You don’t have to travel to France to enjoy its cuisine. Join us for this hands-on class and learn a classic French menu with modern technique. From a perfectly balanced Duck breast salad from the Landes region, to a Marseillaise Salt cod with bouillabaisse sauce, finishing with a light & flaky frangipane filled Pithiviers from Orlèans, this journey of regional French cooking is the perfect blend of French technique and fresh flavours.

As with all of the courses at Leiths, our expert teachers will be sharing the skills, tips and tricks that take the fear out of cooking, so that these timeless classics can become part of your cooking repertoire. To allow you time to focus on your bouillabaise and duck salad, the pithiviers will be demonstrated to you. And once the cooking is done, you will join us in the dining room to enjoy the lunch of your own creation, accompanied by a well-earned glass of wine from our friends at Louis Latour.

Class structure

Cooking with your classmates is an integral part of your Leiths experience. You will cook some of your recipes in pairs, and some independently – whatever the ratio, there is always more than enough food, and often food to take home too (foil containers and bags provided).

Your day will comprise of a mixture of hands on cookery and demonstrations performed by the chef who is running the session. The exact format will vary from class to class depending on the style of cuisine and, in the case of visiting chefs, their individual teaching style.

Unless otherwise stated, you will be eating the food that you have cooked during your class for lunch, usually with wine or elderflower cordial around a communal table. If your class does not involve cooking lunch you will enjoy delicious sharing platters prepared by the school.
