Culinary Skills Series: 101

Build Your Kitchen Confidence Step-by-Step!

Want to feel more at home in the kitchen? Join our Culinary Skills Series — a hands-on journey that makes learning to cook fun, approachable, and delicious. No matter your starting point, you’ll build real skills and cook with confidence.

This three-part series moves step-by-step:

Culinary Skills 101: The Essentials – Start with the basics. You’ll sharpen your knife skills, learn how to debone and roast a whole chicken, and make two essential mother sauces: béchamel and velouté.

Culinary Skills 102: Building Depth – Let’s go deeper. In this class, you’ll master tomato and espagnole sauces, identify prime cuts of beef, and explore the science that brings it all together.

Culinary Skills 103: The Final Challenge – Ready to level up? Here, you’ll tackle fish preparation, conquer the notoriously tricky hollandaise sauce, and dip into the art of menu planning.

Each class builds on the last — we recommend taking them in order to get the most out of the experience. See all upcoming cooking classes, including Culinary Skills 102 & 103 here.

Our chef keeps things friendly, supportive, and fun. You’ll leave each class full of new techniques, fresh inspiration, and of course… great food.
