2000 4th Ave, Seattle, WA 98121

RACHEL BELLE is the creator and host of the podcast Your Last Meal, a James Beard Award finalist, and host of The Nosh with Rachel Belle on Seattle’s Cascade PBS. She spent twenty years as a broadcast journalist and has won numerous awards.


Rachel is also a food writer, a recipe tester and has just published her first book Open Sesame which is all about tahini! Like a little black dress, tahini can seamlessly transition from day to night, from savory to sweet. Tahini is packed with nutritional benefits.

By the end of class you will have a new appreciation of this often overlooked and underutilized ingredient.

  • Congee with Sesame Soy Mushrooms & Jammy Korean Marinated Eggs
