Course Description: This class will introduce participants to fundamental cutting techniques used in everyday cooking. Participants will refine their grip, learn essential cuts for various ingredients, and reinforce safe and efficient practices.
Participants are encouraged to drop off their own knife earlier in the week for complimentary sharpening. We will also have well-maintained, sharp knives available for use in class.
Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this 90-minute class, participants will be able to:
* Demonstrate a confident and efficient knife grip
* Understand the applications of different basic cuts
* Safely and efficiently prepare common vegetables
* Practice basic knife care and maintenance
Details: classes are held on Sundays from 4:30-6pm at Courthouse Square in Downtown Tacoma. These private sessions cost $500 and can accommodate up to 6 participants. We need to coordinate schedules with the restaurant that allows us to use their kitchen so please contact ahead of purchase to nail down the date.
We welcome cautious, culinary-curious kids age 13+ when taking the class alongside an adult. We will be standing for class, but do have stools available for those who'd prefer to be seated.
