Just think, that recipe you've been hoarding may be just the ticket you need to create profits from your kitchen! Throughout the years there have been local bakers who provided delicious fresh baked goods for their community. The course begins Monday, January 05, 2009. Make 2009 the year you start your “Home-Based Bakery”!

Soup is a food that is made by combining ingredients such as meat and vegetables in stock or hot boiling water, until the flavor is extracted, forming a broth. Many forms of cooking remove the essential nutrients from vegetables, but soups retain most of the essential vitamins and mineral and make a nourishing and healthy meal. Join Denay as she prepares a savory Creole Gumbo and shares why soup is making a serious comeback as an American Staple.
