Cookpad's Cooking Club

Do you have more time on your hands and want to try something different in 2021? Why not join us at our Cookpad Cooking Club!

The Club is completely online (over Zoom), free, and a friendly space to meet like-minded cooks. Our Cooking Club is also a great way to try new recipes and learn new skills, for example making fresh pasta and gyoza!

Each Zoom session is on the last Thursday of the month at 1pm and we often have guest cooks to help run the session and provide their own special recipes. We will release the recipe and ingredients list the week before the session, giving you lots of time to get in that weekly shop and get your ingredients ready. We can also include dietary recommendations for the recipes.

Our Cookpad Cooking Club is about community and cooking at a pace which suits you. There is no right or wrong way to join in! Drop in and watch along as our host leads the session. You can cook along with your camera and microphone off, for full privacy in your home kitchen. Otherwise join in the session with your camera on and connect with our community as we make the recipe together. Our Cooking Club is flexible for you to focus on making delicious home-cooked meals.

Can’t make all the sessions? No problem! We record every Zoom workshop and share them on our YouTube channel afterwards, allowing you to cook along again and again at a time which suits you. Also, attending every session is not compulsory, simply choose to join the sessions which interest you. (Only the session leader's face is shown in the Youtube recordings).
