Online Cooking Classes | How to become a chef | How to become a better cook with Methods of Cooking

In this video Murray Slinn from the YSE Cookery School gives you an introduction to the 10 Day Foundation Course, which is the bestseller of their online cooking classes.
If you ask yourself how to become a better cook, Murray has the solution for you: instead of learning hundreds of recipes, focus on learning certain methods of cooking (or so-called reoccurring principles) which will allow you to tackle almost any recipe you will come across in your future cooking!
The Foundation Course is a great example how cooking classes at home can offer more value to the students than live courses. You will be a lot more engaged in the preparation of all of the dishes and will end up with many advanced cooking skills you may not necessarily end up during a live cooking class.

*Student Review from Steve P. Excellent content, clear presentation, and value for money, from an amazing chef!* Murray is an excellent and gifted chef. More importantly, he is an excellent and gifted teacher. The course is set up in such a way that it can also be used as a reference guide to cooking and technique. It's also fun and very well laid out and presented.The lessons are a good length, and the instruction is very clear.I still regularly go back and re-watch many aspects of the course and just use different recipes and ingredients. My cooking is constantly improving because of this and I have been helping other cooks to improve their skills. I have recommended the course on many occasions and will visit the school in Val again. Great experience.

*Student Review from Jenny R. A highly enjoyable 10 days!* I have thoroughly enjoyed this course. The set of dishes gets progressively more technical as the course goes on which allows you to pick up the basics, then apply them to more complex dishes. Murray sets out each day perfectly, giving you enough time to complete all your dishes but keeping the time pressure high enough so that you really learn to plan, manage, and prioritise your time carefully. Each day has a theme running through it, meaning you might spend one day focusing on pastry, another on cooking with certain meats or on regional cuisine; this allowed me to hone my skills in each area and helped me learn more about the wider cultural influences in food. The overall theme is to supply you with the principles that occur over and over in pretty much all the cooking you will do. Murray gets this spot on and I now feel confident to apply what I have learnt and get creative with my own dishes. The feedback given was insightful and helpful and allowed my confidence to grow with my cooking. This course is not designed for beginner cooks, but for those who already have a firm interest in cooking and wish to expand upon this, I cannot recommend this course enough.

Student Review from Miranda W. A Brilliant Course - comprehensive, detailed, and inspiring! This course took me from mediocre meals from a very small repertoire to a confident, consistent and adventurous cook with a huge number of skills under my belt. The course is perfectly designed to teach and develop the essential skills of cookery through a really broad range of dishes. Each day of cooking introduces and reinforces the skills and techniques you will use for all future cooking in any context, so I now feel that even if I'm tackling a new dish, I have the knowledge and skills to do it justice. The menu plan challenges your time management and organisational skills as much as the cooking skills and, for me, that was another really excellent aspect of the course to take on as an aspiring professional cook. Murray's detailed feedback on all dishes and questions was another invaluable part of the course, so that even if something was disastrous, I could understand how to correct it for next time. Having access to the discussion board and the ability to compare notes and ask questions with other cooks created a lovely feeling of support, enthusiasm and encouragement which was really great. I learnt so much from this course and feel equipped and inspired to continue my cooking journey. I would highly recommend the course to anyone who would like to get into professional cookery or someone who just wants to gain the essential foundations to cook delicious food forever!
