If you’ve never taken a cooking class, find one that interests you and attend right away! Cooking classes are one of my favorite ways to spend a few hours: you learn something new and you get to eat (and drink!) something delicious. It’s kind of like watching the Food Network, but it’s actually happening in front of you.
There are many different styles of cooking class. Some are demonstration courses, where a chef prepares something in front of you to try. You might take notes in this style of class, or you may be provided with a packet of information to take home with you.
Then there is the hands-on class. This style of class makes you the chef. The ingredients and supplies are laid out for you, and the instructor walks you through creating the dish. In this type of class, you walk away with more hands-on skills and may try a technique you’ve never tried before.
Both styles of class have their advantages. Try one of each to find what you like!
