Attention Cooks and Friends of Cooks Everywhere!

Here’s What This is All About

I used to be just like you! I loved cooking, but was never able to take my cooking skills beyond the handful of recipes that I could make.
Does this sound familiar?

How did I overcome this obstacle and become a creative and confident cook?
Well, I went to culinary school!

Two years and $40,000 later – I got it! Cooking is NOT about recipes. It’s about learning the fundamentals (the Basic Cooking Methods, as I call them) and then applying that knowledge with your own creativity to ANY recipe.

BUT
You don’t have to go to culinary school

to be a better cook at home!

If you’ve followed my cooking instruction videos on my video blog – or on this website, you know it is my passion to teach you the fundamentals of cooking – The Basic Cooking Methods I learned in Culinary School – that make cooking work and help you to understand and better use written recipes for great results.

What People are saying about Burn Your Recipes:

“This is a fundamental change from cook book instructions. This cooking instruction is NEW and EXCITING and very approachable for the average person to transform the way they prepare and cook food. Based on my own personal experience with Chef Todd’s cooking instruction, I am positive it will make you 300% better! Chef Todd is informative, skilled – both in the kitchen and in education. The DVD is at a pace that keeps you interested. Viewing a few chapters prior to starting a meal should improve your delivery many times over! For less than the cost of one night out to dinner, anyone who likes to eat should own this DVD.”< BR>~Dave Allison
Marketing and Sales Director, Food and Wine Enthusiast
Horizon Wine Cellars

“I have so many cooking books I could start my own shop, but none really seem to give you everything. They always leave things out so you have to learn more. “Burn Your Recipes, Volume 1″ gives the basics that are not given to you unless you are training to be a chef and paying a lot of money. I love short cuts, but you don’t need short cuts if you know the basics. I got my moneys worth just from learning which knives, pots & pans to have in my Kitchen. Thanks for making the video and look forward to vol 2.”

~Guy Normas, UK

“I love your DVD , thanks. I especially liked the knife skills section. I really liked how you dealt with several items of produce rather than just an onion and a tomato. Since viewing your DVD and videos, and with a lot of practice, I can chop quickly , safely and impressively. I have even mastered de-boning and buy whole tenderloins to cut up (man, it’s SOOOO tender). Thanks again..I’m so much better off now.”

~Cal, Australia

“While I am not a formally trained chef/Cook, I have attended many cooking classes, including those from the Culinary Institute of America. I have always wanted to break away from the cookbook style of cooking and to better understand what was happening and how to execute with my own spin on the dishes I prepared. While these classes were good, I still lacked a good understanding of the basics and how to come up with my own “recipe”. Not only did Chef Todd’s DVD and vast library of instructional videos help me better understand the basics, he did what the classes were unable to do – show me how to “Burn My recipes”.”

~Steve Howard, Texas (US)

“Learn Basic Skills”

ken.roberts - cooking classesKen Roberts,
Web Cooking Classes 1
Basic Cooking Methods
Graduate:

"[WebCookingClasses] is WONDERFUL and VERY informative for learning all of the basic cooking skills you need to cook everything. Chef Todd's style of teaching is great. It's funny and entertaining, while sharing a wealth of knowledge - knowledge that I haven't found anywhere else. Because of many obligations, I cannot even think of attending formal culinary arts school right now. This online cooking 'school' is an awesome alternative. They are worth the money for anyone who wants to learn to cook!"

“Cook at a New Level”

greg.rhodesGregg Rhodes,
Web Cooking Classes 1
Basic Cooking Methods
Graduate:

"This experience has been a real eye opener for me. People always told me that I was an excellent cook, but I have learned valuable things in Web Cooking Classes that I didn't expect to learn. Web Cooking Classes has taught me the basics I didn't even know I was missing. I have gained confidence, gotten much quicker at prep and love the knife skills I've learned. This has helped me cook better healthy meals and I am now a successful, happy and healthy diabetic. Chef Todd's instruction has taken my cooking to a new level and helped me to put some fine touches to my favorite hobby."

