Frequently Asked Questions
What if I'm not an experienced cook?
Our training starts with absolute fundamentals. Every technique is broken down step-by-step with video demonstrations. We assume no prior knowledge and build your confidence progressively through hands-on practice.
Do these methods work for family meals?
Yes. All our techniques are designed for practical, everyday cooking. Whether preparing meals for one or feeding a family, you'll learn how to scale recipes and use methods that work in home kitchens, not just professional restaurants.
How long does the training take?
You progress at your own pace. Most students complete the core modules within 4-6 weeks if studying 30-45 minutes daily. However, you have lifetime access, so you can revisit lessons anytime or progress more slowly as needed.
Are the recipes just salads and rabbit food?
Not at all. Our recipes include hearty soups, flavorful stir-fries, grilled meats and fish, pasta dishes, desserts, and international cuisine. The focus is on satisfaction and real food, not deprivation or bland eating.
Do I need special equipment or expensive ingredients?
No. Our methods work with basic kitchen tools: a good knife, cutting board, pots, pans, and a heat source. We use everyday ingredients available in standard supermarkets and Mediterranean markets throughout Greece and Europe.
