Theresa R.Reviewed on 09/03/17I taught myself to cook years ago and finally decided to acquire some basic skills from a pro. This class was perfect for me. In the first 1.5 hours Chef Elizabeth covered how knives are constructed, when and how to hone, the differences between western and eastern knives, how to chop a wide variety of fruits and vegetables, the importance of personal preference in knife choice, and more. In the final half hour of the class we tried out the techniques she demonstrated with a wide assortment of knives she made available for us. I learned I’ve been using knives inefficiently and just making cooking harder on myself than I needed to. I now know what knife I want to buy and how to use it! Thanks Chef!

This was an incredible class! The information presented was very practical and useful. The class had a good mix of demonstration time as well as practice time. It was nice to have a small class size, so we could all ask questions without it becoming overwhelming. Elizabeth also provided yummy food for the class, which was definitely a plus!
