If you're looking to spend more than a few hours at a recreational class but don’t have the time or the investment for the full-blown professional track, we’ve designed this course especially for you. In this 13-lesson program, you will cover the foundations of the culinary arts, training you to be an accomplished cook. These classes are derived from the same core curriculum as ICE’s culinary career program and will be taught by the school’s top chef-instructors. Throughout the 13 lessons, you will gain a strong understanding of cuisine and its underpinnings.
You will work in teams to execute the class menu. At the end of class, participants gather to enjoy the food they have prepared. Wine is served with meals in most classes. All class menus are subject to change. While a snack platter is offered in both morning and evening classes, you may want to consider a light snack before joining us for class. Students are encouraged to bring a light lunch or dinner to all pastry classes.

Simple and delicious are the themes for this class, which teaches you how to make fresh Italian dishes that are so good --- and easy to execute --- you'll make them for yourself, friends and loved ones again and again. Premium ingredients shine in this menu, drawing from the country's great traditions: Tuscan fennel and raddichio salad; hand-rolled meatballs; risotto Milanese and sauteed broccoli rabe with garlic.
Knowing how to use knives skillfully is the foundation of all cooking, and doesn't have to be scary or frustrating. Many home and even professional cooks don't always wield a knife correctly, however, which increases food preparation time and makes the process harder --- and less safe --- than it should be. Simply put, good knives are the foundation of a well-equipped kitchen. This class remedies all these basic issues: You will learn how to slice, dice, chop, and much more in the safest and most efficient manner. This class will even guide you through the practice of keeping your knives sharp and handling them correctly.
The history, culture and geography of Morocco are all richly evocative. It is easy to imagine yourself sipping mint tea while sitting on a terrace in Casablanca or Marrakech, or hiking the Atlas Mountains. The cuisine of Morocco reflects its Berber, Mediterranean, African and European influences, with a generous use of powerful spices. In this class, you will make some of the most acclaimed dishes of the Moroccan repertoire, including: grilled kefta (lamb) kebabs; chicken tagine with preserved lemons and olives; sweet spiced couscous; carrot salad with lemon-herb dressing and harissa.
