Trip to Tuscany Planned for Spring

Janice Thomas, owner of Ellison Bay’s Savory Spoon Cooking School, with some Tuscan Kale at the Greve Market.

The Savory Spoon Cooking School is getting ready for its second annual culinary tour in Tuscany. The trip, planned for May 9, 2010, will provide the perfect opportunity for anyone that has always dreamed of going to Italy to enjoy the countryside, as spring in Tuscany is cherished by all.

Tuscany, and specifically the Chianti region known for its great wines, is said to be a land of many delicious flavors. Recognized as the birthplace of Italian cooking, those who are signed up for the trip are already dreaming of sipping true Italian cappuccino, enjoying a rich gelato, sampling the fruits and wines of the region’s many vineyards, as well as tasting the simply prepared meals. Whether featuring grilled and roasted meats, seasonal vegetables like artichokes, mushrooms and cannellini beans, or pasta, the hero at any Italian meal, the food is sure to be mouth watering.
