This intensive cooking class series will be geared toward the beginner- to intermediate-level home cook. Our curriculum will cover all the important skills and techniques needed to become efficient, knowledgeable, and thoughtful cooks.

Over the course of 4 weekly classes, you’ll learn: Knife Skills, Mise en Place, Roasting, Baking, Searing and Classic Sauces. And instead of adhering to strict recipes, we’ll guide you through methods and formulas that can be applied to all sorts of dishes.What to expect:

  • The format is based on building a three-course meal to be enjoyed at the end of class, with recipes strategically designed to cover essential techniques.

  • While some food allergies and intolerances can be accommodated, please note that we may be cooking with eggs, dairy, nuts, poultry, beef, pork and fish. Please inquire if you are unsure if this class will be a good match for your dietary needs.

  • Each class will end with a meal, shared at the table, with discussion encouraged.

  • Price is per person, and includes all 4 classes and diner at each class.

Date: Sundays in April (4/2, 4/9, 4/16, 4/23), 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm
