We know you've moved beyond thinking that honey comes in a plastic bear or that cheese comes in a big yellow block. Now learn exactly how to match the two incredible edibles together to create out-of-this-world pairings. Christine Lehner, owner of Let It Bee Honey, and Sascha Ingram, Murray's Classroom Coordinator, will be pairing a variety of honeys with the finest farmhouse cheeses. As complex as a wine pairing but sweeter going down, these pairings will get you buzzing about honey and cheese.

Mild and milky, smooth and silky: any way you stretch it, we love fresh mozzarella! In this hands-on crash course we'll teach you how to make it at home. First, we'll set you straight on coagulation as we tell you how milk turns from fluid to firm curds. Then we'll all roll up our sleeves to turn curds into the beautiful balls that we know as fresh mozzarella. Taste several samples of fresh pasta filata (pulled curd) style cheeses (think Mozzarella, Bufala, Burrata, oh my!), enjoy a glass of wine, and bring home your own mozzarella masterpiece.
