Fuzzy Chef Cooking Classes[edit]

If they become a regular thing, these will be held on Thursdays in the Noisebridge kitchen. The purpose of the classes are to have fun, eat good food, learn to cook, and to raise money for new NB kitchen equipment.

Cuisine and techniques explored will focus on various ethnic foods, with an emphasis on meatless or low-meat food. In general, recipes will be home-cooking oriented. All classes will be hands-on, and participants are requested to help with the washing-up.

Money from the classes will go entirely towards ingredients and NB kitchen equipment, and maybe cab fare for the teacher.
