Cooking Experience Days: Explore the complex flavours of Vietnam during this hands-on full day class. Prepare a variety of classic dishes – using fresh, readily available ingredients – and take home everything you make! Your lesson takes place in a top cookery school, dedicated to providing a high standard of teaching, whilst emphasising ingredients’ nutritional benefits. Class sizes are kept small, so expect plenty of one-to-one tuition throughout the day. Over six hours, you’ll learn to follow several authentic recipes – including those for beef pho soup, green papaya salad, summer rolls and lemongrass chicken. You’ll discover the subtleties that distinguish Vietnamese from other Asian cuisines, and master the delicate balance of its essential herbs and spices. Lunch is prepared by the group, and includes a complimentary wine, beer or soft drink. Not only will you leave with a tasty Tupperware feast – you’ll also have gained the know-how to recreate and adapt more fragrant dishes at home. The Vietnamese Cookery Course, in Hertfordshire, is an accessible introduction to a deliciously healthy cuisine. An Experience Days voucher would brighten a globe-trotting love one’s day.
