An Exceptionally Festive Christmas Feast

Pickwick & Cherry Kitchen 607 S Pickwick, Rear Door, Springfield, MO, United States

Imagine — your favorite group of up to 12 people gathering together to prepare a scrumptious holiday feast (under the guidance of our talented instructors), then sitting down to share it together! That’s what we’re offering this holiday season — the opportunity to book one of our fabulous hands-on Cooking Experience dinners for your friends, family, co-workers, or whoever else you’d like to invite.

The menu for our private holiday parties is usually boneless prime rib roast, duck fat potatoes, brussels sprouts gatton, spinach, pear & cranberry salad and a festive seasonal dessert, but it’s your party, so please let us know if you’d like to make any alterations and we will work with you to create a menu that everyone will love.

The price listed below is for the whole party. If you wish to make menu substitutions, there may be an additonal charge. All of our events are BYOB.

$995.00 – $1,175.00

Home Cheesemaking Class

Pickwick & Cherry Kitchen 607 S Pickwick, Rear Door, Springfield, MO, United States

How is liquid milk turned into hard cheese?  It is a simple question with a complex but accessible answer that goes back thousands of years.  It is also a fun and easy project for your own kitchen! 

If you have ever wondered how cheese is made, or just have a healthy interest in a new cooking project, this class is for you.  There is nothing quite like the simple steps that lead to the complex alchemy that is cheese making.  And the fresh cheeses you will learn to make never taste better than when they are freshly made by your own hands.  In this class we will learn to make three of the simplest but most ancient and delicious cheeses possible.  We will learn to make fresh Ricotta, the simplest of cheeses with the fewest ingredients and a magic moment of transformation.  We will learn to make our own yogurt, and then transform it into labneh, a rich and creamy spreadable cheese whose delicious flavor is matched only by its ease and wonder of creation.  Lastly, we will learn the 30 minute Mozzarella technique.  It's the most involved of the three, but also the most fun, most versatile, and will certainly earn you the most bragging rights. And time permitting, we might even make our own burrata!

“Hey Honey!” Tasting Experience

Pickwick & Cherry Kitchen 607 S Pickwick, Rear Door, Springfield, MO, United States

Join us to learn all about honey and sample a variety of rare, exotic and gourmet honeys! Most of us have only sampled wildflower honey, or perhaps clover, alfalfa, or orange blossom honeys, but did you know that honey can have a wide range of flavors beyond just sweet -- some honeys are even bitter! We've been collecting some of the world's most unique monofloral honeys, including blueberry blossom, watermelon, Brazillian Pepper tree, Strawberry Tree, macadamia, lychee, eucalyptus, African Beechwood, buffalo thorn, myrtle and more, and we can't wait to share these unique bee-creations with you.
