#EdenCooks - Thursday, April 14th at 8pm EST

Contributor: Alys Alys
Welcome to the second ever meeting of Eden Cooks!

This club is for any members of the members of the Eden community who are interested in learning more about cooking. We will meet on the forum to discuss everything from tips and pointers for less well-equipped kitchens, explanations of confusing cooking terms and important techniques. There will be a featured recipe each meeting, with pictures taken as I prepare it for you. I will cover some ingredient substitutions to make each recipe covered more friendly to people with dietary restrictions.

A $25 gift card will be awarded during the meeting for the winner of a contest where you guess the lesser known kitchen implement from a series of photos that I take. And another will be given to the winner of a trivia contest.

This month’s recipe will be a Mediterranean fish dish that is easily converted to a pasta dish for those among us who don’t eat fish. The meeting will take place here on the forum at 8 pm EST on Thursday, April 14th. I hope to see you here!

Last month’s meeting which featured a roasted squash soup can be found here.

I will be available through private messages on Eden, or through my email: alys (dot) alcyone (at) gmail (dot) com for questions as to techniques you want to see covered during the next meeting, or suggestions for recipes you would like to see made in a future meeting.

It's pretty easy, you just show up!

The meetings take place here in the forum, but there are a few other places to look for some fun Eden Cooks knowledge. Here's last month's meeting, here's a thread to have your cooking questions answered by myself or other members of the cooking community, and here's last month's Iron Chef Eden challenge.

You can also check out the Eden Cooks corner in the Eden Clubs & Events blog here.

Hope I didn't overwhelm you

Alys, of course, covered things quite well. To clarify, the meeting on Thursday is not just in this forum, but in this very thread.

Hot. I had a nice long talk with my mom while I was there about what I do on EF and everything else, so that was...interesting.

She's my mom. I just wanted her to know about what's going on in my life. She took it like I figured - you'll appreciate this Alys - she mostly shook her head and laughed.
