About Emily
Emily Carey has been teaching people to cook classic and original dishes for over 8 years, driven by her passion to make home cooking more widely accessible.
Her childhood, in a home where good food, especially Mediterranean food was enjoyed, started her off on a journey of discovery and exploration. She developed an eye for good recipes and learning what foods work well together, adding to this a flair for bringing food and people together, and that became the basis for Get Cooking.
With a simple start in 2010, and the opening of an exciting and unique venue in Farsley in 2016, she has continually incorporated fresh ideas into the business.
What to bring?
Ingredients, an apron and copies of recipes are all provided.
You just need to bring your own medium / large plastic sealable containers to take away the dish(es) you make!

The dishes we learned were very authentic and is clear the quality of the ingredients were the best (Pete)
I loved it and I have practised the recipes at home and surprised how simple they are to make! (Frances)
The facilities are excellent (think TV Masterchef kitchen with your own work-station) but the atmosphere is friendly and informal – you are made to feel very welcome. Excellent! I will be back! (Pete)
