Cooking Experience Days: Master the delicate art of preparing fish and shellfish, during this intensive cookery class, in central London. Try your hand at some essential techniques and cooking methods, before sitting down to a well-earned feast.
Upon arrival at the cookery school, you’ll be welcomed with oven-fresh breakfast treats and a hot drink. Once these have been savoured, cooking will commence. Throughout the day, you’ll utilise quality, local ingredients in a variety of appetizing seafood dishes – including Mozambique-style grilled prawns, rich fish stew with lobster bisque, and a salt-crusted catch of the day. You’ll learn to skin, fillet and bone fish, and discover its astounding versatility – whether fried, baked, poached or steamed. The class will cover several delicious accompaniments – from classic hollandaise to gooseberry sauce – and provide tips for making well-informed, sustainable choices at the fish counter. Finally, you’ll gather around the table to sample the delicious results, and enjoy a selection of complementary wines – plus dessert!

Fish and Shellfish Cookery Class In London Reviews

Here at Experience Days, we love cooking experiences. Especially when we have the opportunity to learn a little more about a cooking company itself. We have recently completed a partner interview with the wonderful Cookery School at Little Portland Street, to learn a part of its history and some interesting facts. This will, for sure, help towards purchasing the perfect cookery experience for yourself or a loved one.
To begin, how was Cookery School at Little Portland Street created?
Cookery School at Little Portland Street founder, Rosalind Rathouse, was a school teacher in South Africa in the 1960s and had lots of experience in catering and food – including running a successful pie factory. When a boy on his year off wanted to learn to cook but could not find a place in any of the handful of cookery schools that existed then, Ros said that she wished that she had time to teach him how to cook. With that thought Cookery School at Little Portland Street began. The following year Jake completed a course in the summer at Cookery School where he learnt to cook with confidence and skill.
Secondly, what would you say to an apprehensive first time
cook, looking to complete one of your cookery experiences?
To throw yourself into it! You’ll learn so much more by actually ‘doing’ as opposed to reading recipes and trying to decipher the techniques and even the ingredients. At Cookery School at Little Portland Street, we have courses designed especially with the beginner in mind but in all of our classes, our cooks are really good at pitching the instructions to the level of the students. This means that everyone is challenged, and everyone leaves a lesson having learnt new things, yet feeling confident in the kitchen.
Can you tell us of any celebrity faces that have visited
your wonderful cookery school at Little Portland Street?
We don’t really reach out to celebrities – that’s not our style. We welcome everyone in to learn decent home cooking. However, we did recently have a TV channel come in and film a gut health expert for an upcoming programme – we’re excited to see that aired.
There are plenty of cookery schools around, what makes yours
especially unique?
Cookery School at Little Portland Street is the most sustainable cookery school in London. We ensure that we put the planet before all else; this means that we have an almost zero waste policy, don’t use plastics, cook with organic meats, local and seasonal produce. We aim to equip our students with the confidence to cook quality, home cooked food without the fads and work hard to demystify cooking.
How would you describe Cookery School at Little Portland Street in three words?
Sustainable, unpretentious and engaging.
Do you have any exciting future plans which you wish to
share with us?
We’re constantly evolving our classes and looking to put new ones on based on the feedback from our students and what’s happening in the world. For instance, there is such a worthy demand for vegan classes, due to the increased number of people who have adopted that lifestyle, that we have extended our vegan class from 3 to 5 hours so that we can impart even more delicious recipes and knowledge to help them eat plant-based. We’re also really concerned about the extortionate amount of food that goes to waste in the UK so have created a class called Waste Matters - dedicated to the browning banana, the surplus potatoes and other bits and pieces people find themselves throwing away at the end of the week. We want to teach clever and creative ways to use up these ingredients to make easy, tasty dishes whilst reducing food waste.
Thank you, Cookery School at Little Portland Street, for finding the time to complete
one of our partner interviews. We thoroughly enjoyed reading your answers and
completely agree with you that it is such an important part of day to day life
to be environmentally friendly. We especially love the idea of your Waste
Matters cookery experience. You can view each of their experiences by clicking on the pictures!
