Thai cooking class

We were picked up mid afternoon for a Thai cooking class we signed up for. There were 10 of us in our group, but the farm we went to for the classes could hold 5 different groups. Our first stop was the market where they would buy most of their fresh produce and meat that they didn't have on the farm. After about a 30-minute drive from Chiang Mai, we arrived at the farm where the cooking classes were held. We went to our station for an explanation of how the evening would go and also showed the menu that each of us picked a curry dish, a stir fry, a soup and spring rolls that we would then cook for ourselves. Our teacher explained all the spices and how to cook each dish. They had all the supplies ready, but we had to cut up our veggies and had to grind the spices for the curry paste, then cook everything. We all will get the recipes so we can try these dishes at home. After we did some prep work and cooked the spring roll contents, we toured the garden where they grow a lot of the species we used in our dishes. The class was a lot of fun and we had great young people in our group and the meals were so tasty!Leia mais
