Whole Fish and Seafood Cooking Class

Working with whole fish and seafood can be quite intimidating—and quite rewarding. In this very hands-on class, you'll learn how to choose and clean seafood; properly use a knife to fillet whole fish (for sea bass en papillote); denature raw seafood (for ceviche); cook shellfish in broth (for Thai-style moules marinières); and prepare squid and prawns (for a citrus-forward salad). You can apply these principles when cooking a variety of seafood, knowing exactly what to look for so your dishes are never under- or overcooked. 

Think this class would make a perfect gift? We do too—that's why we offer Cook School Gift Cards, for one or two guests, in paper and digital formats. That allows your giftee to decide the class, time, and location, as well as let us know about any dietary preferences or allergens.
