Prudence Sloane’s Cooking School

After receiving a culinary art degree I opened a cooking school in 1993 in Hampton, Connecticut where I taught professional techniques to home cooks. After nine years of great fun, wonderful people and delicious food I closed the school to concentrate on TV, radio and writing. We have since moved to Avon, Connecticut.


Have School Will Travel

I now offer talks, food games, seminars and more outside of my school. So if your company is looking for something different for your next convention, corporate meeting, dining club or party give me a call and I’ll design an event especially for your group. Classes can be tailored for groups of any size from 1 to 1000.


If you can’t get a group together try my Food Tours which include a market tour, cooking demonstration and lunch.


Keep on Cooking,

Prudence Sloane

Always wanted to chop like a pro? Now is your chance. TV Chef and former cooking school owner, Prudence Sloane, for the first time in years is offering her “Knife Skills Workshop”.


With hands-on training you'll learn the professional way to chop, mince, dice, julienne and more. You'll learn about knives: their uses, how to buy, care for and sharpen them. In addition, you'll learn about pots and pans: which ones are best for sautéing, braising, frying and what to spend money on where not to. You’ll get a tour where restaurants shop and tips on professional utensils that every home cook should have.  And to top it off she’s sneaking in “Food Sanitation.” Learn important facts about food handling – a must for any home cook, especially around the holidays. These are just some of the valuable professional tips you'll learn from this class. A must for any level of cook.


Class Includes:


In store discount

Detailed handouts

Store Tour

Plus - This is your chance to see if you have any decent knifes in your kitchen. Bring them all in, no matter how beat up they are, and have them evaluated.

Come take advantage of this incredible opportunity to cook side by side with TV Chef Prudence Sloane in this hands on class!


Benjamin Franklin once said “Fools make Feasts, and wise men eat them”. If you feel that way about being the cook for Thanks- giving, then this is the class for you. In Prudence’s own words: I’m going to show you how to get juicy white meat and perfectly cooked dark meat with “Julia Child’s Reassembled Turkey” and it comes to the table looking just like the real thing! I’ve been cooking my turkey this way for years and I wouldn’t do it any other way. The disassembling can be done up to two days ahead and the gravy made a day ahead. No more last minute frantic cooking.


So it’s BYOT – “bring your own turkey” and you’re going to disassemble it in class – all done and ready for you to pop it in the oven Thanksgiving day! And here’s an added bonus - you won’t have to get up at 5 in the morning because the turkey will roast in about half the time! Plus you’ll learn the principles and techniques of making gravy, stuffing and cooking green vegetables the restaurant way– all lower calorie and the day before – making this the “Cook’s Holiday”. Trust me – this will change your Thanksgiving forever! Don’t forget your turkey!

What can turn an otherwise confident cook into a mass of quivering jelly?
               
How about cooking a beef rib roast? A beef rib roast is something the average cook doesn’t have a great deal of experience cooking – it’s for special occasions and is expensive!
