My wife enrolled in the CC cooking lesson near our place and last nite was the 1st lesson. Its S$55 for 8 lessons of chinese restaurant cooking. According to her: The cooking is done by the teacher and they were given notes to keep up with the lesson. They would crowd ard the stove as the teacher prepare the ingredients. The aunties were pretty territorial... did she tell u abt the attendees who asked the teacher everythig and anything ?? eg, like where to buy Sunquik concentrate or chilli sauce or soya sauce ?

Nope. Out of the 15 of them, only my wife and another lady is beginner. The rest are all aunties and they are good at cooking themselves. These aunties really have too much time on their hands.

No basic cooking lessons. I need to be introduced to the various spices, veggies, parts of meats, etc........ I only know how a chilli looks like and the rest are stranger to me. then you should walk around supermarkets to familiarise yourself with the different types of ingredients and spices and meats and vegetables and fishes Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skunk Clutched August 22, 2009 Share August 22, 2009 personally, no point learning how to cook, if u don't cook frequently, or else u r just wasting the knowledge u have paid to learn, not to mention the time invested. I've never attended any cooking classes, but i read cookbooks and i watch cooking shows. Most imptly, as a househusband, i cook daily, almost every single meal. When u cook that often, u have a chance to practice and refine the recipes and correct mistakes made "the last time". Anyone wanna see more pics? hehe Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I need is some basic cooking lessons that intro me and my wife to the various spices, cooking styles and so on. We do not want to go to a cooking class and just follow what the chef is doing. Like monkey see monkey do. We need someone to teach us the basic so that we can create our own dishes or make our instant noodles more delicious rather than just add in the msg packet. Something like when I order noodles at food centre, they would do a mix of sauces. Then put the noodle in hot water, then into cold water and then into hot water. Take out, put in bowl of pre-mix and stir it. Add garnish + fish ball + mince meat. And serve to customer. Last sunday, my wife n I tried to cook mee rubus. Bought the instant mix from supermarket and did it. End result, it was tasteless and yucky!!! We threw away the remaining and had tibits for dinner. i dont mind teaching you the basics f.o.c,but it has to be done at your kitchen and you pay for ingredients. oh im a jap chef by the way.
