The Farmhouse Kitchen - cooking classes in the Hobart

The Farmhouse Kitchen (Wattle Grove)5.0 (52)

From $105pp

No cooking experience is needed, as each class explains the history behind the dishes and shows how to repeat them at home.

Getting Cooking Classes Right

The Huon Valley's listed cooking class is The Farmhouse Kitchen, a farm cooking school at Wattle Grove that teaches southern Italian food from Puglia. Classes are small and hands-on, and every one ends at the table.

It suits a team-building day or a birthday group that would rather cook together than sit in a restaurant.

Choosing a class format at Wattle Grove:

A masterclass fills the morning, 9am until roughly half past one with a break midway, and lunch follows.
A savoury miniclass is a shorter morning, roughly 10am to 12.30pm, and finishes with lunch.
A sweet miniclass fills an afternoon, about 2pm to 4pm, and ends with afternoon tea.
Private bookings need at least six people and take no more than nine, on weekdays, with prices from $105 per person.
The session closes with a shared meal, dessert and a glass of local wine alongside Giuliana's team.

Pasta, both traditional and rustic, is a staple of the class list, along with bread, pizza, focaccia and gnocchi.
On the dessert side, cannoli and tiramisù are taught.
Seasonal classes feature produce like artichokes when the time is right.
The kitchen is a homely farmhouse room with no commercial gadgets, so the techniques work in an ordinary home kitchen.

Booking a private class in the Huon Valley

Give the school a few days' warning and name the class you want from its list when booking a private weekday.
Weekend classes are public, so a group wanting the kitchen to itself should plan a weekday.
Payment isn't refundable; cancel at least 14 days out and it becomes credit instead.
With wine served at the meal, arrange a driver or a shared ride home for the group.
