Experience the warmth and elegance of Greek cuisine in this one-of-a-kind cook-along experience with instructor Tess, who brings generations of culinary tradition straight to your table! Tess will guide participants in the step-by-step process of making Dolmáthes—tender grape leaves delicately filled with savory rice and seasoned meat filling. Then, it will be gently simmered and finished with a luxurious velvety avgolemono sauce—a classic emulsion of fresh lemon juice and egg. To complete the meal, participants will bake a loaf of crusty artisan bread—perfect for savoring the bright, savory essence of the rich, avgolemono sauce.
Cherished at holiday gatherings and family feasts throughout Greece and beyond, Dolmáthes are more than a meal—they’re a tradition. Join in an evening of soulful cooking, rich flavor, and timeless technique as you learn to craft this classic from scratch with guidance rooted in generations of experience. Whether you're new to Mediterranean cooking or simply craving authentic comfort food, this cook-along experience is an invitation to slow down, savor the goodness, and cook with heart.
The registration fee covers immediate family members living in the same household only. If children are participating, adult supervision is required.
The week of class, you will receive an email with an ingredient and supply list, prep packet, and Zoom video conferencing link. A few days after the class, you will receive an additional email with the recipes used during the class.
Tess Georgakopoulos has been cooking since she was roughly six years old -- well over forty years. Born into a Greek family, the art of cooking traditional meals using one's senses rather than recipes and measurements was passed on from one generation to the next. Her father was a trained chef who brought the magic of food to life in another form as they cooked elaborate family meals together. Food prepared from the heart, with one's own hands and creativity, was, and continues to be, an expression of love in her home. As a skilled home-cook and baker, Tess enjoys creating original recipes for her family and friends. She has recently started writing her first cookbook, and has a food blog in the works.
