Advanced Weeklong Classes 2008 & 2009
with Kasma Loha-unchit

About Kasma Kasma Tossing Chillies

There are currently three advanced weeklong intensive classes – Advanced Intensive – Menu Set A , Advanced Intensive – Menu Set B, and Advanced Intensive – Menu Set C. They may be taken in any order although it is strongly recommended that you take Set A or Set B first.

As with the beginning intensive class, Authentic Thai food is by nature spicy and this class will teach you to cook authentic Thai as it is found Thailand, which may be different from Westernized Thai food served in many American Thai restaurants. You should be able to tolerate a spiciness/heat level of at least 4 on a scale of 1 to 10, otherwise there will be many dishes you will not be able to eat.

Dates and Cost

Prerequisite: Kasma's weeklong beginning intensive or Kasma's beginning and intermediate series. We're sorry, but there are no exceptions. There are two reasons for this policy. 1) Kasma teaches in a manner different than other teachers, particularly with her emphasis on balancing flavors to achieve authentic Thai taste. She also offers a great deal of information not found in other classes. She wants to make sure that everyone in these classes has been exposed to the same information. 2) In the past when she has made exceptions for someone who has seemed very well qualified or experience, it has not worked out.

Schedule: Advanced Menu sets A & C will be offered in 2008. Advanced Menus Set A & B will be offered in 2009.

  • Advanced Intensive – Menu Set A: August 18 to 22, 2008 – Waiting list only.
    Advanced Intensive – Menu Set A: July 20 to 24, 2009
  • Advanced Intensive – Menu Set B: August 17 to 21, 2009.
  • Advanced Intensive – Menu Set C: July 21 to 25, 2008 – One opening (as of June 2008)

Location and size: Held in a private kitchen in Oakland with a limit of 13.

Cost: $600. The fee covers the five full days and includes:

  • personal instruction in a private kitchen setting
  • all food costs
  • selected beverages
  • written recipes
  • a certificate of completion of the course
  • Class hours:
         Monday (day 1): 9:00 a.m. to 4:00/5:00 p.m.;
         Tuesday through Thursday (days 2 through 4): 9:30 a.m. to 4:00/5:00 p.m.;
         Friday (day 5): 9:30 a.m. through 5:00/6:00 p.m.

    It is difficult to give an exact ending time for the classes as it depends on the make-up of the group and on how many questions are asked. It is best to just plan to be here until the end of the day.

    Class Notification

    If you want to receive notice of the classes, whenever they are announced, there are two options:

    • For a one-time only email notification of the next available schedule, email Kasma..

    A Note on Food

    Kasma believes strongly in the value of traditional and traditionally raised (organic) whole foods. Whenever possible, the produce used in our classes is organic – unfortunately, many Asian herbs and vegetables are not available as organically-raised produce.

    With rare exceptions – for a few cuts of meat that are used in dishes in advanced classes, we need to use cuts unavailable in western markets – our pork is either organic from Canada or raised naturally by Niman Ranch. When possible we purchase grass-fed beef and when unavailable we purchase beef from either Harris Ranch (raised without antibiotics or growth hormones) or Niman Ranch. Kasma mostly uses the Happy Dan hens for her chickens (no antibiotics or hormones).

    Kasma is a strong supporter of The Weston A. Price Foundation. We recommend a thorough perusal of the great information on their website as an antidote to the incredibly inaccurate information about food and health that we are normally given. You can read a summary of Price's Dietary Wisdom on our site.


    Description

    Mesh Basket

    As requested by previous participants of Kasma's summer weeklong intensive, a second intermediate to advanced level weeklong course. To qualify, participants must have completed either the first weeklong intensive or both the beginning and intermediate Thai cooking series.

    There are currently three different advanced intensive classes – Menu Set A, Menu Set B and Menu Set C. They may be taken in any order although we recommend that you start with Set A or Set B.

    The course will assume that attendants already have a good working knowledge of basic ingredients, such as lemon grass, galanga, kaffir lime peel and leaves, tamarind, – nahm prik pow (roasted chilli paste) and – gkapi shrimp paste, etc., as they are used in Thai cooking, and are proficient in basic Thai cooking processes and techniques, such as the art of balancing and harmonizing flavors, curry making, sauce making, and wok, steamer and mortar and pestle techniques, etc.

    As with the beginning intensive, students will divide into teams to do the food preparation then come together as a group to watch the final cooking. Students do most of the cooking in this class although Kasma will do some of the difficult dishes herself.

    As with all of Kasma's classes, enrollment in the advenced intensive classes will be limited to thirteen participants, so that each and everyone can get hands-on experience and personal attention. Building on the fundamental principles learned in earlier classes, you will be introduced to a number of new ingredients and many new ways on how to innovatively work with the multitude of ingredients to create new and exciting flavor combinations in exquisite dishes fit for the sophisticated palate. The course will be fully participatory in a casual atmosphere, so that you have a fun time cooking with other food-loving people and take part in creating the scrumptious feast that we will all enjoy each day.

    Registration

    To reserve your spot for the Advanced Thai cooking intensive in July or August 2008, first contact Kasma to make sure there are spaces available. (See Contact Kasma.)

    We do ask for a $150 deposit to hold a spot. Do not mail a deposit until it is confirmed that there is still a space for you. If you subsequently must cancel or wish to transfer into a different class, we will refund $100 (there's a $50 processing fee) provided that you notify us by the date final payment is due, 6 weeks before the first class (see below).

    Paying the deposit is the only way to ensure that there will be a spot for you in the intensive. We do not always have time to follow up when someone does not send in the deposit – and there have been occasions in the past where our follow-up email was not received or not received in time and someone lost a place. We generally allow two weeks for you to send the deposit and if we do not receive it may mistakingly assume you have changed your mind and will not be attending – so it is best to get in touch with us if you have not received our acknowledgment within two weeks from the date of acceptance. If you are unable or unwilling to make a deposit at this time, you can always check back in later and see if spaces are still available.

    The balance of $450 is due 6 weeks before the intensive start date:

    • June 9, 2008 (July 21 through 25, 2008 – Advanced Set C)
    • July 7, 2008 (August 18 through 22, 2008 – Advanced Set A)
    • June 8, 2009 (July 20 through 24, 2008 – Advanced Set A)
    • July 7, 2008 (August 17 through 21, 2009 – Advanced Set B)

    Refund policy: If you wish to withdraw from an intensive or transfer into a different class, a refund of $100(class deposit less a $50 handling fee) will be made if you notify us before the final payment date (see above). After that time, no money is refundable. If an emergency should arise following the given date for your intensive and you are not able to attend, you may have a qualified friend come in your place. Deposits are not transferable.
