SARATOGA SPRINGS — Saratoga Performing Arts Center announces CulinaryArts@SPAC: The Miracle of Salt.
Featuring cocktails, culinary delights and conversation with WAMC Northeast Public Radio’s Joe Donahue and food writer Naomi Duguid, whose forthcoming book, “The Miracle of Salt,” will serve as the inspiration for the evening.
The event takes place Thursday, Sept. 8 from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. at The Pines@SPAC.
“As we enter the fall months, exploring how an essential ingredient like salt can preserve and transform food, and provide us with nourishment throughout the colder months makes for a particularly timely, fascinating and delicious topic,” Elizabeth Sobol, President and CEO of Saratoga Performing Arts Center said, in a statement. “Not only does this event perfectly fuse expert-led educational tips, responsibly sourced food and drink from our local farmers, and a completely unique experience for our community – it also indicates Saratoga Springs’ growing reputation as a culinary destination, marked by the first stop on Duguid’s international book tour.”
The expert-driven talk will give attendees insights into the miracle of salt and its essential role in preserving summer’s bounty for the months ahead. Preceding the conversation, guests can enjoy bites and beverages. Following the tastings, attendees will gain an exclusive pre-publication look at The Miracle of Salt as the first stop on Naomi Duguid’s international book tour.
Tickets are $75 and include drinks and hors d’oeuvre along with admission to the conversation. Visit spac.org for details.
