The Union Market vendor will be doing a vertical tasting of true Parm at 3 different ages, paired with 2 very different wines as well as paired accompaniments. You’ll discover the nuance and complexity of this classic cheese, as well as discover the history and culture surrounding it. Fromager Carolyn Stromberg will delve into the story of Parm, as well as give advice about selecting, serving, pairing, and more. The class is $39 and requires advance purchase, as ticket availability is limited. For more information, visit www.righteouscheese.com.
