Welcome to Mas D`
Arneix for your French Cooking Holiday
Here
at Mas D`Arneix we want you to make use of all your senses when
experiencing our hands on cook France classes. In our cooking
classes we convey the importance of using only the very best
quality fresh ingredients. We show our students the techniques
used in commercial cookery that can be used every day at home.
Not every body has the time to use
complicated cooking techniques. We provide tips and tricks that
our clients can take away and maximise the
potential of that fresh produce through correct cooking
techniques. It’s about going back to the basics of using simple
fresh and healthy ingredients to produce fantastic wholesome and
practical cooking. Cooking and eating habits that can be
incorporated into our busy lifestyles.
We show our
students how to get the most of the produce they are purchasing,
whether it is meat, seafood, fruit or vegetables.
In our classes we
guide our clients to reach their full potential in the kitchen.
We design our classes to be fun and interactive. Each client
gets to participate hands on in the preparation of their own
meal. First we take you through an orientation session where you
will be taken through the recipes, the raw ingredients and the
techniques. Throughout the class these will be employed in the
preparation of the menu. Then under our guidance all our clients
get to prepare the menu covered in the demonstration. We are
always on hand to provide guidance, and answer any questions
you, our clients, may have. At the end of the class we move to
the dining table where you can enjoy the fruits of your labour.
The menu is enjoyed with a suitably matched beverage
With the correct
techniques it can be so easy to prepare great food. Here at Mas
D`Arneix we want our clients to maximise their culinary
potential through gaining confidence and learning new skills. It
doesn’t matter if you are a complete beginner or a budding
professional we teach you the techniques to reach that goal. We
get an immense amount of satisfaction from seeing our clients
succeed. You will realise that it’s not difficult to produce
appetising, exciting, great tasting, good quality food. Menus that
perhaps you would not have dared to attempt before.
During your stay at Mas d`Arneix,
Le Bistrot L`Escargot waits to welcome you for a refreshing
afternoon drink or an entertaining evening of fun.
During the week we will be taking you to the bistro for a
typical French meal and a chance to soak up the local
atmosphere.
