Join Jo for this fabulous Fish Masterclass, designed for anyone looking to build confidence and creativity when cooking fish at home.

Whether you’re seeking inspiration or practical guidance, this hands-on class explores a wide range of techniques and dishes that are ideal all year round for any occasion. Jo will demonstrate and guide you through essential skills such as filleting whole fish, achieving perfectly crisp skin on pan-fried fish, preparing a vibrant ceviche, and baking a whole fish.

Alongside the cooking, you’ll pick up invaluable tips on buying and choosing fish, understanding different varieties, and adapting recipes to suit your personal tastes or accommodate guests with different preferences. Jo also draws inspiration from her cookbook, The Flexible Pescatarian, which will be available to purchase on the day.

The class combines both hands-on cooking and live demonstration, giving you the chance to learn by doing as well as observing professional techniques in action. At the end of the session, everyone will sit down together to enjoy the dishes you’ve prepared, accompanied by a glass of wine or a soft drink.

A relaxed, informative, and flavour-filled experience, this masterclass is perfect for anyone looking to expand their fish cookery repertoire and gain practical skills they can confidently use at home.
