Are you in need of a great treat for Valentine’s Day? Do you want to make something special for your significant other or friend, but are unsure what to make? Or are you single looking for a way to learn something new? Look no further.

On February 18, ISU’s Continuing Education and Workforce Training is hosting a Zoom cooking class.

This cooking class, held through Zoom, is the second installment of In the Kitchen with CEWT-- CEWT’s latest recurring segment. In the Kitchen with CEWT gives you the opportunity to learn how to make delicious treats and savory dishes with the help of local chefs, bakers, and home cooks.

Tired of cooking the same thing over and over again? Want to get some variety to your weekly meals? Consider spicing things up a little. Variety is the spice of life, after all, and Indian food takes this philosophy to heart.

Ah, the new year: that inevitable time of the year where your jeans are fitting tighter than usual after the abundance of rich holiday food. Whether you prefer the sweet or savory foods that fill holiday gatherings, you may just find yourself craving more after you have sworn you’ve had the last bite.

Regardless of whether you’re a Pumpkin Spice Latte fan or not, most people will agree that the blend of spices in pumpkin spice products evoke fall, colder weather, and the upcoming holiday season. And it seems to be a seasonal favorite-- Starbucks has sold 200 million PSLs within the first decade since its launch in 2003 (McGrath). What many may not know is the often turbulent history of the spices and even the pumpkins themselves that make up the menagerie of pumpkin spice products.

Imagine pushing your fork through a delicately thin, sweet, pancake-like treat stuffed full of savory cherry sauce and sprinkled with powdered sugar. Now imagine yourself doing the same with it loaded with warm ham slices, melted cheese, and eggs, or jammed with cooked spinach and seasoned chicken.

Sorry, are we making you hungry?
