    What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published Dec. 13, 2007 at 9:38 a.m.

    Last Wednesday evening I had the opportunity to teach a cooking class at Superior Equipment and Supply, 3101 S. 13th St. Superior recently installed a test kitchen, complete with fancy commercial appliances and a real-time camera, which had me on an overhead television while I chopped away.

    Superior's Wednesday night cooking classes feature a guest chef or other foodie who will create several dishes for you in an hour's time. The 6:30 p.m. classes cost $10, and you get to sample the dishes. Class members also receive a $10 gift certificate for any culinary purchases during their visit.

    My students learned how to make bruschetta, butternut squash risotto and roasted seasonal vegetables with goat cheese. Other guest chefs have taught homemade pizza recipes, sautéed Brussels sprouts with hone, and apple chutney.

    December's schedule is as follows:

    Dec. 12: Holiday Fare: Guest Chef from Forty8 Restaurant, 4823 W. National Ave.
    Dec. 19: Tablescape Magic: Kathy Krause, floral designer
    Dec. 26: More Cheese Please!: Howard Lutz, West Allis Cheese and Sausage

    Cheap cooking program is mainly concerned about the knowledge of working in commercial kitchen. Students are provided a basic knowledge and many hours of hands-on practice. This program is offered to the student who have successfully completed culinary basic program. http://www.culinaryschoolsprograms.com/

    I attended the class Dave did at Superior Restaurant Supply. I had never eaten Kale, and I wasn't all jazzed about brussel sprouts, but Dave has changed all that. What a cool and yummy demonstration.

    Hey Mike -- You might try Chef Dave Swanson (http://www.braiseculinaryschool.com/). He does all kinds of classes, including customized in-your-home classes. You might get some of the types of training you're looking for thorugh him.

    Does anyone know where I can find a sushi making class? I'm willing to do a private class with a local restaurant/chef, as well.

    Where can I find a cooking class that doesn't just teach you how to cook a basic meal, but instead teaches you more advanced cooking strategies such as knife skills and what foods go well together?
