Tops to Roots: Zero-Waste Cooking Class
6-7 pm, Benicia Community Center

Learn how you can cut back on household food waste, save money and resources, and be part of the solution! Join Stephanie Oelsligle Jordan, Sustainable Solano’s Local Food Program Manager, for a cooking class that explores what to do with those beet greens, radish tops, potato peels and more! Chef Steph will walk through several recipe ideas, discuss food storage strategies, the real meaning of “best by” and expiration dates, and demonstrate two simple no-cook sauces: Carrot Top Pesto and Moroccan Chermoula sauce, which utilize summer herbs. Information on new food waste laws affecting Benicia will begin the class and an audience Q&A will take place at the end. Register here!
