Erica,

   Love this site, love it love it.

   I wonder if you would demonstrate the art of artichoke-butchering in one of your classes? You describe it well, but I want to see it live!!

   See you soon-

   Cindy,

   I’ve been thinking about it. A lot of people seem to want this. I was going to do an artichoke class a few weeks ago, but I couldn’t find any baby artichokes in the market. Still can’t. I have no idea why. They’ve disappeared. I can do I class with just the big ones, but the little ones are such a dream, I really want to show people how easy they are to work with. I’ll keep hunting around for them.

   Ciao, and thanks for the color.

   Erica

   I’d love to take a class on Sardine cookery. I have attempted them, but they usually stink, and fall back to the canned variety. I read that you mentioned they are available very fresh at chelsea markets. This is certainly a great food for recession cooking: cheap, good for the environment, great for your body with all the omega-3s.

   Please let me know if you offer this in the future, as I’ll be there!!!

     Hello Bren,

     We did a squid class a few weeks ago and it was quite a hit. Frankly I was surprised, especially since I presented my students with uncleaned squid. I’d love to do a sardine class and possibly will. Keep checking my class schedule. I think next week I’m doing grains and beans.

     Best to you,
     Erica
