	I really enjoyed preparing the meal and I realized that I learned many techniques that I can use on other meals. I can't wait to get started on the Basics series! This is so much Fun.

		Foodie Events It's our pleasure to put together "foodie" events for our community that underscore our common interest in food and wine. Here's what we've got cooking: Click here to learn about our upcoming foodie travel events! Sacrificio In times gone by, people were more directly involved with their food, from produce to meat. Eating meat used to involve some history: a knowledge of the animal itself and how it was raised, down to its actual butchering. We believe that this knowledge is critical to a holistic understanding of the food we eat. In the past — and still today, in some countries — a village would come together to slaughter an animal, celebrating their bounty and working together to preserve what meat wouldn't be eaten right away. Culinary Communion is pleased to participate in a renewal of this tradition. Join us for our first annual Sacrificio, a day for families to come together over the slaughter of a pig and make it an event of community and compassion. Sunday, January 13, at a farm in Gig Harbor, we will gather with kids, music, and wine, to create a "village" and show gratitude for our land of plenty. Event cost is $40 which will cover live music, your lunch, and of course the pig itself and fees to the butcher. Exact time is TBD. This year's Sacrificio is full, but if you'd like to be on the waiting list, please email us.
