You

a dish you would like to learn that is not listed please ask as
most Thai dishes can be covered.
About the classes - approach and style
Classes are
hands on and practical so that by the end of the class
you will be able to prepare and cook the dishes at home. Rather
than a cooking demonstration, you will be doing most of the prep and all
the cooking! Classes are intended to be relaxed and fun, reflecting the Thai approach to
life.
Thai cooking is extremely flexible and, although you will be given recipes, the emphasis
is on understanding the ingredients
and flavours and using your senses to make adjustments while you cook.
Your class
starts with an introduction to Thai ingredients (and
substitutes) and the key flavours in Thai cooking - sweet, sour, salty
and spicy. Through the class and an 'active tasting' approach,
you will learn how to create these flavours and, importantly, how to
balance them.
At the end of
the class you will have a set of recipes and some delicious dishes to
take home and share (enough for a meal). The ingredients used in the class are always high quality
and Thai ingredients are freshly imported (wherever possible) and
sourced from local Thai and oriental shops.
There is no need to have any previous cooking experience, just a love
of food and a willingness to experiment!
Classes
at your home
It is also
possible to have the experience of a private class in your own home, for individuals or groups of up to
6 people. One of our Thai cooks will
travel to your home and bring all the ingredients and specialist
equipment with them. This can be a really fun way to combine learning to
cook Thai food, having a delicious Thai meal, and perhaps even a glass
or two of wine, all in the comfort of your own home!
