Class Experience
Let's travel around the world via food, in my Cooking Around the World series! We will be making popular dishes from Vietnam, Japan, Greece, Italy, Mexico and more! In this one-time class, we will be making Pho, a traditional noodle soup dish from Vietnam. In this class students will learn by doing! There will not be any power points or slide shows; we will jump right into the kitchen and get to cooking! In this class, we will begin at the prep of the food and end with a yummy completed...
PHO BROTH INGREDIENTS: 1 large white onion 3-inch piece of fresh ginger 5 star anise 4 whole cloves 3 (3-inch) cinnamon sticks 2 cardamom pods 1 tablespoon whole coriander seeds 8 cups good-quality beef stock (or chicken or vegetable stock) 1 tablespoon brown sugar 2 teaspoons fish sauce fine sea salt, to taste PHO SOUP INGREDIENTS: 8 ounces raw steak, very thinly sliced (or chicken, pork, or shrimp) 7 ounces uncooked thin rice noodles 1/2 tablespoon of oil (sesame works great for this dish, but olive oil or veggie oil will work too!) This will feed 2-3 people! *Additional garnishes: fresh herbs (cilantro, mint, and/or Thai basil), bean sprouts, lime wedges, thinly-sliced chiles (Thai bird chiles or jalapeños), thinly-sliced onions (green onions or white onions), sauces (hoisin and/or sriracha). *Please bring whatever you would like to add, not all of the additional garnishes are necessary :) Kitchen tools needed: one large pot for broth, one medium/large skillet for onion, ginger and meat cooking (we will use twice), one medium/large pot to boil noodles, stove top utensils, mesh strainer (a normal colander will not work, as we need to strain out herbs. if you do not have a mesh strainer, a re-useable tea holder will work to place herbs in), knife, cutting board.
1 hour 10 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.
This is a cooking class that involves the use of the stove, oven, or knives. Parents must be present in case assistance or emergencies. Students may occasionally need to finish baking a dish after the scheduled time ends. It is the your responsibility to review the ingredients each week and to let me know if there are any allergies so I can help you find an alternative. Thank you!
