Local chef introduces virtual cooking classes
People have started to make more meals at home since the pandemic began. Chef Chris Welsh, the owner of the personal chef service Secret Ingredient, started giving virtual cooking lessons in 2020. Her first virtual cooking program was with a women’s networking group looking for a safe holiday activity to do together since they couldn’t meet in person. Welsh did an online food demonstration for the group and received rave reviews from participants. The interactive online cooking classes are a great way for families and friends to celebrate together when they can’t see each other in person. For a virtual food lesson, participants are sent a grocery list to buy ingredients. Then, everyone signs onto Zoom for a 60-to90-minute interactive cooking lesson.
