Fundamental Knife Skills

So often people tell me that they’ve never really learned how to use a knife. In this course you’ll learn fundamental knife skills you can use for the rest of your life. Transform cooking from a chore to an act of delicious creation!

Practice makes perfect

I completely understand what it’s like to have a hectic schedule. That’s why I’ve designed this course so that you can do it all at once or take it slowly over a month. Even better, while you are working on the course, you’ll end up with delicious meals that you’ve made yourself!

Chef Rachel was my culinary instructor and was always so calm and peaceful. In addition to teaching how to cook and heal with food, she demonstrates the benefits of a clean and orderly kitchen, and a calm and grounded presence. I still incorporate the skills and lessons I learned from her over 9 years ago in my business and in my personal life.

Thank you for teaching us at the staff retreat. I really enjoyed learning healthier cooking that wasn't overwhelming. You have inspired me to go ahead and make some changes with my eating habits. And now I know it’s not as hard as I was imagining it to be!

Chef Rachel’s mindfulness has been a source of personal inspiration for me for well over twenty years. Her holistic approach to healing foods and a mindful practice are great medicine for the soul.

Chef Rachel's joyful, serene approach to life and learning comes through in her teaching. Her depth of experience is irreplaceable and allows her to emphasize the practical within the ideal. She meets each student where they are -- it's never one-size-fits-all when there is an opportunity to learn from her in person. Your investment will pay dividends on every level of your health!
