The Herald (South Africa)

Have fun cooking up exotic storm

-

The Herald is calling all foodies to join us in the kitchen for a taste of Mexican, Italian, SA and festive season foods with Capsicum Culinary Studio.

The Herald is presenting a series of four cookery master classes at the Capsicum headquarte­rs in Newton Park and will give readers the chance to learn basic culinary skills and techniques.

Capsicum Culinary Studio head chefs will guide you with expert advice and demonstrat­ions – plus you get a fabulous meal to enjoy each night.

“We will be hosting interactiv­e cooking classes, where our talented chefs will be showcasing and sharing some of their epic kitchen skills,” campus principal Beryldene Bain said.

The Herald master classes will introduce different themes and food cultures on a Thursday night as follows:

● Mexican – October 25;

● Italian – November 2;

● South African – November 22; and

● Christmas treats – December 6. Bain said the themes would allow participan­ts “to explore and intrigue their senses” – and you do not need to be a whiz in the kitchen to take part.

“The classes are aimed at individual­s – and couples – eager to master basic cooking skills with a twist,” she said.

Participan­ts will prep, cook and enjoy their own creations with their partner or friend over a glass of Three Peaks wine in a relaxed environmen­t.

Readers with special dietary considerat­ions, for example, vegetarian, halaal or allergies, will be taken into account.

“If they could please notify us about these special require- ments in advance we will plan accordingl­y,” Bain said.

Tickets are R350 per master class, which includes a welcome drink, cookery class hosted by an experience­d Capsicum chef, a basket of ingredient­s, dining experience, compliment­ary chef apron and bottle of Three Peaks wine.

The studio is at 67 Newton Street and each class will run from 6pm to about 8.30pm.
