Description
At Hampstead Cuisine, the approach and individuality is why so many people have attended cookery courses over the years. The philosophy extends beyond the normal realms of a place where learning to cook is its only function often associated with cookery schools but infact a lifestyle centre where one enjoys culinary arts and shares the end experience within a lavish Baroque environment. The culture at the cooking schools is unique as the emphasis is to really teach; there is a running commentary and explanation on most ingredients or components used - differences in olive oil grades, preparation of the allium (onions, leeks, shallots etc) family, why some oils like sesame sometimes need a carrier, the importance of sautéing spices, the affects of heat and oxygen in a pan, the salt and sugar components in bread making and more.
