Cast Iron Cooking Class

Escape the cold winter nights with comforting stick-to-the-ribs recipes using cast-iron cookware. Warm your bones with a delicious starter of pull-apart buttermilk biscuits. The flaky, fluffy biscuits are ready in under 30 minutes and are even better with herbed honey butter. Individual mini cast iron deep-dish pizzas allow each person to customize their fillings. Here, roasted veggies and cheese are tucked into a pizza shell then topped with savory scratch-made tomato-basil sauce resulting in a hearty, crispy bottomed pie. You’ll get pointers on making a full-sized deep-dish pizza at home. For dessert, an ooey-gooey brown butter chocolate chip skillet brownie is sure to indulge the greatest sweet tooth and take the chill off any wintry day. Food writer and chef-instructor Shawnie Kelley offers insights on how to maintain your cast iron cookware, clever cleaning hacks, and techniques for using different types of pans.
