DEBBIE UHRIG <\/strong>is a class cook and one of the cooking presenters at Silver Dollar City.<\/span><\/h1>\n

<\/strong>There\u2019s always something new to see or do in Silver Dollar City, just named by AOL Travel as one of the top ten \u201cBest Christmas Lights Displays\u201d in the country.\u00a0 The problem is finding the time to do it all.\u00a0 After several family trips to that wonderland of crafts and entertainment, I carved out just one hour for myself to take a class at the Culinary & Craft School.<\/p>\n

The school offers a variety of one-hour classes each month and the schedule can be found online at sdcculinarycraftschool.com or by calling 1-800-831-4Fun.\u00a0 My class featured side dishes for Thanksgiving or Christmas and ran from 4:00 p.m. until 5:00 p.m.\u00a0 Class cook, Debbie Uhrig and her kitchen helper, Mary Ann Corbin, demonstrated the fine art of making homemade noodles, classic dressing, and a cranberry gelatin salad.<\/p>\n

The spacious kitchen in the 1880s replica of a farmhouse would make any cook green with envy.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The room was packed and every seat was filled on a recent Saturday during the Old Time Christmas celebration when Debbie started explaining that noodles over mashed potatoes are a very popular side dish in Kansas.<\/p>\n

With just four ingredients and a lot of muscle behind her rolling pin, she rolled out the noodle dough into a very thin rectangle and then sliced it into desired widths.\u00a0 Noodles need to dry for at least two hours before they can be cooked, so the noodles Debbie cooked in class were actually rolled out in a previous class.<\/p>\n

From noodles, it was on to the dressing.\u00a0\u00a0 Debbie prefers to use sourdough bread and real chicken stock in her dressing, but that is a matter of taste.\u00a0 Dressing, however, can be personalized just by adding apples, raisins, dried cranberries, nuts, mushrooms, saltines, cornbread, peppers, cooked sausage, diced turkey, giblets, cinnamon or nutmeg.\u00a0\u00a0 To get good homemade chicken stock, put a chicken in a crockpot with bay leaves, onion, celery, salt and pepper and let it cook all day.<\/p>\n

The refreshing cranberry salad is simple enough for a child to make.\u00a0 Two boxes of Cranberry Jello are dissolved in two cups of boiling water.\u00a0 Then\u00b8a can of drained crushed pinapple and one can of whole cranberry sauce are blended into the Jello.\u00a0 Nuts are added last before refrigerating.\u00a0 Pour into a 9 x 13 pan and refrigerate until set.\u00a0 Cut into squares and serve on a bed of lettuce.<\/p>\n

The best part of the class is sampling what the cook made and getting the recipes to take home.\u00a0 Here is the recipe for homemade chicken and noodles.\u00a0 Debbie said a bag of homemade noodles tied with a bow and the recipe attached makes a great little holiday gift.<\/p>\n

No matter how you slice it, at $12 plus tax per class, the Culinary and Crafts School at Silver Dollar City is a bargain.\u00a0 Seating in the Demonstration Kitchen is open 10 minutes prior to your scheduled class, available on a first-come basis as you check in at the Culinary & Craft School, which is located just past the entrance to Echo Hollow\u00ae Amphitheatre.\u00a0Reservations may be purchased online, by calling 800-475-9370 or at the Culinary & Craft School.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
