All Online cooking classes include interactive cooking instruction, a virtual dinner party, a packet with the instructor's family recipes, and a video recording of the class. Since the price is per device, feel free to invite your partner, kids, or roommates to join!

Our online classes are designed to be special, meaningful opportunities to share cooking, culture, and connection--just like our real life experiences. We want you to cook along, and we promise there will be plenty of time for questions, conversation, and stories. It will all end with a virtual dinner party where you'll get to share in the fruits of your labor, apart, but together!

In this 2.5 hour interactive online experience Shandra will guide you through making three of her family recipes. During your class, you'll prepare Shandra'a Javanese pecel (a traditional salad dish composed of a variety of vegetables such as spinach, chayote, bean sprouts, long beans, cabbage, and cucumber, served with a peanut sauce), tempeh tofu bacem (a beloved Javanese dish with tempeh and tofu simmered in a sweet and salty coconut water broth before being fried), and nasi jagung (a nutty and delicious jasmine rice flavored with coarse cornmeal.
