Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this knife skills class:

Knowing how to use knives skillfully is the foundation of all cooking, and doesn't have to be scary or frustrating. Many home and even professional cooks don't always wield a knife correctly, however, which increases food preparation time and makes the process harder and less safe than it should be. Simply put, good knives are the foundation of a well equipped kitchen. 

This class remedies all these basic issues: You will learn how to slice, dice, chop, and much more in the safest and most efficient manner. This class will even guide you through the practice of keeping your knives sharp and handling them correctly.

Note:
We serve wine in our classes. It is against our policy for guests to bring in any type of alcoholic beverages.
