Welcome to the Viking Cooking School in Greenwood, MS!
The Viking Cooking School classes are meant for culinary enthusiasts. Meaning, that you do not have to be a professional or know anything, OR you can just really enjoy trying something new and fun. No matter where you are on your culinary journey, the cooking school will absolutely be a fun experience for all.
In December 2019, I received a gift card from my (now) in-laws to visit the Viking Cooking School. In 2020, we had the pandemic, in 2021 we were planning a wedding, so we knew we had to take a class in 2022 before the baby arrives in July.
We decided on the Japanese Steakhouse class (spoiler: it was a GREAT decision!).
The menu for the Viking Cooking School Japanese Steakhouse class included:
- Steakhouse Salad with Creamy Ginger Dressing
- Teppanyaki Shrimp Flambé with Yoshi's Special Sauce
- Hibachi Steak with Fresh Vegetables and Mustard Sauce
- Japanese Fried Rice
- Sample Recipes:
- Edamame
- Tangerine Sorbet
It's a very interactive class, everyone gets to dice, chop, slice, cook, sauté, whatever the recipe calls you to do. You are also paired up with another couple/couple of people to work on different parts of the dishes.
I decided to take on the sautéing of squash and mushrooms.
This class is fun for couples, but there was also a class where ladies were having a girl's night, and that would also be a blast. Basically, if you enjoy cooking and learning a new type of cuisine, or techniques, it's going to be a good time.
Once we were done, it was time to serve family-style You'll see our fried rice, our beef with mushrooms and some sauces.
After all the cooking, you'll be hungry to eat, and there is plenty of food to share!
We all took a group picture at the end to celebrate our time together. It was such a good time, that I can't wait to go back one day. It's a great gift for someone who enjoys food or cooking, or just an experience.
Would you take one of their cooking classes?
I would love to attend this! I've been cooking for years, and one of my favorite parts of cooking is continuing to learn new methods.
ReplyDeleteOne thing I have never liked is cooking. I love to eat, but I leave the cooking to someone else. Maybe it's time I give something like this a try? I would need to learn from the ground up, so they would have to be extremely patient with me.
ReplyDeleteBeen a while since I did a cooking class! This one looks very fun :)
