She has been delivering cookery classes and catering events since 2020. She is passionate about sharing the flavours of different cultures and creating welcoming spaces where food brings people together. \nAbout Pay What You Can Tickets \nAt Made In Hackney\, we love bringing people together through plant-based cooking. For over a decade\, we’ve offered free community cooking classes open to all. But with 1 in 3 households in Hackney experiencing food poverty and demand growing\, we’ve introduced a Pay What You Can model to ensure no one is excluded. \nIf you’re able to give a little more\, your generosity directly funds ingredients\, classes and resources for people who might otherwise miss out. This approach helps us reach more people\, run more classes and make the best use of our limited resources\, while keeping our classes inclusive and welcoming. \nImportantly\, we’ll continue to run free community classes alongside this model. This is a trial\, so if you have any questions or suggestions\, please contact us at classes@madeinhackney.org. \nSuggested contributions per place \n\n£10 – suggested minimum donation\n£20 – covers the full cost\n£30 – pays it forward for someone else\n\nIf you cannot afford the minimum donation but would still like to attend\, please email classes@madeinhackney.org. We will try our best to ensure that no one is turned away for lack of funds. \nWhen you come to a Made In Hackney cookery class\, you enjoy an enriching culinary experience and help us fight hunger in our community. \nRefunds: Please understand that our charity needs time to resell your tickets as we rely heavily on the income generated by our classes. We require a minimum of 7 days’ notice for any cancellations or transfers once you have booked onto a class. \nAt Made In Hackney we believe access to good food is a human right – not a privilege.

SUMMARY:Community Class: All Ages\, All Tastes — Root to Tip
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to cook more sustainably by using every part of your vegetables—from root to tip! In this hands-on class\, we’ll show you creative and delicious ways to turn often-discarded parts like stalks\, skins\, and leaves into nourishing plant-based dishes. \n✨ What you’ll gain: \nPractical tips to reduce food waste in your kitchen \nSimple\, affordable recipes that make the most of every ingredient \nConfidence in cooking with a variety of vegetables from top to tail \nA chance to share food\, skills\, and ideas with your local community \nAbout Jordan \nJordan Bourzig\, a conscious vegan natural chef and a naturopathic nutritionist student\, hails from a traditional French cooking background. He’s studied the fundamentals of French cuisine and gained experience in various restaurants\, ranging from bistros to Michelin establishments. \nTransitioning to a vegan lifestyle in 2019\, Jordan embarked on exploring plant-based alternatives\, initiating an ongoing journey to discover the richness of plant-based cuisine. In 2022\, following a meaningful permaculture farming experience in Wales\, he became more conscientious about the food system and the nutritional quality it provides. \nPost this transformative experience\, Jordan dedicated his skills to sharing knowledge and offering healthy food to anyone he could assist. He is also on a journey of promoting healing through food and natural elements to contribute positively to the world. \n\n———————————– \nThis hands-on class is perfect for all ages.

SUMMARY:Community Class: All Ages\, All Tastes — Pantry to Plate
DESCRIPTION:Please note that this class is currently fully booked and is no longer accepting registrations of interest. You can still book or join the waiting list for other classes through our calendar and booking form. Thank you!\n——————————————————- \nJoin plant-based chef Tarryn to discover how to turn everyday pantry staples into delicious\, wholesome plant-based meals! This hands-on class will show you how to make the most of what you already have at home\, reducing food waste while saving time and money. Using simple\, affordable ingredients from the cupboard\, fridge\, or freezer\, we’ll create tasty\, nourishing dishes that are easy to adapt to your own kitchen. \nAbout the Chef \nTarryn Williams (they/them) is a British–South African chef with over six years of experience as a plant-based head chef\, pastry chef and cooking teacher. Their culinary journey spans a wide range of kitchens—from serving up elevated comfort food at Hackney’s plant-based café MOTHER\, to creating refined desserts at critically-acclaimed Central London restaurants like Tendril and Café Petiole\, to working as a private chef for yoga retreats and events\, like Melissa Hemsley’s Sustainability Sessions. \nTarryn will be drawing on all of this experience to bring nourishing\, flavoursome vegan dishes — both sweet and savoury — to Community Classes and Masterclasses at Made in Hackney. In particular\, Tarryn brings a deep\, specialist knowledge of plant-based baking and pâtisserie — an area they’ve honed through years of dedicated self-development\, alongside training with leading vegan pastry experts Toni Rodriguez and Richard Hawke. They offer a rare and comprehensive knowledge in this growing culinary field. \nPassionate about making good food accessible to all\, Tarryn combines a professional approach with a welcoming\, down-to-earth teaching style. Their recipes are often rooted in nostalgia — drawing inspiration from the sentimental dishes and moments that connect us to family\, friends\, and memory. \n———————————– \nThis hands-on class is perfect for all ages.