“A liberated cook”

ana.echeniqueAna Echenique,
Web Cooking Classes 1
Basic Cooking Methods
Graduate:

“I was a Beginner Cook with some experience hoping to learn cooking techniques to apply to many foods. Because of Web Cooking Classes, I now have the confidence and ability to change recipes, using ingredients on hand. This has given me a greater ability to cook a variety of foods. I now have confidence to entertain, no longer stuck in a recipe and afraid to change things. Web Cooking Classes will liberate you into a free thinking cook.”

“A Great Investment”

steve.pageSteve Page,
Web Cooking Classes 1
Basic Cooking Methods
Graduate:

“When I discovered Web Cooking Classes, I was an adequate cook, looking to eliminate the "Hit or Miss" factor in cooking. We used to eat out three times a week and now cook at home almost every night. We also entertain for friends at least once a week, and even our most mundane meals are improved through better cooking methods. I now enjoy food delivered at the proper temperature that is neither burnt nor dried out. Web Cooking Classes is a great investment and will change your life for the better."

“End Cooking Stress”

dave.allisonDave Allison,
Web Cooking Classes 1
Basic Cooking Methods
Graduate:

“I liked to cook but lacked the confidence to experiment. Learning techniques in Web Cooking Classes changed all that and completely eliminated my stress over cooking. I now cook 5 to 10 times every week using the skills I learned from Chef Todd."

“I Used to Panic”

ken.handleyKen Handley,
Web Cooking Classes 1
Basic Cooking Methods
Graduate:

“When I discovered Web Cooking Classes, I was a total novice with one main goal: to be able to cook and serve up nice meals for my family. What I ended up with was confidence in the kitchen, which I didn’t have before. I used to panic! My cooking has increased 100% considering I did none previously. If you want to be able to cook nice meals for your family, and you are considering investing in Web Cooking Classes, I say, ‘go for it!’”

Empowering

“Before I ever heard of Chef Todd Mohr, I didn't know the difference between sauté and soufflé. But just tonight, I had my first culinary adventure: sautéed shrimp with onions, garlic, yellow pepper, celery with white cranberry juice to deglaze the pan. It was YUMMY! I couldn't believe I made something so simple, yet so good! All because I used my creativity along with what Chef Todd taught me! Because of you, I can never again say, ‘I can't cook!’ You've inspired and empowered me in the kitchen!” Chris, New Brunswick Canada

Life-Changing

“I just thought it was necessary to let you know how much you've changed my life! I've always liked to cook but you've turned his "like" into a passion. I really studied your instruction and took notes to learn as much as possible. This is the closest thing to cooking school without actually going!” Ryan, USA

Love Cooking

“Your insight and instruction has freed me from the curse of recipes. I have a renewed love for cooking.” Michael, USA

Cook Healthy

“My wife and I just love the freedom we have discovered through cooking coarse. It is making it very simple to cook healthy meals. We no longer shop by recipe. We buy what is fresh and healthy and then apply the cooking methods to the ingredients. So much easier. Thank you.” Roger, United States

Aspiring Chef

“Hey Todd, I just wanted to tell you that you really, really helped me out, I'm in culinary school right now (age 17) And I just kinda lost my hope of ever becoming a great chef because I thought I lacked the creativity. I know it's kinda silly But dude! You and your videos really helped me out, I know this sounds kinda cheesy, but thanks a lot because you were just what I needed!” Rasmus Vibe, Denmark

Inspiring

“Hello. I am a chef from Scotland who has trained people to cook. But your cooking instruction has given me a new lease on life and inspired me to try new things when I return to work teaching in August.” Ronnie, United Kingdom

Cooking Methods

“Finally! I have been searching for a place that would teach the methods / techniques / the science behind cooking and baking. I can't tell you how much this means to me. I love to cook and bake but without a recipe I am blind. After going over some of your videos it's like a whole new world has opened up to me. Thanks so much for the new vision.” Rob, Canada

No Recipes

“You have heard it a million and seven times I'm sure ...but you have inspired me greatly. I love your theology of teaching methods rather than recipes. I have tried many of those and they usually don't work out because the writer doesn't know my personal conditions (pans, how my stove's heat works, altitude, etc). They have discouraged me. You and your videos have lifted me up again. I want to thank you deeply for that. I love cooking now and am very passionate about it. I have developed my own personal "recipes" and love being in the kitchen." Jared, United States

