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 fully involved in the prep and 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.
There is no need to have any previous cooking experience, just a love
of food and a willingness to experiment!
The dishes you will learn to cook
In each
class 3 dishes will be covered as well as the pastes and sauces that go
with them. For curry dishes, all curry pastes are made from
scratch.
See our
Class Calendar for dates and menus.
