Cookpad Cookery School! Cooking Classes for Beginners

We are delighted to announce the first series of our brand new ‘Cookpad Cookery School’.

WHO IS IT FOR?

This first series is aimed at complete beginners who would like to master some of the basics of home cooking. You do not need to have already shared a recipe on Cookpad, but to complete the course you will need a free Cookpad account. The second intake of students is taking place now ready for classes to start on April 6th.

HOW WILL IT WORK?

Sonia Nicholas and Yui Miles from the UK community team, will show you how to cook meals centred around 4 different skill sets/ingredients (eggs, pasta, stir fry and sauces) to a basic level. To complete the course you will need to watch a weekly video demonstration, then practice a minimum of one recipe each week from your home kitchen.

The entire course can be followed comfortably from your own home and at a time that is most convenient to you.

HOW CAN I REGISTER TO TAKE PART?

The course is free and reserved for anyone with a Cookpad account. If you don’t have an account you can create one for free on Cookpad UK by visiting www.cookpad.com/uk.

To participate, log into our private course Facebook group ➡️ here

You will be asked to enter the name you are registered with on Cookpad as a password. It is important to include this as without it we will not be able to accept you into the private group.

Take a seat and enjoy the 4 videos that will be released on a weekly basis from 2nd March.

Each weekly lesson consists of:
📺 a video tutorial in which two recipes are explained step by step.
🥣 two or more Cookpad recipe links where you can consult the written recipes, the method and the ingredients in greater detail.

At the end of each lesson, the ball passes to you! 👩‍🍳👨‍🍳

You will have 7 days to try the two recipes in each lesson. As homework, we will ask you to cook a minimum of one of the recipes shown in the lesson and upload your recipe to Cookpad with a final photo. For a bonus point we will ask you to cook the second recipe and share your Cooksnap photo comment - we will show you how to do this.

We strongly encourage you to try both recipes to learn the techniques taught while you have the support of the group to answer questions and help with any problems you encounter.

We will ask you to use a specific hashtag in each of your recipes - #cookpadcookeryschool

At the end of the four-week course, every participant will receive a certificate of attendance 🏅and most importantly, we hope you will have had fun learning some essential cooking skills and recipes.

If you have any problems or questions please contact sonia-nicholas@cookpad.com

Yui and Sonia will see you in class!