Cook with Confidence

“Thank you Chef Todd for teaching me basic cooking methods!!! I don't feel stressed out in the kitchen anymore and am really looking forward to meal prep. I am faster, confident and have fun in the kitchen again. My husband is also enjoying the yummy food and jokes that it makes up for all the, ‘Chef Todd said this’ and ‘Chef Todd said that’. :) In addition, I'm no longer in the dark wondering what in the world I will do when we move to the Philippines in 4 months. We are going as Christian missionaries & since we will be living in the jungle, we will have whatever meat and produce the natives have. I used to wonder how I would cook those things as I didn't even feel confident in my own country! Now, I know I can apply the basic cooking methods wherever I am. Really, really, thank you for taking the time to teach me.” Rachel, United States

Stay Young

“I have learned more from you in 3 days than from the Food Network in 3 years. You are an AMAZING instructor! I love to cook, but have been in a rut because I always looked for (forgive me) RECIPES! Now I can do so much more and be free to invent and experiment because you taught me techniques. Thank God I found you before I turn 60 next year. Cooking keeps me young!” Richard, The United States

Questions Answered

“Chef Todd, I just found your site after looking up vids on how to properly cut an onion. I watched your video and within the first 40 seconds I was clicking away to buy your DVD!!! I've never seen anybody tell the truth about recipe books and I was sold. ‘How do you quantify medium heat?!’ That's what I always wanted to know!!! Really looking forward to finally learning to truly cook and not follow directions! Thanks for telling the truth!!!!” Jim, San Jose, CA.

Impress Friends

“Dear Chef Todd, I am a medical student studying at Oxford England and have learned so much from you; I don't know how I survived the long nights before. I just wanted to thank you for all your teachings, and let you know the bug has hit and my student loan was used up entirely on cooking items - you have made my girlfriend particularly happy.” Jeremy, UK

Life-long Skills

“Chef Todd, ever since I saw my dad cook when I was very young I wanted to cook. Through the years I tried and liked my own cooking but I knew I was just so-so. As years passed by I developed a feel for cooking and liked doing things all by hand and by eye. I got pretty good at it, but there comes a time when (as one progresses) he knows that a refining is needed. I bought books and watched TV programs. On You Tube, I have seen a lot of what I thought was good cooking information, but YOU without a doubt are the very BEST! And I love your delivery on air. I have already learned so much and am now an avid fan of your programs. Again I thank you from the bottom of my heart because I do love to cook and bake and you have made me better at it and that is something I'll have till the day I die.” Danny, France

Cooking Pride

“My cooking is getting so good I'm fairly bursting at the seams and thinking about chef school. Thanks Todd... I've always wanted to be good at something and I think it's cooking.” Anne, USA

Cooking Freedom

“Wow! That's all I can say. Thanks for such a great site and information. As an avid ‘foodie’ I have always hated the recipe mentality but have had difficulty breaking out of it, especially with family always asking, ‘What does Betty Crocker Say?’ I have even attended Boot Camps at the Culinary Institute which helped - but wasn't quite enough. Thanks again from a new Fan ( burning the recipes)” Steve, USA

No More Mystery

“I'm sure you get letters like this all the time but I just had to let you know what a Godsend you have been. I have watched cooking shows for years and I have to agree with you that none of these celebrity chefs have any interest in actually teaching people or empowering them to cook. It's all about Food Porn. I just wanted to thank you for finally cutting through all the confusion and mystery around cooking. I never would have had the confidence to make popovers or Gnocchi before I found your instruction. I'm sure you've heard this before, but you really deserve to have your own cooking show. You are entertaining but you are also a great teacher. And Emeril can stick his 'Bam!' where the sun don't shine.” Walter, Vancouver BC Canada

