About Your Host
Founded in 2002, Home Cooking New York provides intimate and hands-on cooking classes at their Manhattan school as well as private classes in students’ home kitchens. Our clients range from absolute beginners to amateur home cooks who want to expand their culinary education.
HCNY’s classes range from the basic cooking techniques (Culinary Boot Camp for Everyone, Six Basic Cooking Techniques, How to Cook Fish, Pork Lovers’ Workshop) to cuisine-focused favorites (Indian, Thai, Korean, French Bistro, Middle Eastern, Northern Italian). Each 2 ½ hour class includes a recipe packet and has a maximum of 10 students. The class is centered around the preparation of a complete menu and culminates in a sit-down meal with your fellow students.
What we'll do
We will explore all the different ways to create flavorful sauces for different types of food, from classic “mother” sauces and pan sauces to vegetable and herb purées. This 2 & 1/2 hour class will cover: - The Mother Sauce (béchamel) - Sauces for Fish (lemon-caper butter sauce; roasted red pepper coulis) - Sauces for Steak (red wine pan sauce; mushroom ragout) - Sauces for Chicken (piccata, fresh herb sauce/pestos)
