3 hours Class size 1 to 10 guests    

  $205 (Afterpay & PayPal Pay in 4 available)

Let’s celebrate Bastille Day with one of France’s most luxurious seafood dishes!
Bouillabaisse is a traditional Provençal fish stew that originated in the 18th century and was first eaten by Marseillaise fishermen, who would combine the leftovers of the daily catch into a nutritious soup. Bouillabaisse can now be found on the menu of every 5-star French seafood restaurant.
Its high price tag in France is a result of the red scorpionfish used in the dish, as is their locally caught Red Gurnard. In Australia, supply outweighs demand, meaning that these same fish can be purchased for less than $20/kg!
During this class, you'll learn how to save a buck while creating one of the most high-end French dishes, the Bouillabaisse.
Please be aware that you will be cooking in a group of four to six people. To book a group of seven or more into this class, please contact the teacher.
