During this class young chefs will create a gourmet grilled cheese sandwich using simple ingredients. We will be using sourdough bread, sliced apple, smoked gouda cheese, and bacon to create a delicious, gourmet, grilled cheese sandwich! Students will have an opportunity to speak during class as I do not like "all mute" classes. I enjoy when students share their opinions and own anecdotes. During class we will start with a short introduction of all learners, review materials and ingredients, and we will dive into the recipe. I will be actively demonstrating, instructing, and cooking at the same time as the young chefs. During this class we will be using a small paring knife to cut an apple, we will also be preparing our grilled cheese sandwiches on a hot stove top. Some parental guidance may be needed during these times. Allergen warning**this class uses recipes that may contain wheat, dairy, soy, etc, please contact me for any allergen needs or substitution questions

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello there! My name is Mary and I'm a professionally trained chef with experience in restaurants, country clubs, catering, and institutional cooking. I love to train young chefs in the "hows" and "whys" of cooking so every meal will be delicious! I thoroughly believe in hand on instruction, for cooking there is no other way. There is a ton of math, science, and creativity involved in cooking, so I try to feature those elements as well whenever I can.
My sister is a teacher and I have learned a lot of good tips and tricks for introducing a love of literacy to young children! I enjoy reading aloud to my family and like to offer classes that involve reading and snacking!
I enjoy having inquisitive learners in my classes, you will not find a class that's all PowerPoint or an all mute class from me. I love for students to ask questions, be curious, and make comments. I love to eat, travel, read, laugh, and spend time with my kids and family. I also am passionate about arts and crafts and love to get messy once in a while with glitter!
If you have a child that's passionate about culinary arts please message me about one-on-one cooking lessons and/or sessions. I can also do private birthday parties where we can cook or bake together.
