We are beginning our 2024 classes at The Learning Kitchen with a mix of old favorites and new offerings. We only have February up right now, but in the next couple of weeks you will also see classes for March and April appear.
our plan is to offer 1-2 classes per week up through mid-December, with a mix of sweet and savory, healthy and indulgent each month
we offer weekend daytime (some Saturdays and some Sundays) and weekday evening classes because we know folks have different kinds of schedules and free time
all classes have some kind of hands-on component, tasting component, recipes for you to take home, and class samples to take home
prices vary based on ingredient costs, class length, expertise shared
nearly all our classes are designed so people of any experience level, including beginners, can enjoy learning how to cook in a low pressure, friendly environment (if it is a more advanced class, it will say so)
our goal is to help you learn the basics and how to experiment for success
classes are designed for adults -- if you want to bring a child with you, please contact us first to learn more about the class (it could be fun for you and your tween or teen, but children cannot come without an adult partner)
Brand New Classes/Events for February 2024
Chef's Inspiration Tasting Dinner -- this is NOT a class; it is a 6-course tasting culinary adventure where Chef Mark shares whatever he is inspired to make. We expect to offer more of these in 2024. Try something new this Valentine's Day -- only enough spots for three couples. (Wed, Feb. 14)
Broths and Soups for Life -- Learn how to make a couple of vegetable and meat-based broths and soups, and how to vary ingredients to make your own future healthy, flavorful, warming, soup creations (Tues, Feb. 27)
Making Eclairs and Cream Puffs -- Learn how to make the special dough, fillings, and toppings for these indulgent treats (Sun, Feb. 18)
2023 Favorites Return in February 2024
Our chocolate-making classes were the most frequently attended in 2023, so we will keep them all in rotation for 2024 -- perhaps you want to make our own treats for your special someone's or just treat yourself! In each of these classes, you learn a particular chocolate-making technique and you get to take home what you make! These are also a favorite among people booking private parties.
Making Chocolate Snap and Shine - learn chocolate tempering while making lots of yummy chocolate bark to take home (Tues, Feb. 6)
Coloring and Filling Chocolate Truffles - learn how to make fillings for and paint your chocolates (Sat, Feb. 10)
Making Rolled Chocolate Truffles - learn what goes into a rolled truffle and how to make a few varieties (Wed, Feb. 21)
