Presents Live Stream Cooking Classes!

Cook with Jen

Jen is back with classes this month! Please see the updated class schedule.

Suggested donation: $25 or more via PayPal

Jen is also available for private classes — get a group of friends, family, or colleagues together to celebrate a birthday, have a reunion, hold a company team building event, or just make a Zoom date more fun … flexible times & flexible menus available. Please email classes@blacksesamekitchen.com.

Why I Want to Cook For You

Since the pandemic began, all of our lives have been upended. The isolation, the many changes we’ve had to make in our routines, and the endless cooking haven’t been easy for any of us.

I’ve started doing live stream cooking classes as a service to the Black Sesame Kitchen community and to the wider world in general. I hope to make a small difference by virtually being with you in your kitchen.

I hope you get something out of them — perhaps a few new ideas for home cooking, a tip or two that helps make your cooking easier, and maybe just some inspiration — in and out of the kitchen.

But I have to admit I’m also doing the classes for selfish reasons: I miss being able to connect with friends, family, and our guests at Black Sesame Kitchen. The classes have given me a reason to get out of my sweatpants — though I might still wear them in some of my cooking sessions! — and to share my love of cooking with you.

The classes will continue to be free. But if you enjoy them and it’s within your budget, please consider donating to our cause: bringing people together around the world through food. Donations can be made through PayPal or directly by credit card if you email us with the amount you’d like to donate.

I’ll be updating this page with our upcoming classes, but in the meantime, please sign up for my newsletter below if you’re interested in joining our community. Thank you for your support — it means even more during this challenging period.

Keep calm and keep cooking,

Jen
