Spice up Your Cooking

with

Spice Club

Are you a little bored with your own cooking? Want to broaden your repertoire and try some new flavors? Spice up your life with our  Spice Club! Each month you'll get a sample of a different spice and a variety of recipes to try featuring that spice. We'll also include some online resources if you'd like to find your own recipes.

You can share your results (triumphs and epic fails!) with other Maynard cooks in a discussion (with shared food).

NOVEMBER

In November, we'll be cooking with cardamom! Cardamom is widely used in Europe, the Middle East and in Asia to flavor sweet and savory dishes.

Kits available:           November 4

Discussion:               Sat November 23, 12 noon

The November recipes are here.

Let everyone know what you plan to bring this month:
