We Love Fish


An all-levels cookery class covering fish selection, storage, preparation, filleting and cooking through demonstrations and individual workstation practice.
About this course
The class begins with the principles of buying, storing and cooking fish, followed by demonstrations and guided preparation at individual workstations. Participants practise filleting both flat plaice and round sea bream, then use the fish in dishes including goujons, poached plaice, pan-fried sea bream with salsa verde, and stuffed whole sea bass. Teaching demonstrations are followed by hands-on cooking, with attention to flavouring, stuffing and different cooking methods. The prepared food is eaten at the chef’s table or packed to take away.
