Taste what all the FASS is about: Signature Starters with Chef Kevin Appleton of Vom Fass, Madison, WI: Thursday, May 10 - 6:30 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.

Vom Fass translates literally as 'from the cask', and this is the core concept of the brand. Often described as an Aladdin's Cave for food and drink lovers, or a candy store for grown-ups, Vom Fass stores house the nation's widest, cask-borne selection of the finest fruit vinegars, exquisite oils, selected wines, exclusive liqueurs and an incredible choice of spirits, all brought from the cask.  In this class, Chef Kevin Appleton of Vom Fass will unite cask and cheese to provide you with several dishes featuring both Carr Valley Cheese and Vom Fass products.  The “signature starters" that you will be trying include macerated stuffed dates wrapped with prosciutto, Alsatian onion Flammenkuche, savory cheese strudel with fresh herbs and apricot, seared scallops with blue cheese, bacon & balsamic, and wild mushroom cheese blintzes with spinach and arugula salad.
