Earlier this year I met up with two of my high school friends in London. We all had previously been to the city and were not interested in any tourist spots or activities. We just wanted to spend time together and do something different and interesting. Hence, the cooking class.
We researched high and low for various classes in and around the London area. We finally zero-ed in on a Macaroon making class which was in the heart of Central London. Most importantly the timing suited us perfectly.

This was a two hour class with total of 7 people. While others were paired in a group of twos, we of course chose to be together and took turns. One of us always behind the camera. We not only learned making macaroons from scratch but also making different fillings and the science behind the steps.
I can't say I can bake macaroons after that class, but I sure had a lot of fun getting my hands messy and creating something which was (sorta) edible.
You can catch behind the scenes from the class and our other activities in the video below.

Just some quick advice: I have often come across grammatical errors and typos in your writing. You write so well and that takes away from the writing that is otherwise wonderful. Just some additional proofreading would go a long way.
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely correct. I suck at proof reading. I need to hire an editor.
DeleteI wanted to tell this since long but apparently did not due to my laziness - Argh! I don't mind being the proofreader if you would like :)
DeleteGood on you! I've never baked macarons, but I have decorated them at Sur La Table before. You know something, I think macarons are ridiculously adorable, but I prefer the taste of macaroons. :)

Well done! They look delicious! I've always wanted to try making macarons. You know, I took a cooking class with my friends once and it was one of the most fun times ever!
ReplyDeleteGood for you! I would love to try making something like this, but I'm awful at cooking. It looks like you had a wonderful time!
