Every Simply Caribbean Foods live class is designed to welcome students of all skill levels. Chef D explains every technique from the very beginning with patience and clarity.

This is not a demonstration you watch. You cook in real time right alongside Chef D. You have your ingredients ready, you follow each step, and by the end of the class you have made the dish yourself from scratch.<\/p><\/div>\n      <div class=\"lc-faq-item\"><div class=\"lc-faq-q\">What do I need to prepare before class?<\/div><p class=\"lc-faq-a\">You will receive a full recipe guide and ingredient list before your class. All you need to do is shop for your ingredients, prepare your kitchen workspace, and show up with your Zoom link ready.<\/p><\/div>\n      <div class=\"lc-faq-item\"><div class=\"lc-faq-q\">Will I get the ingredient list in advance?<\/div><p class=\"lc-faq-a\">Yes. Your full recipe and ingredient list is sent by email ahead of class day so you have plenty of time to shop and prep. You will never arrive at class unprepared.<\/p><\/div>\n      <div class=\"lc-faq-item\"><div class=\"lc-faq-q\">Can I join from anywhere in the world?<\/div><p class=\"lc-faq-a\">Yes.

Many students have never cooked Caribbean food before their first class. The classes are designed to introduce you to authentic T&T cooking from the ground up.<\/p><\/div>\n      <div class=\"lc-faq-item\"><div class=\"lc-faq-q\">How long is each class?<\/div><p class=\"lc-faq-a\">Each class runs approximately 2 to 3 hours depending on the recipe and session type. The Ultimate Experience sessions which cover 3 to 4 dishes will run toward the longer end. You will always know the expected duration before you book.<\/p><\/div>\n      <div class=\"lc-faq-item\"><div class=\"lc-faq-q\">Will I receive the recipe after class?<\/div><p class=\"lc-faq-a\">Yes. You receive your full recipe guide before the class and you keep it permanently after.
