It was one of our goals this year, to spend more time in the kitchen with our children. Through virtual cooking classes, and local Edmonton cooking classes for families, we’ve taken six classes over the past few months, learning how to make dishes from our favourite local restaurants, dishes that take us far away from Edmonton to places we haven’t explored yet, and even things we never thought we would make at home, like fresh pasta.

Get in the kitchen with your kids this month in Edmonton. Keep reading to find the best cooking classes in Edmonton for kids and families, coming up in February.

Hainan Chicken Rice
February 5, 2023
Join Kathryn Joel online and learn to prepare her version of Hainan Chicken Rice. A favourite in Singapore and throughout SE Asia, Hainan Chicken Rice originated in the kitchens of Chinese immigrants from Hainan in Southern China. Together with Kathryn you'll gently poach a whole chicken with aromatics, then use the scented broth as both an accompaniment and to cook the rice, that is enriched with rendered chicken fat. Our homemade accompaniments include Sweet Soy Sauce, Chili Sauce and Ginger Green Onion Sauce.
