Indian Cooking Classes in Columbus, OH

What’s Being Said

The class was so great. Bidisha was super informative, answered every question, and made everyone feel like a part of the class. She gave us several ways to adapt the meal to different tastes and how to make alternate versions. She made plenty for all of us to have seconds and even had some leftover after that. Highly recommend!

  This was an experience gift for my son and daughter in love.  We learned a lot about the different cuisines on relation to the regions in India, some helpful tops and tricks in preparation.  We consider ourselves foodies and really wanted to experience authentic ingredients and teachings and we were not disappointed!! We will definitely schedule another session as the good was delicious!! So fun!!

  An absolutely wonderful experience. Bidisha is a wonderful host and teacher. The process she has designed for the classes works wonderfully as well. Before the class, you are invited to choose the dishes you would like to learn. At the start of the class, Bidisha asks about heat (spice) tolerance and any dietary restrictions. Students take an active roll in preparation and cooking. Food history is discussed along the way. Finally the class culminates with dinner (and left-overs, if any). We had a wonderful time and will certainly do it again.

  We had a great experience with Bidisha and highly recommend taking her cooking class! Several in our group had various levels of comfortability in terms of cooking Indian cuisine and we all left more knowledgeable and confident in cooking Indian food.

  Fun class in the privacy of the teacher's home. We walked away with 4 vegan recipes that we used to host an Indian dinner.

  Such a lovely experience! Bidisha was friendly, welcoming, and highly knowledgeable. She has an amazing working kitchen and really helped to demystify Indian cuisine. It was the perfect way to celebrate the holidays with my family, and would make for a great date night as well.

  We LOVED this class, and had such a great time with Bidisha. Indian food has been such a mystery to me, and I feel like a door has been opened. Bidisha is so friendly and fun. Thank you! We will be back to learn more :)

What an amazing time we had learning to cook a new Indian meal. Bidisha did a great job not only teaching us how to cook the meal, but also how to time it so everything finished at the same. The dinner that followed was delicious. My entire group loved the experience and 100% recommends Create Your Curry.
