COOKING WITH HERBS

The Northland Arboretum will host a cooking show Wednesday night. Chef Sharon Wettyland and Master Gardener Orv Haustad will talk about cooking with fresh herbs. Wettyland said she will whip up a number of delicious items like pesto tortalini with fresh pesto, pork skewers in lemon-sage cream, and thyme-scented rice pilaf, and baby carrots in honey and fresh dill. Those who attend will get copies of the recipes as well as samples. Haustad said he will talk about both medicinal and culinary herbs. The show starts at 7pm Wednesday night at the Northland Arboretum in Baxter on Excelsior Road just north of the Movies Ten movie theater. Cost is $20 for non-members and $10 for members.
