Have you heard about the recent baking webinars hosted by Prickly Pear Bakehouse? Now that the temperatures are rising, it’s time for a (NO) Baking Webinar. Karma members and those who are curious about Karma will have the opportunity to learn how to make Ontario Strawberry Mousse and Zesty Lemon Granita. Invite your friends! Karma-member, Inayat, has sought out culinary adventures around the world and she’s willing to share her know-how with us. On the weekends, she spends time in the kitchen, working on her side-hustle: Prickly Pear Bakehouse.
Hustle along and register for this FREE virtual event. Mark your calendars for Sunday, July 18 from 11 to 12:15, EST.
Please send an email to cookwithkarma@karmacoop.org to register. Your personalized event link and recipe details will be emailed to you closer to the date. A blender would be useful.
So, what is granita? Inspired by Arabic sherbet, Sicilian granita combines the creaminess of gelato with the granularity of sorbet – the result is like shaved ice! Original flavours included rose, sandalwood, lemon, orange, and pineapple. Popular flavours today include pistachio, almond, coffee, mulberry, and lemon.
Granita is generally enjoyed at breakfast or as a refreshing snack. Best of all, it can be made at home.
Although this is a FREE event, we’re asking participants to consider making a small donation to a local food bank to help our neighbours at this time. We’re so inspired by the grassroots community fridge/food box initiatives. Every little bit helps.
