Best cooking classes in Singapore to learn about local culture - SilverKris

"Run from a large, air-conditioned kitchen in a semi-detached house, these Peranakan classes are led by Rosaline Soon (Aunty Rosaline) and combine demonstration with hands-on practice. In a typical three-hour session participants learn to grate and drain pineapples and to make jam that traditionally takes “at least four hours” of slow cooking; because of time limits she prepares some jam and dough in advance so the group can shape, glaze and bake about four dozen pineapple tarts (both enclosed and open-faced) and take freshly baked treats home in flowery bags. The instructor also signs and sells her recipe books, which collect family recipes for both sweet and savoury Peranakan and Chinese dishes." - SilverKris
