Fish is one of the most rewarding ingredients to cook. This hands-on masterclass is designed for food lovers who want to develop genuine fish preparation skills and learn techniques used by professional chefs.
Working alongside our chef, you’ll prepare and cook a selection of seasonal fish dishes while learning how different species should be handled, prepared and cooked. The class combines expert demonstrations with plenty of hands-on practice, giving you the opportunity to work with both round and flat fish, develop your knife skills and understand the characteristics of different fish varieties.
As each dish is completed, we’ll eat it at its best, fresh from the kitchen, any extra can be taken home. Some dishes will be prepared individually, while larger fish will be worked on as a group, allowing everyone to experience a wider range of preparation techniques.
