Bring your nutrition questions and issues for the dietitian. Before each cooking class we give knife sharpening lessons. Bring your own knives or learn to sharpen ours. Once the meal is cooked we sit and eat together. It’s an unpretentious, friendly and fun team building exercise. References upon request.
My favorite menu is Chicken Shawarma Skewers (spiced roasted chicken), roasted vegetables, a Mediterranean Meze Platter of tabbouleh (fresh herb and grain salad), labneh (lemon honey yogurt dip) and muhammara (roasted red pepper and walnut dip) with whole grain pita and Feta Herb Stuffed Medjool Dates made with French imported feta. It provides just enough work for everyone to be involved as much or as little as they like. The presentation is beautiful and most of my cooking clients are very focused on Mediterranean eating for their health.
