Ketofest Cooks! Cooking Demos at Ketofest 2017

When Richard Morris and I started planning the very first Ketofest back in 2016, one element we really wanted was a day of cooking classes. There happened to be a commercial kitchen available at the Spark Makerspace in New London, just a short walk from where the main event was happening on Social Saturday (July 15th). The kitchen area can hold about 60 people standing comfortably, so it seemed like a great fit. I worked with Spark to hang a large-screen TV from the ceiling, with which we could show a live video from a camera in the kitchen. We did nine 30-minute demonstrations, which included tastings for 40 people (each). Aside from a few logistical snags, it was a huge success!

This post puts the videos and recipes from that day in one place.  You can always get back here from cooks.ketofest.com. Please share it far and wide!
