“The best cooking class you can take in London.” Evening Standard
Why we love it
There’s nothing quite like the feeling of sitting down to eat a meal you’ve made yourself. Cooking has long been billed as ‘therapeutic’ and a way to de-stress, especially when living in the bustling city of London. Escape to the quaint area of Rickmansworth to take your hand at being a chef for a morning or afternoon. Choose your favourite cuisine, don your apron and relax into the kitchen.

- Choose from a variety of themes such as: Indian, Italian, Thai, Knife Skills

Exclusive to TRULY

Description
Described by founder, Kumud Ghandi, as ‘The Alchemy of Food’, the approach that The Cooking Academy takes is that of science and passion. A combination of chemical composition, alongside Ayurvedic and herbal principles creates cuisine that is not only healthy, but holistically clean, cared for and completely nutritious.
The teaching methodology is based on a journey of discovery, peppered with hints and tips to provide technical understanding of why certain processes are necessary in cooking to bring out the best in the food. All recipes used at The Cooking Academy are centred on simplicity so it makes replication very easy.
Small groups create a warm and inviting atmosphere, inspiring connection and community as well as personal attention and tutelage. Locally sourced ingredients are at the heart of every dish, with the importance placed on the health benefits of eating the right types of food.
During your Half-Day Cookery Course, you’ll have the option of selecting your favourite cuisine to cook, including options such as Indian, Italian, Thai or even mastering your Knife Skills. You’ll learn how to prepare ingredients and create a selection of plates under the theme of your choice. You’ll receive a starter pack, including all spices and recipes used throughout your course, as well as an exclusive gift of silver measuring spoons to take home and use in your kitchen.
