At the start of November 2015 I took a master class in Asian Cuisine. The master class happened in a lovely Georgian restaurant Sareckela in Tbilisi and was led by a gourmet chef from Russia Natalia Chvileva. You can follow Natalia on her Facebook page: Touch to Food
Ingredients for Asian Cuisine master class
You can see there are a lot of sauces and actually sauces are one of the main ingredients in Asian cuisine. Also we were using soybean noodles instead of rice noodles, and we were using corn starch, I believe those were my first two discoveries in this master class. Prior to that I knew just regular noodles made from flour and egg. Yeah and in fact I didn’t know there are various starches, like I knew there is a regular starch made from potatoes, but that there are actually a corn and rice starch I didn’t know.

The Bottom Line
Master classes are fun way to learn new things and socialize with like minded people, I will definitely take participation in other master classes in future.
