Facts About Cooking

  • Somewhat pertinently Isabella Mary Beeton, author of that famous Victorian tome Mrs Beeton's Book of Household Management, was born in Milk Street, London. one of the most famous cookery writers in history. Often illustrated with coloured engravings, her work was the first to show recipes in a format that is still employed today.
  • Sushi literally mean "it's sour" and is the vinegared rice, not the raw fish. The raw fish which often accompanies Sushi is actually called Sashimi.
  • Anthropologist Richard Wrangham argues that cooking was invented as far back as 1.8 million to 2.3 million years ago whilst other researchers believe that its arrival occurred as late as between 40,000 or 10,000 years ago. Despite lacking clear evidence as to cooking’s beginnings, archeological findings carbon dated to approximately 1.6 million years ago at Swartkrans and Koobi Fora in Africa suggest some substance to his hypothesis.

Customer Reviews of Cookery Class Experiences

I've never cooked Indian food before but my husband loves it - I think him buying us this cookery class was a not too subtle hint! I enjoyed learning about how to make all the different Indian dishes and it’s the first time I've seen him cook anything more complicated than spaghetti!

Margaret Heath

My husband and I attended the Saturday Morning Curry Course led by Pat Chapman. Just wanted to say how friendly and easy going Pat is and how interesting he made the curry cooking! There's so many colours and flavours that go into the curries, and we enjoyed tasting them all.

Mrs E Paige

I bought my mum a place at Nigel Brown's Pies, Pates and Terrines Masterclass as a special present. She went along to his house last week and the class was held in his kitchen, she said it was very informal and relaxed, he gave her lots of individual attention and she brought away a terrine at the end of the day that she'd made. I went round to eat it for dinner and it was delicious! Thinking about enrolling my husband ;-)
