I wanted to share an interesting idea and thought we could exchange our thoughts. Recently, I attended a vegan cooking class, and it was truly inspiring how delicious and diverse plant-based meals can be. Has anyone here tried similar classes or have any fun culinary experiences to share? I look forward to hearing about it! Warm regards, Nina From: Jack Wong To: Nina Lopez, Mia Sullivan, Zoe Carter, Liam Sanchez, Emma Chen Date: October 18, 2024, 9:45 AM Subject: Re: Weekend Cooking Classes Hi Nina and everyone, I enjoyed your suggestions about the cooking class! It sounds exciting. I recently joined a sushi-making workshop, and it was an eye-opener to understand the techniques and traditions behind it. The art of sushi is fascinating. If anyone is interested in Japanese cuisine, I highly recommend trying a class. Has anyone else had interesting culinary experiences? Take care, Jack From: Mia Sullivan To: Nina Lopez, Jack Wong, Zoe Carter, Liam Sanchez, Emma Chen Date: October 18, 2024, 11:20 AM Subject: Re: Weekend Cooking Classes Hello all, Jack, that sushi workshop sounds delightful! I've tried making sushi at home, but it must be quite rewarding to learn from a pro. Recently, I participated in a baking class focusing on European pastries. The variety of techniques was impressive—from perfecting croissants to creating delicate tarts. I’m considering a Mediterranean cuisine class next. Has anyone explored different cuisines?

I’ve been wanting to try baking them myself. I recently took a chocolate-making class and the experience was sweet and indulgent. It’s amazing how much there is to learn about chocolates' origin and craft. If anyone is passionate about desserts, I suggest trying it. Nina, what was your favorite part of the vegan class? Best, Zoe From: Liam Sanchez To: Nina Lopez, Jack Wong, Mia Sullivan, Zoe Carter, Emma Chen Date: October 18, 2024, 2:15 PM Subject: Re: Weekend Cooking Classes Hi all, Zoe, chocolate-making is high on my list! Mia, pastries sound delicious too. I’m planning to attend a barbecue masterclass soon to enhance my grilling skills. I’d love recommendations for sauces and rubs as I explore. Nina and Zoe, have you discovered any unique flavors or techniques in your classes?

I recently joined a fusion cooking workshop focusing on Asian-Latin flavors, which introduced me to a unique blend of spices and herbs. It’s remarkable how flavors come together across cultures. For my next journey, I’m considering a wine and cheese pairing class. Nina, did you get to recreate any dishes from the vegan class? Regards, Emma
