Hi, I’m Chef Haine Herold - and I’m excited to cook with you.

For the past 20 years, I’ve been exploring kitchens across Peru and around the world: teaching gastronomy at universities, consulting for restaurants, and writing about the flavors that shaped me. But nothing brings me more joy than sharing Peruvian cuisine with people who are curious, hungry, and ready to have a good time.

When you join my class, I want you to feel like you’ve stepped into my kitchen in Lima. I’ll walk you through the dishes I grew up with, show you the techniques behind Peru’s vibrant citrus-forward flavors, and tell you the stories that make each recipe special. We’ll cook, learn, and discover together — at a pace that keeps things fun and stress-free.

My goal?

To give your group a warm, memorable, and truly Peruvian experience — the kind you’ll keep talking about long after the last bite. HeineInsta
