Cooking Class: Plant-Based Comfort Delights
Learn to cook tasty vegan food in this fun, hands-on cooking class.
Missing crab cakes since going plant-based? You're not alone. That's why Chef Emmanuelle has put together this engaging cooking session where you can learn to make creamy, satisfying versions of your favorite comfort foods using whole-food ingredients. You'll start by making sumptuous "crab" cakes using jackfruit, red peppers and seaweed, your own vegan mayo from scratch, crispy "chicken" nuggets using wheat protein (seitan), BBQ pulled "pork" sandwiches made from jackfruit and even chocolate peanut caramel bars for dessert. By the end of class, you'll know how to turn common plant ingredients into foods that look and taste like your favorite meat dishes.

My cousin and I had an unforgettable cooking class with Chef Emmanuelle, where we learned to make ratatouille and escargots with her expert guidance. She didn’t just teach us recipes—she showed us essential knife skills, shared fascinating culinary history, and made every step engaging and approachable. Her passion for food is contagious, and she made even the trickiest techniques feel easy with her patient, hands-on instruction. Beyond the learning, the class was so much fun! Chef Emmanuelle kept us entertained with great stories, helpful tricks, and plenty of laughter. By the end, we felt more confident in the kitchen and got to enjoy the delicious fruits of our labor. If you're looking for a cooking class that’s educational, interactive, and absolutely delightful, Chef Emmanuelle is the perfect choice! Five stars aren’t enough—she’s simply the best!

Chef Emmanuelle and her husband Ron were so amazing. They were so patient and kind. She taught us valuable knife skills along with pasta. She shared her recipes and stay with us. It was very hands on. We had plenty to take home for left overs. They were great about taking photos for us with our phones. I would recommend this to everyone if any age.
