Cooking Class - Fundamental Knife Skills - Portland

What You’ll Do

Learn how to properly wield your kitchen knives with confidence in this hands-on class.

Chef Gene imparts to you perhaps the most crucial element of home cookery: fundamental knife skills. This class will involve both demonstration and hands-on knife care and handling practices. Chef Gene asks that you bring a chef’s knife and paring knife so you can learn how to both sharpen and hone the knives correctly.

Once you understand safe handling and the appropriate knives used for chopping, mincing, slicing, dicing, and chiffonade, you will put your new knife skills to good use to prepare and enjoy three delicious hors d'oeuvers.

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

What a truly memorable evening learning so much from an expert teacher and consummate chef who is the former head of the Portland Culinary Institute. I highly recommend that everyone who would like raise their cooking skills to the next level take a class with him.

Gene was a lot of fun to work with and I appreciated him giving my team some fine instruction. I would definitely do this again. I've also forwarded the Cozymeal.com info to another larger team at our office so that they can also do this.

Chef Gene did an amazing job! The food he had us prepare was delicious and our entire group took away a ton of knowledge. He is excellent at teaching, but in a way that is approachable and fun. He was a joy to be around. I highly recommend him!
