My background & experience
Chef Edie was one of the first food bloggers of the Netherlands, attended culinary school to spice up her cooking and to learn all is possible. Then taught curious home cooks like she was all the fun and interesting things she had learned.
After moving to California, she started to mentor people looking for a lifestyle change, spending more time in the kitchen and encouraging home cooks to become free of recipes.
Chef Edie loves cooking with vegetables, and gets her inspiration from all over the world, the Mediterranean area in particular. She is a curious omnivore and hates to waste food. My classes and teaching style
Chef Edie wants everyone to have fun in the kitchen. Her classes are always interactive, encouraging and a ton of fun.
"Everyone can follow a recipe, but I love to teach you how you can adjust them. What can you easily change to make the dish 'you', the way you will love it. What ingredients can you replace with the ones you have in your pantry? Or how can you adjust it to your dietary restrictions."
In short, I want to empower and teach you to understand recipes. After all, learning to cook is all about finding out what you love to eat."
In all her classes, chef Edie will try to give options for vegetarian, vegan, gluten and dairy free alternatives. Let her know at sign up if there are ingredients you don't want to use. My certifications
