COOKERY COURSES Mary-Anne is a qualified cookery teacher and offers bespoke courses in your own kitchen suitable for beginners or for anyone wanting to improve their cooking skills and repertoire. She has taught day courses for nannies and au pairs which include recipes for special diets e.g. gluten/vegan/dairy free recipes, and she can inform about the nutritional needs of children and how to deal with fussy eaters. The courses are also very useful for gap year students or for those wanting to cook in chalets for skiing holidays, and include information about food hygiene and nutrition. The courses can be very specific if desired, e.g. just about pastry making, vegetarian cookery, patisserie, sauces or bread making.
