Did you know?

Did you know that a sharp knife actually causes fewer injuries than a blunt knife? The reason you cut yourself less with a sharp knife is because it takes less force to cut through anything. Cutting becomes much harder with a blunt knife, and therefore more likely to slip around and cause an accident. Our advice is to choose the right tool for the job and use it the right way.

The class was really good. What would have made it better if we were told the agenda of the evening at the start so we knew what time stuff was going to happen, Ie – I’m going to show you skills for one hour, then you are going to put them into practice, and then we are going to eat the food you prepared at about xx o clock. That was people would know what to expect from the off. Otherwise it was a really enjoyable class and a knowledgeable teacher. I would be interested in finding out how to chop meat as well as vegetables if that is part of the next course.

Lovely teaching style and came away with some game changing techniques! Shame we didn’t learn how to cut the fish we ate though.

About your host, The Avenue Cookery School

The Avenue Cookery School is a family-run leaning business based in Wandsworth in South West London. The owner and head chef Diana began her career as a chalet chef before discovering her entrepreneurial side and founding a number of specialist food ventures. Infamously, Diana taught at The Grange Cookery School in Somerset for 7 years before starting The Avenue, where she has been ever since.

Diana is supported by her son Richard and daughter Sophie.

The food at The Avenue can be considered classic chic but full of fun twists and turns (ranging from macaroon masterclasses to gluten free baking to simple supper classes). All the classes are taught in the school's beautiful kitchen facilities in a relaxed environment.
