Some of the unique offerings taking place this fall season include:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sous Vide<\/strong><br \/>\nLooking to expand your culinary horizons? For the first time ever, The Healthy Butcher co-owner Mario Fiorucci and Cedarlane Culinary\u2019s Dustin Skeoch, will host a Sous Vide class. Sous Vide is a culinary technique in which vacuum-sealed food is immersed in a water bath and cooked at a very precise, consistent temperature. The precise temperature control allows cooking food to perfection, while the forgiving nature of this cooking method also eliminates concerns about overcooking and produces extraordinary results. The next class takes place on Tues. Nov.18, from 8 pm to 9:30 pm at 298 Eglinton Ave., W. Classes cost $40 per session.<\/p>\n<p><strong> The Art of the Roast<\/strong><br \/>\nLooking to become the perfect dinner party host? Try The Healthy Butcher\u2019s The Art of the Roast class. The Healthy Butcher\u2019s executive head chef Jonathan Abrahams will teach participants what cut of meat to choose, whether to use dry heat or wet heat, how to season the roast and much more!
