Private Cooking Classes


Maybe you caught me on CBC when I was featured in their story on the amazing Instant Pot. CBC send a crew to catch the action during one of my In Home, personalized Instant Pot Classes. If you and your friends want to learn in the comfort of your own home, this is for you. It's perfect for mom's groups, friend's night out, wedding shower parties etc.





Private In Home Instant Pot Classes

Private classes are catered to your group's needs, dietary restrictions and personalized just for you and your friends. I will come to your home about 1.5 hours before the class and set up, bringing my fleet of Instant Pots although I encourage people to bring their own, if they have them already.

We start with an introduction to electric pressure cooking and cover the basics of the Instant Pot. This is the time to ask any questions you have.

After that, we move on to the kitchen where everyone will partner up and be given a recipe with ingredients and will make that dish from start to finish, as I buzz around giving tips, helping out and doing whatever needs to be done.

At the end of the cooking portion, everyone will sit down to feast on the food you just made yourselves, enjoy a glass or two of wine while I clean up.


Cooking with Cannabis

My Sous Weed Class was named one of the top ten cooking classes in Toronto

Now that recreational cannabis is legal here in Canada, it's possible for everyone to have access to high quality product. Whether you are interested in making your own food for therapeutic purposes or just for fun, I will teach you how to decarb your flower and make infusions that you can use to make your own, delicious foods, using sous vide.

You can take the class at The Depanneur or I can come to your home for a private class that I can cater to your needs


Pricing
In house class prices can vary depending on menu items and number of participants but start at $100/pp with a minimum of 6 people in the GTA.

The basic class will include different dishes. All participants will receive a package including all the recipes and tips sheets.

I can travel outside the GTA with travel expenses added on but please contact me first to see if we can make it work.

Vietnamese Chicken Meatballs

Image
I have had a serious craving for bun - if you eat Vietnamese food, you know what I'm talking about. A bowl with crisp, shredded romaine lettuce, cold rice noodles, lots of chopped dry roasted peanuts, fresh mint and cilantro, shredded carrots, cucumbers and some sort of sticky, sweet bbq meat that you pour nuoc chom over and then scarf it all down like a maniac because it's so refreshingly delicious that you can't stand it?? Okay, if you don't eat Vietnamese food and don't know what I'm talking about, go find some. Honestly. So my quest today was to make some but I didn't feel like tackling the bbq pork today but The Kid loves meatballs so I thought I would whip up some sort of Vietnamese meatballs out of ground chicken and do a kind of   Bun Ga Nuong . The only thing I was worried about was the sticky, caramelized glaze on the outside when I found this recipe on the Food and Wine web site.  It's from a cook book called Small Bites by Jennifer J...

Travel Diary : Toronto to Nova Scotia 2021- First Stop, Montreal

Image
 Hello my lovlelies! The family is on our first vacation in almost two years and it's a covid friendly affair. Not ready for international travel, airports and sharing air for 8 hours, we threw our Segway Ninebot Max scooters on the roof of the car and headed east. We stopped in Montreal for the first night, thinking we would just get up early and continue on our way. HAH who is going to bitch about burrata and rose outdoors? Like that was going to happen. I booked us into the brand, spanking new Hotel St Thomas on Sherbrooke, we dropped all of our crap into the ginormous room and hit the road on the scooters. It was a Monday night, which means just about any restaurant I would want to visit is closed so we did the only thing you can do in on a Monday.... we went to Old Montreal and grabbed an outdoor table at Bevo Bar and had a lovely bottle of Rose, some pizza and apps, perfect after a long day of driving. Once we woke up, we all knew we wanted to stay another night so I took ca...

Sous Vide Pork Souvlaki

Image
I love the idea of pork souvlaki. I love the flavours, I love the charcoal flavour that the grill imparts and I love any meat that gets dipped in lots of tzatziki. What I don't love is dry, leathery meat and, unfortunately, that is almost always the case when people try to cook small chunks of lean meat over the grill. That's where sous vide comes in. I just made my regular marinade and instead of cutting the pork into bite sized pieces, I cut my pork tenderloins into 1" slices and then after 24 hours of soaking in the fridge, I sous vide them before cutting some of the disks into chunks and skewering them (I left half of them as is and grilled the medallions, which worked even better) right before we threw them on the grill for a quick char. I finally have my perfect pork souvlaki - tender, moist (OH MY GOD THAT HORRIBLE WORD AGAIN) and with all the wonderful souvlaki flavours but without the dry, overcooked bits that are almost unavoidable when you grill them fro...
