CULINARY AND TASTING EDVENTURES

RijstaffelXXXXX $45

Thu 2/16 1-2:30pm Cheese CentralDutch for “rice table,” rijsttafel (“ryst-tah-fell”) is a by-product of Dutch colonialism in Indonesia, which, if we count the days of the Dutch East India Company, stretched for more than three centuries, formally concluding in 1949. When the Dutch returned home, they brought with them the practice of serving many small Indonesian dishes, revolving around rice. Not spicy, and without out using any unusual ingredients, our modern-day rijsttafel is the same exact idea, and we will present a simple, stream-lined Rijsttafel party to liven up the dreary late winter days!
