Chefs Make the Paper!

Here's a shot of our first planning session:

Be sure to check the paper for a shot this week too. It's not surprising that we successfully lure reporters to cover kitchen events - there are some tasty benefits!

Our cooking session went really well this week! I think everyone learned a thing or two - how to steam cabbage for rolling, how to pinch dough into perogies... There are as many ways to fill a perogy as there are to spell the food item itself!

Our only real hurdle was that as we multiplied out our recipes to fit our desired portions, some servings were lost in computation. So next time we know to err on the side of making too much!

Speaking of next time, we'll be planning our recipe on October 7th, at 6:30 at the CRC, and cooking it up on October 14th, same time and place. Contact me to join in!

Quick reminder: cooking tonight (Wednesday the 16th), at 6:30, at the CRC kitchen!

We're cooking up cabbage rolls and perogues - one of our chefs is an expert at these dishes, and we're planning on assembling a freezer-full!

If you're coming out, bring an apron if you like, and containers to bring your creations home in. If you missed the planning session but want to come out to cook in the future, contact me and I'll sign you up!
