Tales From Our Kitchen
Hear how our students have expanded their cooking skills and cultural appreciation
Before joining Balanced Origin Network, I was hesitant to go beyond simple Indian dishes. Today I confidently craft Thai curries, hand-make fresh pasta, and even try Japanese techniques. The instructors made each cuisine approachable and connected it to its cultural roots.
