SUMMARY:Blind Wine Tasting and Fellowship Dinner
DESCRIPTION:Put your palate to the test at ESB’s Blind Wine Tasting & Fellowship dinner! \nGuests will come together to enjoy a “Fellowship Dinner”\, where each guest brings a food item (starter\, side\, or entree) to share family style…i.e. Potluck and sit down blind wine tasting of 6 red Rhone varietal wines. Members will gather\, taste three single varietals\, enjoy dinner\, then proceed to a blind tasting where palates and red wines will be put to the test. Don’t want to cook? No problem! Call up our friends at C’est Cheese\, Tino’s or Whole Foods and have them put together a cheese\, charcuterie\, or apertivo platter; or order a dish from your favorite restaurant to share with friends. \n\nThe theme of this blind tasting is: high quality Rhone varietal red blends vs. pure Rhone red varietals. Can you tell the difference between a 100% Syrah\, Mourvèdre\, or Grenache versus a blend\, such as a GSM? Whether a beginner or advanced super taster\, this blind tasting is a great opportunity to grow your wine knowledge and palate. The education doesn’t stop there…not only are your testing your palate\, but you’re putting the wine to the test\, correlating the perceived quality of a blend against that of a single varietal. What do you prefer? Why 100%? Why the blend? How do the varietals affect the overall flavor and aromatics of the blend?

SUMMARY:Epicurean Culinary Test Kitchen
DESCRIPTION:Introducing the Epicurean Culinary Test Kitchen\nIn keeping with our mission of providing food and wine education\, Epicurean Santa Barbara is creating the Epicurean Culinary Test Kitchen! This culinary workshop brings together 5-6 intermediate to advanced home cooks who will each create a dish based on a chosen recipe. \nThink of all the recipes you wish you could make\, but haven’t found the time or occasion to make them! The ESB Test Kitchen gives chefs the opportunity to test a new interesting recipe in the company of fellow hobbyist cooks. Enjoy a glass of wine or cocktail\, observe and learn each others’ tricks and techniques\, and then sample each other’s dishes!  No pressure here…Some recipes will be winners and some will be duds. The best recipes we’ll share with club members with chefs’ notes\, so that others can expand their horizons as home chefs!Each ESB Test Kitchen Workshop is open to 4-5 attendees. Guests will register for an appetizer\, starter\, main\, side\, or dessert. They will bring with them all ingredients for their dish. If recipes require substantial prep (i.e. brining\, curing\, etc…) those preparations should be done in advance. The host will provide the kitchen\, tools\, culinary knowledge\, and will reach out to guests before the event to ensure they have all the required tools needed (i.e. blender\, wok\, meat grinder). ESB Staff will be on hand to assist in set-up\, clean-up\, stirring\, chopping\, mashing\, wine pouring\, or other culinary tasks. Our first Test Kitchen will be hosted by Judy Astbury! \nHappy Cooking!\nP.S. If you would like to host an ESB Test Kitchen in your own home\, please reach out to amy@epicureansb.com.

SUMMARY:Wild Game Meat Dinner with Chef Drew Terp
DESCRIPTION:Venture into the world of Exotic meats with Chef Drew of Pico Restaurant\, Los Alamos!\nChef Drew will feature a multi-course meal of ambitious preparations of wild game meats such as elk\, bison\, reindeer\, pheasant\, boar and grouse specifically for ESB members.    \nThere are many benefits in eating game meats…one of the main benefits is that it is one of the most healthiest meats available. It’s very low in cholesterol\, calories\, and is very lean (low in fat). It’s also high in protein\, iron and vitamin B\, yet low in saturated fat. The fat that is in game meat is Omega 3. Wild game\, such as venison\, has an optimum ratio of Omega-3 to Omega-6 fatty acids\, making game one of the healthiest sources of good fat. All game is naturally organic\, hormone and antibiotic free\, rather their diets are natural which also contributes to its distinctive delicious taste. They’re not genetically modified or in any other way unnaturally “enhanced.”  \nThis event will be held in a private home in Santa Barbara and will offer an optional wine pairing featuring highly rated wines\, hand selected to enhance the great flavors of wild game meats. BYOB is also welcome.  \n\nWild game is the original sustainable\, free-ranging\, grass-fed meat.\n\n \nAbout the chef! \nChef Drew has cooked in and helmed at Michelin-Starred kitchens from Napa (Auberge du Soleil) to New York City (Alain Ducasse at the Essex House\, Masa and BarMasa)\, to Spain (under Chef Pedro Subijana at Akelare). He also opened and served as Executive Chef for\, Las Vegas restaurants BarMasa and Shaboo\, and worked under José Andrés at Jaleo\, in Washington\, D.C.
