Traditional Southern Cooking


Adult Enrichment / Cooking & Food -
Winter/Spring 2025

Beginning in the 1960's, food in the U.S. deep south was heavily influenced by early settlers from France, Germany, and Spain. Slaves from Senegal, Africa, and Cuban refugees and Cajuns from Nova Scotia, Canada also contributed to the medley of flavors using the wealth of local seafood, vegetables, poultry, livestock and of course, pecans.

Join us in a memorable meal to include crab dip, traditional cheese straws, gumbo, jambalaya, red beans and rice, buttermilk biscuits, cheese grits, pecan praline candy and traditional bread pudding with bourbon sauce. 

Don’t forget to bring containers to safely transport your delicious creations home.
