Thai Cooking Class- and never again be intimidated by rice noodles!
I just spent 4 weeks in Thailand cooking and eating and visiting restaurants. Menu research & development is hard work! From my travels, I came up with this cooking class that are now favorites of our office catering clients.
In this cooking class, we explore the interplay of sweet, sour, funky, spicy and salty flavors that make Thai food so distinctive- and delicious. I have developed my recipes to use readily available ingredients, so you don’t have to make a special trip to the Asian market.
Here is what we will be cooking …
Honey & Lime Dressing- sweet, spicy, citrus-y and salty with a funky swagger. Get the recipe card! We use it for our chicken satay marinade, and our pad thai sauce.
Thai Red Curry Chicken- sauteed with Yukon gold potatoes and spinach in our fragrant (and lip-tingling) coconut-cream sauce. Served over fragrant basmati rice.
Sriracha Verde- because our produce guy is stupid haha. Only here at Crocodile will you find this one! Watch your face after you grind it!
Som Tum Salad- shredded cabbages tossed with lime juice, garlic, ground peanuts, chili and traditional seasonings (use green papaya if you can get them)
Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce- this sauce requires a mandatory garnish of chopped peanuts declared by the Food Dictator.
Chicken Satay- char-grilled to a crusty succulence on our open broiler! We will dunk these sweet & spicy skewers in the peanut sauce.
Pad Thai- springy rice noodles are tossed with crispy tofu, angel hair carrots, napa cabbage ribbons, bean sprouts, egg scrambles, shishito peppers and our homemade honey-lime dressing. Served with chopped peanuts, jalapenos, basil and big, fat lime wedges.

Our Cooking Classes are hands-on and directed by Owner & Executive Chef, Kurt Linneman,. Classes last about 2 hours. Classes are hands-on (or off)… and the best part is, after we’re done cooking, we all sit down and eat! Great for family get-togethers and corporate team building.
