Spud of the Month: Potato Confit with Lemon Vinaigrette

  • Food + Farm Exploration Center 3400 Innovation Drive Plover, WI 54467 USA (map)

Celebrate the potato in a whole new way!
Join us for our Spud of the Month (SOTM) cooking class series led by Chef Davey. Each month, you’ll learn a new recipe featuring Wisconsin’s favorite tuber—plus enjoy snacks and a signature potato vodka cocktail (or mocktail). Bring your favorite recipes, connect with local foodies, and experience the fun of cooking together in this unique social club while you discover new ways to cook with Wisconsin Potatoes—one spud at a time!

Summer is the perfect time for fresh, garden-inspired flavors. In our July Spud of the Month class, we’ll explore the technique of Potato Confit. You'll learn how to slow-cook petite potatoes in a mixture of butter and oil until tender, then finish them with a bright Meyer lemon-scented olive oil, garlic, and fresh thyme. Tickets available soon!
