Class Experience

My Aunt Elaine shared her tips for planning and serving a delicious Thanksgiving meal.  Her motto was to plan ahead and stay organized.  To be honest, homemade bread takes time but the time is worth the investment.  Students can use this recipe for Thanksgiving or any time.  This is a freeze ahead time-saving recipe.

In this class, students will learn to make Parker House and pull-apart of dinner rolls IN ADVANCE.  Meal prep is a time-saving skill.   I will provide a shopping ingredients list, recipe, plenty of interaction, and storage tips. Classes include slides, step by directions, guidance, coaching, and some LIVE demonstrations.  Students are encouraged to ask questions.  I will be giving instructions and asking comprehension questions throughout the lesson.  We will end our bread making session when the rolls are oven ready and our cooling spot is set.

Learn the benefits of measuring ingredients ahead of time 
Organize for success and save time  
Knead dough to develop structure but avoid density

I have an extensive kitchen history that includes baking.  I come from a line of great cooks.  My Aunt Elaine, grandmother, and father were legends.  I was fortunate to attend Home Economics class in High School.  By 16, became a self-taught cake decorator.  I went on to take formal classes from CIA( Culinary Institute of America) graduates and worked under few chefs.  But my all time favorite class was Food Chemistry.  Most of my cooking experience has been gained in other people's kitchen in Sweden, Japan, St. John V.I., and throughout the United States.  I have taught students as young as 2 years old to adults.  I am certified in Food Sanitation and Safety.  I am available to host group classes, gatherings, and parties.  My classroom goal is to emphasize the importance of preparation, knowledge, and patience.  My teaching style is interactive.  My classes build kitchen confidence, sanitation awareness, and viable skills.
