coolinary pickles

August 21, 2013 • Nancy Wolfson-Moche

We had an extraordinary dinner at the Palm Beach Gardens farm-to-table restaurant Coolinary Café. Knowing we’d be leaving for the airport before sunrise, I got a jar of their crunchy pickles to bring along on our trip.

Chef Tim Lipman sources most ingredients locally, as shown on the blackboard below. Cool.

Lipman shared the ingredients for his delicious refrigerator pickles, listed below. I don’t have the exact recipe, but it’s worth a trip to his fine restaurant to taste them, and many other original dishes on his innovative menu that changes daily. My kids ordered from the main menu, but they had a blast coloring the kids’ menu.

Icing on the Cake: Testimonials

I loved Ms. Nancy’s cooking class so much.! I have been in this cooking class for two years and I would love to sign up for another one. I tried a lot of new foods like winter squash, cardamom, Brussels sprouts and kale. My favorite salad was the kiwi, carrot, radish salad.
Not only did we cook and eat, we also did labs about food. We used rulers to measure the size of plants. We also explored stone fruits and their ripe season. Now in my house we have window boxes and I am growing cherry tomatoes and basil.
I learned that we can use a lot of different tools to cook, not just our hands and senses. We used safety knives, potato peelers and a carrot sharpener (I wonder if you could sharpen a pencil with it?) !!!
Because of this class I can help papi make dinner and I will try any new food at least once to see if I like it. Thank you, Ms. Nancy for making cooking fun and interesting and helping me be excited about food.

- Love, K (a 7-year-old boy).
