Discover Cooking Beyond Recipes
Our classes blend global food traditions and cultures with travel stories and practical skills to help you cook confidently and sustainably with whole ingredients.
Discover the World Through Cooking
In our cooking classes we will help you learn how to make delicious dishes, develop essential cooking skills and sustainable, healthy kitchen habits whilst introducing the cultural history behind the food.
Our recipes and classes are inspired by years of living, teaching and travelling globally. As lifelong food lovers, passionate cooks and experienced PhD-qualified teachers, we bring the stories, traditions and flavours behind every dish into our kitchen.
Our live online cooking classes continue throughout the year, bringing food, culture, and hands-on cooking into kitchens around the world. From September to November 2026, we’re also trialling a limited series of small-group, home-based pop-up cooking classes in central Tampere (5 minutes walk from the train station) — a relaxed and personal way to cook, learn, and share food together.
