Forget potpourri: if you want your home to smell welcoming and cozy on a chilly Minnesota day, nothing beats the wafting, rich aromas of a perfectly braised dish. Stews, goulashes, soups and slow-roasted meats don’t just taste delectable, they also provide comfort and cheer during the worst of a polar vortex. In this hands-on class, Chef Manfred helps you prepare some sensational, simmering pots sure to warm the whole family.
