If you follow a recipe carefully—and I’m sure you do—it should turn out beautiful and delicious every time. But some recipes aren’t tested, the writer assumes you know more than you do, or the whys aren’t fully explained.
I have successfully taught thousands of people how to
perfect the trickiest pastry on planet earth. How?
I explain the why behind key steps.
I’ll also share comical anecdotes about my own embarrassing mistakes, which will help you quickly learn tips, tricks, and techniques to become a confident, joyful cook!
You’ll hear about the treasures I learned from Le Cordon Bleu Paris, from working for farmers all across France, and from catering for some of America’s most beloved brands, including: Louis Vuitton, Williams-Sonoma, Pinterest, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdales, Alaska Airlines, The Fairmont, Airbnb, Google, Facebook, and Salesforce.
Whether you’re learning to eat plant-based, can’t chop an onion, or boeuf bourguignon is your casual Thursday go-to, if you love to eat, you’ll feel right at home.
WHY SHOULD YOU LEARN TO COOK?
Know exactly what’s in your food and create space for joyful treats
Bring something besides pita and hummus to your next dinner party (when we get to have those again!)
Never flinch at the mention of a “Meyer lemon”— it's just a hybrid of lemon and orange but the flavor difference is noticeable!
And most important? Relish some of life’s greatest pleasures: eating, sharing meals, and nurturing friends and family
We are so happy you're here. Enjoy these extra treats:
