Those looking to improve their cooking skills ahead of the holidays will be drawn to this list of 10 virtual cooking experiences that showcase how to prepare a variety of meals and dishes.
Notably, the world-famous Omni Grove Park Inn – a historic hotel in North Carolina – is helping fans celebrate the holidays with an online cooking course with Chef Carla Hall. In addition, the inn is providing a virtual '12 Days of Gingerbread,' a physical distancing way to celebrate the 2020 National Gingerbread House competition winners while staying apart.
Those looking for a kid-friendly option should consider Chad Sarno's Wicked Healthy Kids series that shows children how to create vegan dishes. The plant-based meals were designed to be quick and easy and include a variety of recipes such as mini pizzas and Shepherd's pie.
