Creamy Mashed Potatoes & From-Scratch Gravy ~ Thanksgiving Cooking Class

Two lessons in one! We'll be making the creamiest dreamiest mashed potatoes and a gravy so good you may cry happy tears..all in 90 minutes!

Good mashed potatoes are an art. Sure they only contain a small handful of ingredients. But it's the treatment of those ingredients and the process behind the magical taters that make this side dish (...or main dish. I won't judge.) so very good.  

And don't forget the gravy! THE GRAVY. I learned how to make gravy in high school. It was my job every Thanksgiving at my boyfriend's family's house. And his grandma was a pro. A legit gravy superstar. And even though he and I didn't last, those gravy lessons did. :)

We're going to take all your turkey drippings and turn them into pure magic. (By the way, we're going to practice prepping and roasting the perfect on a special video that I'll have out soon. We'll be using a chicken for that, but the same exact rules apply.) Gravy is my single most favorite part of Thanksgiving. To me, gravy is a food group. It covers my entire plate like warm and yummy blanket. And I love it soooo much. 

And I'm going to show you all how to create gravy magic. Because mashed potatoes need gravy. Right? 

So ignore that stuff in a jar and let's get cooking! Come and join me as we make these two timeless Thanksgiving classics and learn lots of culinary techniques along the way!

And, as always, this class makes use of some items from your perfect pantry ingredients! 

Our recipes are all pantry-centered because we believe that having certain essential ingredients on hand is key to successful home cooking. We combine these pantry basics - whole grains, herbs, spices, and/or legumes - with a few fresh ingredients to create simple, affordable, nutritious, and delicious recipes that anyone can make.
