‘Tiny Bites’ of News From Morso

MENU FOR AUGUST 19TH COOKING DEMO

“Think about the perfect summer evening. How many beautiful, temperate, moon-drenched
evenings do we actually have the time to stop and just enjoy ourselves and our friends and families?”

 — Executive Chef Pino Luongo
Simply Tuscan

As mid-summer fades into late summer, I personally like to take advantage of every opportunity to be outdoors. For this reason, our August 19 cooking class will begin outside on Morso’s beautiful Garden Terrace for hors d’oeuvres before moving inside for the demonstration and dinner. Featured on the menu is summer cuisine that I feel is a reflection of the weather. Simple, succulent foods with ingredients that thrive on the heat and complement its qualities.

MENU

Hors d’oeuvres – Calamari al Forno – baked crisp calamari

First Demo Dish – Spaghetti  al Pomodoro Crudo – a great summer pasta showcasing heirloom tomatoes from the North Fork of Long Island

Second Demo Dish – Tourno Scottato – pan seared tuna served rare with string beans and tomatoes in a citrus marinade

Dessert – Summer Sorbet, cookies     

Each course will be paired with the perfect wine selected by Chef Pino.

Our cooking demos have become very special events for those guests who join us for food, wine and lively conversation, and this promises to be one you won’t want to miss. Join us on Monday, August 19 for our final summer cooking demo and our celebration of the flavors of the season.
