Cooking
For this plant-based cooking workshop, we will be utilizing recipes from a number of different Asian cultures, with a focus on cooking traditions created to support a plant-based diet. Whether from the Sattvic vitality-increasing diet of India or Buddhist temple foods from Korea and Japan, we will be showing you both nutritious and tasty dishes from a variety of cultures that have been creating plant-based foods for centuries.
Vegan food doesn’t have to be the drab, flavorless, meat imitating concoctions we are used to seeing in pop culture and the mainstream. Looking to cultures with a rich history in plant-based cooking, we have crafted this cooking class with a coexisting balance between taste and what is healthy for the body, mind, and planet.
The course will run instructions through 20 recipes, and you will be booking in an individual class. We will discuss how to plan plant-based meals at home and the overriding philosophies, both nutritional and mindful, underpinning Asian traditions of vegan cooking. We will also be showing you how to organize and stock your kitchen, to make crafting excellent plant-based meals an easy and enjoyable experience.
This class is suitable for people who want to enhance their home cooking skills with new techniques, or for professional or aspiring chefs who are looking to enhance their plant-based repertoire.
