Summer comes late here in Alberta. Once it does there’s no time to waste indoors. So we’re focused on the outdoor Grill with our classes this summer. @kathryn.joel kicked things off yesterday with her class on Gözleme, a stuffed & grilled Turkish flatbread. We launched our summer season classes last week, of light and easy supper time classes, lots with a bbq theme. Check out the schedule, DM us for more info, and do sign up and cook along with us for some delicious summer fun!

Mai @maicaroon makes absolutely delicious pasta! And while dumplings are her chosen specialty she has so much more up her sleeve. Like these Malloreddus alla Campadinese. This Sardinian semolina flour & water pasta, served with a traditional sausage meat sauce, is from a recent class. If you missed out, don’t worry! You can join us next Tuesday June 8th and cook your pasta dinner together with Mai. No pasta machine required, though a gnocchi board is recommended or a sushi mat will work too! #linkinbio👉💻

This Spring we’ve introduced a new series of Delicious is Nutritious classes with Will & Jenn Kotowicz. In April Will, who you may also know as @secretmeatclub and one of the owners of the amazing @meuwlys (local charcuterer / grocer par excellence) cooked up his Chicken with Mushrooms & Dirty Rice. And next Sunday May 31st Will and Jenn (also his wife / life partner) are back teaching Cod Provençal. Combining Will’s skills and expertise as a chef, charcuterer and food scientist with Jenn’s knowledge as a Functional & Nutritional Lifestyle Practitioner, this series is a conversation about cooking whole nutrient dense foods, and cooking together with and for your family and friends. The act of cooking is in itself nutritious, engaging our digestive systems and preparing us for the absorption of nutrients from our food. Intrigued? Book a ticket, cook with us, and join the conversation! The ingredients you’ll need are listed in the event description. #linkinbio👉💻

Today Larry @harrislarryd of @bonneviebc taught session 2 of his inaugural virtual Sourdough Bread class at Get Cooking. In session 1 participants made their own sourdough starter. Then today (2 weeks later) they learned how to use it to make Bread. The class sold out. Twice. Deservedly so, it will be a regular going forwards: we’ve just added it a third time on May 23 / June 6. Here are a few photos from the two sessions to whet your appetite. Join us! And check our Larry’s upcoming Pretzel and Stroopwafel classes too. #linkinbio👉💻.

🌎 Happy Earth Day 🌍 In celebration we’re sharing some memories of a few of the Farm Tours & Dinners that Get Cooking has collaborated on over the years. We are so proud to be Albertans and to be able to work with some of the amazing producers who tend this land. Featured here are @myprairiegardens in Bon Accord, @tangleridgeranch in Thorsby and Coen Farm in Ferintosh. And we are excitedly planning Get Cooking at Prairie Gardens this July and August: keep your eyes peeled for classes and experiences at the Farm this summer!

We launched our cookbook club series this winter with 3 classes filled with Palestinian recipes from the pages of “Falastin” by @sami_tamimi and @tara.wigley. Here are a few pictures from our classes, including (in order) Open Cauliflower Pies, Labneh Balls, Yogurt Roasted Cauliflower with Quick Pickles, Warm Hummus with Eggplant, Kubbeh and Mejadra. It was a delicious experience and inspired our upcoming series of classes on Palestinian Mezze starting with next Tuesday’s Warm Hummus topped with Eggplant, or Kofta (the Eggplant option is pictured). We hope that you will join us for some Palestinian Mezze, or for our upcoming Book Club exploring Thai food from the pages of “Maenam” by @chefangusan. #linkinbio👉💻

In celebration of #internationalwomensday here are just a few images of some of the incredible women I am lucky enough to know, and work with. These are the women of Get Cooking. My colleagues. My friends.

@shelaghthur I have no picture. If I did you would be here too.

1. Me and Elyse. She’s teaching I’m assisting. 5 years working together I hope for many more.

2. Elyse and her son Harry at a Prairie Gardens farm dinner. This picture speaks volumes to me about women, work, and family.

3. Mai Nguyen. This image of Mai, lovely in every way, gives me joy.

4. Marissa Cheng. The sweetness of that smile says it all. Marissa is my rock.

5. Rowena San Diego. One of the hardest working kindest women I know. I am blessed.

6. Tam Andersen. Tam’s passion and creativity shine. And her belief in me makes me humble.

7. Cindy Lazarenko. So lovely so kind so loved. Thank you Cindy for your beautiful presence.

8. Kim Theoret. My friend. My light. This picture - I love this picture.

9. And 10. Elyse. 🙏❤️
