About Cooking with Confidence
Cooking with Confidence is our introductory culinary health class designed to teach ways to transform your kitchen into a setting for flavor, confidence, and health. This is a demonstration-style experience where a local chef, home cook, or nutrition specialist prepares a plant-based dish while teaching cooking and preparation techniques such as refining knife skills, proper sanitation, or kitchen management.

Guests engage with the host throughout the demonstration, ask questions in real time, and learn key nutrition insights and cooking techniques and leave with a copy of the recipe to recreate at home.

Whether you’re starting your healthy plant-based eating journey or looking for ways to refresh your skills, this event will open the door to more confidence, creativity, and inspiration in the kitchen!

What You’ll Experience:

Friendly and relaxed atmosphere
Guided tour of the 4Roots Farm gardens and growing systems.
Hands-on interactive preparation of kimchi.
Guest will leave with their own jar of freshly made kimchi.
