If you’ve been reading up on my travels for awhile you certainly aren’t surprised that I joined a cooking class in Ho Chi Minh City!
The Saigon Cooking School class was really small and consisted of me ( the Jamaican American), an older couple from France, and a young woman from Costa Rica.
I love it because it was so small and intimate. I had a really great time at the Saigon Cooking School learning about Vietnamese cuisine and cooking techniques.
The menu:
Spring Rolls with Prawns
Lotus Salad and Grilled Beef in Bethel leaf.
Here are more pictures from the class 🙂

| Me 🙂 I’m in the process of writing a cookingbook for all my travels! I just love food so much! And to think I use to be such a picky eater. |

| Spring Rolls |
 |
| In every Vietnamese kitchen some key ingredient: Fish sauce, Lime juice, Sugar , black pepper and vinegar (rice wine) |
 |
| The mother of fish sauces! |
 |
| Lotus root salad! SO GOOD! |
 |
| Beef and bethel leaf |
 |
| This is beef….cooked well done. I no longer eat meat (for good this time) |
[…] That’s great if you need that kind of help but it also comes with a very significant price tag! Something you won’t find with the Ministry program and BEDA. Or applying to teach in South Korea….or Viet Nam […]
