About Cooking Club
Dear Kinfoodies,
Thank you so much for being a part of our journey. I’m excited to share that we’re pivoting to become a cooking club because dinner’s better when we cook together!
Our in-house chefs have adapted a professional culinary education for the home chef and together, we’ll learn 1-2 skills each week in a learn-by-doing approach. Each week, members get three seasonal recipes along with skill tutorials. We also plan to hold monthly in-person workshops and meet ups.
Skill Badges
For each cooking skill you learn, you’ll earn a skill badge worth a certain number of Kin Coins. Kin Coins can be applied towards merchandise, classes, and events!
Why a Cooking Club?
It feels like we’re in the midst of a community apocalypse. There are 21.5 million print cookbooks sold each year. #TikTokFood has over 25.2 billion views. 370 million recipes just on AllRecipes.com. And yet, most of us are on our own in the kitchen.
People used to cook and grocery shop in community and transmit their know-how to the next generation. Life in the tech-age often means isolation in the kitchen, feeling overwhelmed with information about how we should be eating and what we should be cooking, and discouraged about our ability to live sustainably.
We’ve come to believe that dinner and cooking is stressful, however it's the lack of skill and community. We envision a world where dinner is the best part of the day, when we can feel at home and connect with our favorite people.
I hope you’ll join us!
Warmly,
Kelly Singer
Kinfood Founder
