Really wonderful instructor and class, and the result was great. In particular, I thought Chef Mab did a great job of introducing herself and Persian cuisine; and showing us how she was cooking while also fielding individual questions; and helping people out w/ substitutions. Really well done, overall.

LOVED the class, cooking in my own kitchen with my own pots, getting instruction from Chef Mab, hearing the questions, seeing the others cooking. What a wonderful experience!

We loved this class so much. It was such a great activity to do with my mom, who lives in a different state and here is for visiting . The food was delicious and time flew! It's great to be able to do an activity together AND have a prepared dinner at the end of it all. I appreciated how patient Chef Mab was. It was great to do it in our own kitchens with our own supplies, so that we can easily recreate everything we learned. I loved how Mab asked to see our pans, pots, and our progress on the rice and tahdig. Speaking of, we LOVED the tahdig! I haven't stopped thinking about it since Sunday."

I thought it was really lovely- I loved hearing Mab speak about her own story and experiences in conjunction with the cooking. I appreciated her emphasis on the structure of Persian food and flavor, as these elements and techniques were new to me and made all the difference in attempting to cook with her. It made me wish for an in person experience! But really well done, . thank you Chef Mab!!
