Opportunity description

The Cooking Academy announces a half-day advanced course in knife skills in the UK. Good knife skills can make a huge difference in the kitchen, saving you time and allowing you to focus on the fun part of the kitchen which is cooking. Having good knife skills will make food preparation easy and will reduce cooking time significantly. Plus, as you become proficient in preparing your own food, you'll enjoy cooking and become more confident in the kitchen. People with good knife skills are also more likely to try new dishes and experiment in the kitchen. This course will teach you how to handle knives safely and confidently, how to choose the right knife for the task at hand, how to maintain it, and you will also learn the best cutting techniques in general and dicing in particular.

Benefits

You will learn both of the following in this course:

How to use the right knife confidently and safely.
How to prepare vegetables, fruits and herbs efficiently.
How to make delicious tomato sauce.
You'll be cooking a stir-fried dish of spicy chicken and vegetables that you've already learned how to prepare.
New skills, recipes and lots of tips to become a master in the kitchen.
This course will suit vegetarians and those with gluten intolerance as well.
