Senne bakt zuurdesembrood in een gietijzeren panSenne geeft uitleg tijdens een workshopSenne in de workshopkeuken met zelfgebakken zuurdesembrood
Hi, I'm Senne, a chef. I trained at ROC Nieuwegein, a Dutch vocational college.
In my workshops you really get stuck in yourself: dough on your hands, massaging cabbage or rolling pasta.

Along the way you learn why it works. Why does dough rise? Why does kimchi turn sour? Once you understand what is happening, it works at home too, without me standing next to you.

You go home with your own dough or a jar of kimchi, or with a belly full of homemade pasta. I give workshops at various places in Amsterdam.

Would you like one with your team or friends, at your own location? I'm happy to come to you outside Amsterdam too. And every workshop can be taught in English.
