"This course is all about going Back to Basics, based on my book. The aim of my course is to get everyone to feel more confident in the kitchen. You will learn everything from the proper use of knives to cooking roast chickens and chocolate fondants and so much more in between" Kevin Dundon The course will run through a private Instagram account and you will be added to the Attendees list once you've subscribed. What will you receive?
A Tutorial every day for three weeks (21 video lessons), 2 live Cook Alongs every week at 7pm, a daily recommended "Recipe of the Day" to try and all your questions answered within 24 hours. There will be a Surprise Giveaway at the end for the Most Improved.
Dunbrody Cookery School has been designed to cater for all levels of cooks, from budding enthusiasts (Back to Basics) to the experienced gourmet (specialised courses). The perfect blend of demonstration and hands-on individual tuition means that you will learn practically and be able to reproduce the dishes at home in your own kitchen. Chef-Instructor Julien Clemot & Kevin Dundon will lead you through both a fun-filled and food-filled day where demonstration and hands on tuition fuse seamlessly. There's always plenty of tasting too so don't forget to bring your appetite!
