The Brooklyn Kitchen is a radical cooking school on a mission to change the world by teaching people how to cook like grown ups. We specialize in interactive and educational experiences that foster community and redefine home cooking for everyone. Our diverse clientele come to us for memorable, in-person gatherings in our spacious kitchens designed to energize and inspire. While today’s culture tends to focus on talking about, watching and photographing food, less emphasis has been placed on where it comes from and how to prepare it. The Brooklyn Kitchen aims to change that by teaching technique and confidence and instilling curiosity. The Radical Cooking School was born out of a need for modern home economics.

During the hands-on cooking classes, everything you eat, you have prepared! Our classes are perfect for the home chef and those who burn toast. Let your tastebuds experience new cuisines. Classes and menus vary monthly. Dietary needs and sensitivities can be accommodated upon request. Special menus can be created upon request for private events. All classes include the experience of learning to create a signature cocktail-unless otherwise stated. If you care to bring your own bottle to enjoy instead, you are more than welcome. Classes are intimate and structured to create a welcoming and social environment. School Notes: All classes are completely HANDS-ON. Every student is equipped with a cutting board and chef's knife around a large center island facing your host. All students work to prepare ingredients that will be used in the meal by learning skills such as chopping, pairing, dicing, seasoning, etc. All cooking is completed in this single stove/family style kitchen and everyone is invited to assist during all levels of meal preparation.

I’m Mukti Banerjee and I decided to start Mukti's Kitchen when a few good friends insisted that I did something to let others know about my Indian cooking and the variety and uniqueness of it. I grew up in Bengali, North and East Indian food and cultural traditions. I have a desire to share my passion of food with people to empower and help to cook for themselves and eat more healthy diets and be happy and healthy. You can be more creative in use of spices if you know its uses better.
