Eben Jones Classroom

Join us for a cookbook club-meets-potluck at Peterborough Town Library!

This month, your dish must come from Samin Nosrat's cookbook - Salt, Fat, Acid, Heat! Books are available at the Help Desk for check out or browsing. 

*Over 1 million copies sold * New York Times bestseller * Winner of the James Beard Award and multiple IACP Cookbook Awards * Available as a Netflix series *

Transform how you prep, cook, and think about food with this visionary master class in cooking by Samin Nosrat that distills decades of professional experience into just four simple elements—from the woman declared “America’s next great cooking teacher” by Alice Waters.

Please email Rebecca the name of the dish you plan to make so there are no duplicate dishes. Her email is renman@peterboroughnh.gov

How does it work?

The Dinner Club gathers on the second Thursday of the month in the Eben Jones Classroom. Each month will feature a new cuisine or cooking theme.

Every month we will try a new cuisine or cooking theme. Share your cooking tips and tricks and indulge in lively discussions that will spice up your culinary adventures. Hosted by PTL’s Program & Outreach Librarian, Rebecca, we meet our neighbors, make new friends, and have fun trying delicious new foods!

Plates, bowls, napkins, basic utensils, sparkling water and green tea are provided. Please bring your own serving ware and trivets (if needed). For more information please email Rebecca at renman@peterboroughnh.gov


This program is free and open to all. Please note that library parking is not guaranteed and Thursday evenings are a busy night at the library. Patrons who are able are encouraged to take advantage of Peterborough’s walkable downtown by parking in the Depot Square or Riverwalk lots.
