Top La Jolla Cooking Classes

Come hungry. The food is delicious! Chef Marty was very good at teaching us to make the items for dinner. It was a lot of fun.

What a wonderful experience! Our sourdough baking teacher April, was incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and thorough with her instruction. Her beautiful kitchen, lovely home, and breathtaking ocean view made the class feel warm, inspiring, and unforgettable.Some experiences have a kind of quiet beauty to them — not flashy, just deeply nourishing. A cozy kitchen, someone teaching with care, the smell of sourdough, the ocean outside the window… those are the kinds of moments I will cherish for years.

Have you wished that you could bake beautiful sourdough loaves but the process seems so intimidating - and how in the world are you going to get that starter going? If so, this is your chance to change all of that. In one Sourdough by the Sea workshop with April, you will learn the basics of making sourdough hands-on, get all your questions answered and leave with dough ready to bake at home AND a jar of that precious starter! And the best part is you have a friend, coach and sourdough lifeline in April after the fact, so you’re never really trying to figure it out on your own. I can’t believe how easy the process is after feeling that it was too complicated based comments in sourdough groups online. And last but not least, you’ll also enjoy a fun experience in a beautiful setting. It’s not just a cooking class, but a mini get away.

My first ever making sourdough. The bread came out beautiful and so tasty. The instructor made it fun and instruction was very thorough. I can't wait to continue my sourdough journey.

I had such a wonderful experience at this sourdough bread making class. April was incredibly knowledgeable and took the time to answer everyone’s questions in a way that felt approachable and engaging. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun. We made our own loaves, enjoyed some wine, shared a delicious meal, and connected with such a friendly group of people. It truly felt like more than just a class; it was a full experience. Easily a five-star evening and I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in learning or just having a great time.

Teacher was very insightful, Lots of fun!
