【คลาสเวิร์คช็อป】Hands-on Basic Taiwanese Cuisine Instruction - 1-on-1 Class

Method: In-home instruction or at our Taipei classroom. Target Audience: Foreign domestic helpers / Family caregivers. Language: Mandarin Chinese / English available. As societal shifts occur and birth rates decline, by 2025, half of Taiwan's population will be over 45. This marks the beginning of facing an aging society and low birth rates. Consequently, an increasing number of foreign workers from Southeast Asian countries are assisting with family and elderly care. With this in mind, Teacher Wayne has designed a training course specifically for foreign caregivers. As culinary tools advance, our cooking methods should also evolve. Preparing meals the right way can result in heartwarming and healthy home-style dishes. Here are our 3 main principles: Deliciousness without excess oil: Aligns with modern dietary habits, applying scientific principles to cooking. Rejecting excessive seasoning: Maximizing the natural flavors of ingredients. Medium heat is just right: Selecting the appropriate oil and heat to reduce smoke and the production of carcinogens.

Studied in Australia from the age of 13 after junior high, majoring in Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne, with a Master's degree in Graphic Design. Spent over 14 years abroad before settling in Taiwan in 2007. During his time abroad, he lived near Victoria Market for an extended period. With fresh ingredients readily available, he developed a deep interest in culinary research. He attended several short-term cooking training courses and learned some home-style dishes from a Sicilian Italian mother. His sociable nature allowed him to exchange food and culture with friends from various countries, offering him the opportunity to taste and learn many international home-style cuisines! In addition to traditional Taiwanese home-style cooking, he has a broad understanding of various international dishes. His personality is akin to an Australian's; he enjoys researching recipes and spices at his own pace, preferring not to follow trends, and only cooks dishes he genuinely enjoys!
