Suddenly there is awareness of new cuisines being available in specialty restaurants. People are keen on sampling new dishes and keeping their taste buds alive. There is enough scope for culinary talent to flourish that can help everyone to experience new menus. It helps mums to cook up delectable meals, it helps chefs to make better versions of well known dishes and today it is no secret that grandmothers are willing to share their secret ingredients and spices.
Vast literatures on cookery books are available. Cookery classes by skilled cooks are common in many neighbourhoods. Some people are taking the trouble of organising classes by inviting chefs from out of town or even holding demonstrations in five star kitchens. Not anyone and everyone can conduct cookery classes. In most cases, special classes require proper venues that will help in conducting the cooking process. It should be easy for participants to watch and later ask questions. Many shopping malls are conducting experimental classes in the lobbies. Not a very good idea but they are only promoting a particular brand of product like oil or spice company.
The best way to organise a cookery class is to have pre-registration and fees for entrants. These way only genuine participants come for the class. The show should also be for the minimum amount of people, so that the chef who is conducting the class gets to interact with them at the end of the show. The class also be organised on a day and time when it will be suitable to all. Regular classes can be organised by teaching new techniques (it cannot be cooking all the time).
Sometimes people need to know how to source the ingredients and how to do pre-cooking. This also becomes a valuable lesson for all the participants. Most cookery classes' experts teach only how to cook a meal at home. Sometimes cooking for men, children or larger group meals for banquets, parties and catering can also be instructed. This adds spice and value to the cooking class. Sometimes the participants' can be encouraged to bring their own recipes for the benefit of the others. Sharing different recipes can be a good experience. One can enlist the services of experts in microwave cooking, baking, traditional cooking, tandoori cooking styles, and lesser known ways to enhance the experience.
