culinary education adventure in the art of gluten-free living. The Art &
Science of Gluten-Free Gastronomy(TM), presented by GF Culinary Productions,
Inc. of Denver, is an eleven month lecture series that will provide those
with an interest in gluten-free cooking and baking an in-depth format to
learn the art and science behind the cuisine as presented by local experts

First to take place in the historical elegance of The Phipps Mansion in
Denver (the hosting venue of the former G8 Summit), each monthly lecture
will focus on a specific topic of gluten-free cuisine and nutrition led by a
local expert and followed by a gluten-free cooking demonstration presented
by a featured chef of Denver. Scrumptious chef recipe tastings for the
audience will top off each presentation. The event’s Season Sponsors
include Bęte Noire Chocolates, Bob’s Red Mill Natural Foods, Celia’s Gourmet
and P.F. Chang’s China Bistro.
A glimpse into the 2007 Season of presentations includes: A Farewell to
Wheat and A Grain for All Seasons lead by Karen Falbo of Vitamin Cottage
Natural Grocers and Award-Winning Executive Chef Elise Wiggins of Panzano

amaranth flour in her recipe demonstration of Feta, Tarragon, Truffle filled
Amaranth Tortellini with an Orange Hazelnut Buerre Noisette. Karen Falbo

nutritional profiles of ingredients, as well as provide strategies for
