Just wanted to let you know that our first Parent & Child cookery course was an outstanding success....one parent and child said that they survive on take aways and for the first time cooked a wholesome meal between them for the family- one parent said 'my son will never eat that' as the child tucked into his rissotto and commented on how good it was, he'd cooked it himself and thoroughly enjoyed reaping what he'd sown!!
It was an absolute delight to pass on some of the simpler skills that I have picked up over the years, from how to chop an onion, to how to blend in the stock to get the rissotto just right, to how to use and hold a knife correctly.
All children and parents enjoyed the lesson so much they all want to continue coming to each class every week, one parent even asked if I could hold classes every night!!
I think I've started what I have set out to achieve to show the fun side of cooking to get kids cooking and to get them cooking along side their parents...all in all an oustanding start to what promises to be a successful few weks to get wholesome cookery on the map!
