Private Cooking Class with Shelagh
Cooking at home has never been so fun! Get private 1:1 coaching with Shelagh ‘side by side’ yet cooking with you from the other side of the town (or across the country!). Virtually, just you and me.
How it works:
- Book a private class.
- We will have a phone chat, and agree on a time for your class. We will talk about what you want to learn (basics, knife skills, pantry items or a particular flavor profile like Italian, Moroccan, Indian etc. for more class ideas, click the tap above). Your choice, I’m here to help you with your conundrums.
- SheCooksDesign supplies you with recipes and a shopping list. We will both shop for the same ingredients*.
- We meet via FaceTime or Zoom at the agreed time, we don our aprons and get cooking together!
*sometimes the same items on your shopping list won’t be available at your local shop, I’ll be on hand if you need to call we need to make a substitution, no worries.
We have had the pleasure of cooking with Shelagh a few times with 6 or 8 of us! Each time we learn something new that we can apply to our cooking skills, and Shelagh makes it so fun!! This has become a great tradition when our kids are home, such a fun thing to do with them.
In my private first lesson, we made potstickers and Pad Thai. It was exciting to work with new ingredients. Shelagh has given me the confidence to venture out and make several other Asian dishes. Lesson two helped me prepare for a brunch I was hosting. She had me pick one entree from each of three groups: savory, sweet, and salads. Entertaining people can be a little intimidating, but with Shelagh's support and expertise, I was able to offer a beautiful meal. Besides giving instructions on the particular recipe at hand, she also sprinkles in a lot of general cooking tips. Her culinary knowledge, relaxed attitude, and sense of humor make for a wonderful experience. I can't wait to learn more from Shelagh!
I bought a private pizza making class with Shelagh for my two grandchildren and their significant others who are in their twenties...with the caveat that I would attend with them. It was the highlight of the year—fresh pizza in Shelagh's new backyard pizza oven with all the trimmings. Not only was it a perfect evening weather-wise, but we had a delicious dinner with all the trimmings and learned many tips and tricks for making homemade pizza inside and outdoors as well.
