A fair trade

Have you ever met Stephen Skelton? Or, more importantly I suppose, do you like a good homemade duck prosciutto, fresh pasta with steaming ragu, and a perfectly arranged bowl of littlenecks, with a cheese plate for desert?

I thought so. Me too. The other night we held another one of those Community Suppers, with Mary DeBartolo, who heads up the Slow Food chapter around here, and Stephen cooked. It was held at the Wine List in Hyannis, and it was absolutely wonderful. We had forty guests, lots of wine, and especially tasty littlenecks. Sarah Robin from the Flying Fish/Hillcrest Pizza and Chelsea Vivian from Edible Cape Cod and I served, running around in all-black, carrying plates and washing dishes and sneaking into the kitchen for goblets of wine and stolen prosciutto...

"Thank you for the superb "Pasta and Breads" cooking program. I have been fortunate to attend a number of similar programs, and I must say you folks are way ahead of the pack.

I really enjoyed Steve's presentation... it was a real treat to have access to a talented chef who truly knows and enjoys what he does."
- Rich Howard, High Pointe Inn, West Barnstable
