Cooking Classes to Try in Boston

If that apron hanging in your kitchen is collecting dust, brush it off and tie it on with pride after checking out some of these top-notch cooking and baking classes that are offered in Boston. Boston’s food scene is booming and its cooking classes are a reflection of that. Learn some of the tips and tricks of the trade to make you look like a superstar chef you have some kind of clue what you are doing in your kitchen (we don’t want to push it). It’s fun to get your hands dirty and enjoy the food you prepared on your own at the end of the class. We love cooking classes as a fun activity to do with friends, a SO, or solo. Go ahead and try one, you’ll be cheffing it up in no time!

The KITCHEN at Boston Public Market

We talk about Boston Public Market a lot because they’re awesome! They allow small, local vendors to shine; and what’s more they have a kitchen space where they teach some really fun cooking classes. Sometimes their vendors are even the teachers. Taza Chocolate is currently offering a truffle making workshop and Soluna Garden Farm is currently offering a spice and tea blending workshop. Set aside the day because after the class you’ll definitely want to shop!
