"Really fun and very informative" ~ one student's description of a recent class.

  1. Our goal is to get you excited about cooking again, regardless of your experience. We WILL get you jazzed!
  2. We'll show you how easy it is to create great tasting meals using ingredients and techniques some of which you maybe unfamiliar with. We love to introduce new ingredients and explore foods from around the world.
  3. Classes cover a wide range of topics from fish cookery to vegetarian cookery and include recipes and techniques to easily create new and exciting dishes to impress your friends and family.

You will have some hands-on participation in every class. The best part is eating the many great dishes we prepare for every class. We suggest you "bring an appetite"! #4. we will discuss ways to stock a personalized "pantry" for your home kitchen, for quick and easy dinner preparation.

Dinner doesn't have to be a "chore"! You will learn chef secrets for making the ordinary into something extraordinary and all the while making cooking fun! These classes are topical and not beginner basics although beginners are certainly encouraged to take these classes. We have a good time in these classes so don't miss out. You'll meet some new people and laugh a lot!

Depending on the subject matter we may prepare a soup or appetizer....a salad, an entree (or several entrees)...and a dessert. The class will then sit down and enjoy a meal that they have participated in creating... Class size is limited to eight. Our evening class are on Monday's from 6 to 8:00 PM (Each class is $55) Saturday at noon through the fall we conduct free cooking demonstrations at the "Thyme to Cook.. A Kitchen Store.
