Learn to really understand this thing called cooking with this interactive lecture.



2 x 1 hour Class size 2 to 100 guests     $60


From the moment our ancestors learned to cook over a fire, we expanded our ways in doing so by creating clay pots, steel pans, ovens, crock pots, and air fryers. But in essence, we still use heat to cook.
This two-part course is aimed to help you understand when to use what cooking technique and tool, and why. It really is simpler than it seems especially in the way we will explain it to you.
In the first class, your instructor will teach you all about the main cooking techniques, what they are, and how they are related. This class will give you a bird's eye view of all things we call cooking. It’ll help you understand why and how we cook our food.
The second class focuses on how to use cooking techniques in your daily cooking, what tools to use, and what alternatives you have. This class will show you what experienced cooks “intuitively” know, aka have learned over time by simply doing.
After this series, you will have a better understanding of what recipes want you to do, and how you can switch things up if you want or need to. You will wonder why no-one ever explained the cooking techniques in this way to you.
This course is open to all levels of cooking experiences. It will give beginner cooks a kick-start in learning what cooking is all about and help overcome that “whelp, where to start” feeling. More experienced home cooks will love this class to help connect the dots and get a better understanding of what you are doing and why.
Note This is not a traditional cooking class, but an interactive lecture.

"Learning to cook is all about learning what works best for you in the kitchen."
There are so many ways to cook that one ingredient, that one dish; and which one you choose can depend on your time and tools available, preferred taste and texture, mood, and even the weather.
In her classes, chef Edie loves to focus on 1 cooking technique, 1 dish, 1 ingredient or 1 method only. This way we can dive deep into the subject which gives you the knowledge and encouragement to loosen up around recipes. We won't be just following a recipe, but we will talk a lot, discuss and learn from each other. So you can become a more confident and creative cook too!
Who is chef Edie Dourleijn?
Chef Edie was one of the first food bloggers of the Netherlands, attended culinary school to spice up her cooking and to learn all is possible. Then she taught curious home cooks like she was all the fun and interesting things she had learned.
After moving to California, she started her company creative cook co to mentor people looking for a lifestyle change, spending more time in the kitchen and encouraging home cooks to become free of recipes.
Chef Edie loves cooking with vegetables, and gets her inspiration from all over the world, the Mediterranean area in particular. She is a curious omnivore and hates to waste food.
