French Fresh Fare
with Chef Linda
Chef Linda along with her daughter, Chef Sarah, cooked us a most excellent Fresh French Fare supper for 5 girls and a spouse hiding in the bedroom lol. They arrived with everything in hand and within 60 minutes we were having fresh mixed salad greens with amazing dressing along with a stacked beet and herb goat cheese medallions. Our main was Sole Meuniere with scalloped potatoes and haricots vert which were all expertly cooked, Pots du creme au chocolat did not disappoint either! They cooked, taught us french techniques along the way, served us and cleaned the entire kitchen including the stove. We ate everything it was so good. I can't wait to hire Chef Linda again!

Chef Linda came to our house and prepared a French meal: french onion soup, steak au poivre with roasted potatoes and asparagus, and creme brulee for dessert. Everything was delicious! She was fun to chat with, too. Full of great information and stories!

We had a great time with Chef Linda! We learned history, new cooking techniques, and even how to use knives properly. On top of it all, we cooked some amazing food and had a delicious dinner! The class was so much more than following a recipe and throwing some ingredients together. We learned what we were doing and why. We learned in such a way that we are not likely to forget our lessons. I highly recommend Chef Linda and her classes for a fun time, great food, and great learning!

Flavors of the Southwest
with Chef Linda
in Tucson
My wife and I gave ourselves a cooking class as a Christmas present: Flavors of the Southwest with Chef Linda of Sage Culinary - an independent contractor for Cozymeal. We learned to cook Antojito, made Pepita Caesar Dressing, had a blast making Santa Fe-Style Chile Rellenos and Pipian Rojo with Beans a la Olla, and for dessert Buñuelos and a Mexican Chocolate Sundae. We learned a lot about the food’s history (Linda is a food anthropologist!) as well as cooking techniques, prepping and roasting our own poblano chiles. I now can proudly say I know how to properly hold and use a chef’s knife. Linda was a great teacher! Great night of fun, learning, and delicious food!

Wow, we had such a great time in the Thai cooking class with Chef Linda! My partner and I were looking for some skills and recipes for Thai food and wanted a fun experience for a belated birthday present. This class did not disappoint! At the start of the class Chef Linda gave us an introduction to the style of food we'd be learning to cook as well as the ingredients and where to get them. Then we jumped right in to learning how to properly hold a knife, prep the ingredients, and then right in to the cooking! We started with a yummy Tom Kha Kai ( a coconut chicken soup) which was amazing! Then, after that appetizer, we got started on the two main dishes for dinner (Panang shrimp curry and Chicken lettuce cups with peanut sauce). They were superb! Then we finished off with a Thai-spiced caramelized pineapple compote over ice cream. We also brought our own wine that Chef Linda let us open after the knife work was done. The food was great but Chef Linda's deep knowledge of Thai cooking and other traditions was really what made it special. The only thing we would have changed would have been to bring more friends to join in the fun and amazing food. We will definitely try more classes with Chef Linda in the future. Thank you so much for a great evening and for the lessons that will continue to provide for years to come! Highly recommended!!!!!

My experience with Chef Linda was more than I had anticipated. I learned to cook 4 different dishes while learning the ins and outs of bechamel. I was very pleased, by the end of the evening, to undestand the various points of cooking a mother sauce.