Stress-Free Cooking

“I have really enjoyed your videos. I was off work for a week recently and decided to make some nice meals for my wife and kids. I did the recipe thing. I spent a lot of my week shopping, reading, and preparing complicated recipes that only were enjoyed at about a 50% rate. Since I found your videos, I have been able to prepare enjoyable meals with less stress, even though I am back to work. THANKS!!! You made cooking fun and worthwhile in my house!” Larry, US

Save Money

“Chef Todd you are awesome!! Thank you so much for making these wonderful videos! I started looking for a cooking course I could attend here in the UK. The course I found started off with Knife Skills. So off to the internet to see about knife skills! That is where I found you and I am watching your videos non stop now and have started using your methods to come up with my own recipes! I don't feel the need to take that local course now because I found yours! Thank you again!” John Lynch, UK

Culinary Help

“Just wanted to tell you that as a current culinary student, I find tremendous value in your videos as either re-enforcement or supplementing my studies. Not only are they helpful, they're highly entertaining. (Which makes for easier learning.) I have looked all over the internet for such help and now my searching has finally stopped. Thank you so much!” Will D, USA

Save Time

“I randomly stumbled upon your cooking instruction while fumbling across the internet like a pinball on crack. It has changed everything. In a mere week I have vastly improved my cooking and couldn't be happier. I feel as if all those wasted hours of the food network on my DVR have eaten tiny pieces of my soul... not to mention ruined countless meals. I wanted to take a moment and truly thank you for the opportunity to really learn how to cook from an understandable and replicable method.” Dave, USA

New Discoveries

“THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've been watching your videos for about a week now and it's totally changed the way I cook! I've always liked cooking, but I'm the kind of person that really enjoys WHY the things that work, work. Now I do! I used to HATE when things got stuck to the pan, and now it's a happy treasure!” Joel, USA

Jump-Start

“I am an aspiring chef who is going to attend the CIA in NY this fall and love how you stress technique over reading "directions". I am a musician and I can relate on how you teach. I don’t sit there and read sheets...I play, and that’s how I’ve been taught to cook as well. I just wanted to say thank you for the videos. You are truly an inspiration for me to cook. Anyway, thank you again for all the quirky comments and intellectual foundations behind cooking....I am already going to be sharing these videos with my mom, and finally get her to see things how I have for a while now. Happy Cooking.” Justin, USA

Cooking Success

“I've always liked cooking and beaten my self numerous times for not choosing cooking-school when i was young because it's always been a gamble sitting down at the dinner table. Going to be good or not? After finding out about your "cooking-coarse" I’ve learned so much basics that every project so far has been a success. I've just gotten my handy thermometer to really make sure things are cooked perfectly and looking forward to making a batch of beer pretzels later on today. Once again thanx and keep it up, we really need to learn the fundamentals in these fast-food-ready2eat-meals-no thinking-times.” Janne, Sweden

Learning is Fun

“I just want to say I love watching your videos. I learn so much from them. I have been cooking since I was 12 and am now 50. I believe cooking should be fun and a whole experience. You make people feel at ease and make them want to cook. Keep up the great work. You’re a true joy to watch.” Debra, United States

New Ideas

“Todd, your cooking videos have hooked me into cooking BIG TIME! I practice your process style exclusively and now use recipes only as an idea source on how to flavor something. THANK YOU!” Peter, USA

Knowledge + Passion

“I have to let you know that I love your wisdom. I am a self taught cook. Studying the how to's and why's are my passion. I thank you so much for your terrific information. Bless you” Vicki, USA

Cooking Science

I found your site yesterday and cannot tell you how much I enjoy it and how I am encouraged by your videos. I have been a big fan of making sauces from pretty much anything I saute and have been doing it w/o recipes for a while. I did not know the process could be done with other foods as well. I like how you describe the chemical processes (the fat lining up the starch molecules) and the way you break things down to the basics and build from there. Thank you very much for you efforts and passion.” Jeff, USA

Cook Your Way

“I love all the videos you do.Thank you so much! It’s funny because 2 weeks ago I attempted to make Alfredo sauce and failed. I searched for the recipe online, and every website shows a different recipe. So that didn’t help much. I love your method with cooking with your eyes. You are so right! Thank you again and keep up the good Job!!!!!!” Jodi
