Class Description

Description

What you'll learn in this fish class:

We’ll cover three different (apartment-friendly) ways to cook fish as well as the how-to’s of buying, storing, and substituting one fish for another. 

Everyone will go home with a fish-buying pocket guide that details the current "best choices" to the "avoid" lists.  

  • Slow-Roasted Fish with Fennel, Citrus, and Herbs
  • Crispy Fish with Lemon-Caper Butter
  • Asian-Braised Cod with Bok Choy, Tomatoes, and Scallions
  • Perfect Lemon Rice Pilaf

Important:

  • Please reach out to CourseHorse for any dietary restrictions.
  • Make sure to ring the outside buzzer, even if the front door is open, so we know you are arriving!
School Notes:

PLEASE NOTE: If you are registered for a “VIRTUAL” class, you can disregard the information below.

FOR NYC CLASSES:

You’ll receive a complete recipe packet and enjoy a full sit-down meal at the end of class with your classmates. Our classes are BYOB, and you are welcome to bring a bottle to enjoy at the sit-down meal (not including our baking or dessert classes).

Our classes are hands-on, coupled with demonstration-style teaching. Everyone is situated at their own cutting board/chef’s knife station around a large wooden work table that accommodates the whole class (10 people max). We work together as a group, with the chef at the head of the table.

We focus on knife skills, preparing ingredients for cooking, and we strive to find every opportunity to offer you a hands-on experience at the stove and at your station, all within the spatial parameters of a single stove/family-style kitchen. We ask for volunteers to assist in all cooking.

Refund Policy

For Public Classes:

We have a firm business days cancellation policy (for credit only) to ensure that we have enough time to re-fill your seat with another student.

Please note: Boot Camps require business days notice to be rescheduled.

While it is not in our nature to say no, we are simply not able to accommodate last-minute illnesses or work-related conflicts. However, you are always welcome to send someone in your place, because we understand that these things do happen.

Classes are not refundable.

For Culinary Boot Camps:

Because of the volume of Boot Camps we offer, we cannot offer make-up classes to everyone who misses a class, as it happens too often. As a consolation we have two options for making up missed classes, provided you alert us ahead of time.

  • Send a friend in your place (and make them cook you a meal based on their new skills, as repayment!), or
  • Opt for our “Plan B” program: You can register for any single class that covers the same/similar coursework you missed, provided it still has an open seat 48 hours before it runs. That way you can take another class and we are just filling empty seats. Please note, this is a last-minute, drop-in option, not something that can be scheduled more than 2 days in advance. This does require that you keep tabs on our schedule to see what is available (the number of open seats is part of every class listing).

In any event where a customer wants to cancel their enrollment and is eligible for a full refund, a 5% processing fee will be deducted from the refund amount.

Thank you for understanding!

    The class is mostly watching a person cook, which I felt was pretty boring. I learned a couple of tricks and cut like 3 vegetables but I don't feel at all able to make fish. You do get a nice meal at the end.

Review Summary by CourseHorse

Students at How to Cook Fish had positive experiences, and many enjoyed the delicious food they cooked. Furthermore, they appreciated the knowledgeable instructors. Students felt that they learned more than just how to cook fish, as they also practiced knife and cooking techniques and fish shopping. Even some who criticized the teaching style learned a few tricks and techniques. One student mentioned that they felt more confident cooking fish after taking the class. The small class size allowed for more personal attention and the opportunity to ask questions. Quotes: 1. "Great instructor. Easy and delicious recipes. Great and USABLE information." 2. "Great teacher - very engaging. Very hands on and the small group meant that we could ask lots of different questions. I really enjoyed the class and would look to go back to the same place for additional courses." 3. "This is a must for anybody, whether you're a newbie or a pro, I believe you'd still learn a whole bunch from Erica!"
