Scheduled classes run from 9:30 - 4:30 and follow a largely demonstration format, though participation is encouraged. A typical day includes 9-12 recipes - all of which participants sample as a tasting menu with wines.
For bespoke classes, individuals or small groups book a day, evening or course of classes, the content of which is selected as per the needs and brief from the attendees.
Common outcomes include increased skills, confidence, knowledge, new recipes and a jolly day or evening of feasting and fun. Many of my clients are regulars and my business has grown through the years by word of mouth and client feedback.
​
Themes
The theme may be seasonal, such as Summer Holidays or Christmas; geographic, such as Mediterranean, Fusion, French, Middle Eastern or Far East; skills focussed such as Sauces, Pastry, Pasta, Soups or Knife Skills; or content specific such as Vegetarian, Fish & Seafood, Parties, Students or Batch Cooking.
Dietary Needs
Dietary needs are of course catered for and are often the basis of a class for example those wishing to exclude certain foods due to illness allergy or lifestyle considerations. Nutrition is interesting to me and knowledge gleamed through the years has helped me to devise recipes for those with special dietary needs or goals.
Wine tasting
Wine classes and tastings are offered both as stand alone classes and events and wine pairings form part of the cookery classes too. I host monthly wine tastings in Crediton and run bespoke events further afield by arrangement - contact me for details.
