About this class

We will talk about what is different in plant-based flavor pairing specifically. What is it that makes plant-based food shine? What are its strengths? We'll cover basic flavor balancing and layering — most professionals don't go much beyond that. I will also give you an intro to what makes out 80% of flavor: the vibrant, complex world of aroma.

I will give you a mobile, searchable list of combinations that will actually be useful.

Today, food needs to be fast, delicious, and nourishing — all at the same time.
We'll be talking about how to realize that with educational recipes.

We'll make

  • Yellow pea or lentil stew
  • Seasonal greens
  • Seasonal salad
  • Refined sauce with black garlic

Learn Efficient Cooking Techniques: Discover the power of flavor pairing, how it will help diversify your food and how you can nail it every time!

Joé S.
Onur has a great deal of experiences, and he showed us his approach of cooking plant based whole foods while making a meal really delicious. Thinking whether a dish lacks umami or acidity, and the different ways to improve a dish and think of the volatility of aromas were a unique experience in the sense that it keeps me thinking long after the course has ended. The additional resources sent after the course are also great. The only thing that I would say could be improved is a little more pedagogical preparation during the cooking phase. One could imagine giving every participant a small amount of the cooked lentils dish and a range of ingredients and having them add something to see the effect. Or purposefully preparing an unfinished recipe - where e.g. umami is really missing - and then have participants find a way to add this to the dish and experience the "ah that's better" moment.
