If you want to cook with us, you can buy the groceries and cook Pad Thai with us during the livestream. Here are the ingredients that you will need to prepare in advance. If you're vegetarian or vegan, just leave meat, eggs and fish sauce out and get extra tofu for example. No need to cut anything in advance. During the class we will cut together, cook, and eat Pad Thai!
The livestream is free of charge but we accept donations in the form of superchats and superstickers.

• 12 How my Thai husband...
And this is the one we did in the beautiful Wooda House, one of the first videos I have ever done:
• 3 How my Thai husband ...
Q&A about the live stream:
- When is it?
On Saturday the 29th of July!
- What time is it?
The time depends on where you are based. This is a guideline:
UK 5 PM
EUROPE 6 PM
PST 9 AM
MST 10 AM
CST 11 AM
EST 12 NOON
Unfortunately the time for those in South-East Asia and Australia is not really convenient. Sorry for that! If this one goes well, we will do several with different dishes at different times.
What are we cooking?
We are cooking Pad Thai! The famous noodles from Thailand. We chose Pad Thai because it's a popular dish that many people know and not too difficult to cook. But if we like this new format, we could cook many dishes together!
How much does it cost?
The livestream is totally free. However, we will be grateful for a donation in the form of a superchat or supersticker. If you are not able to afford that, don't worry! We are happy if you can, but still very happy if not. If you want to cook with us, you will need to pay for the groceries of course in advance.
How long will the livestream take?
It will be about one hour, first we cut all the ingredients and then we cook together.
Do I need to cut anything in advance?
No need to cut in advance, we will do that together during the livestream.
What if I want to watch but not cook?
You're very welcome!
What if I want to cook but I'm not free on this day?
