[Plan] 8 Free Pressure Cooker Demostrations in S.F. Bay Area

I'm in the U.S. (from Italy) for a month of pressure cooker demonstrations, and you’re all invited!

Come to see, hear and taste for yourself how much pressure cookers have changed and learn - why they cook so quickly, the latest safety mechanisms and some really neat home-cooking techniques. The menu includes an eggplant and olive dip, then a cannellini bean salad which is cooked together with pork ribs – a one pot meal recipe from my upcoming cookbook “hip pressure cooking” (St. Martin’s press Fall 2014). Dessert will show how you can kiss your oven goodbye in the summer with little steamed chocolate olive oil lemon cakes.

The two hour demonstrations are free, include tasting the dishes and I stay behind for an extra hour to answer any questions I could not address during the demo and speak to the attendees individually. As a pressure cooker expert, I’m not representing any specific pressure cooker brand - the cooking demos for three different manufacturers.

My goal is to get you pressure cooking, no matter what kind of pressure cooker you have or are planning to buy.

Here is the schedule:

  • August 8th, Thursday 12 noon, Williams-Sonoma, 122 N Santa Cruz Ave, Los Gatos, CA -(408) 354-7302 with Fagor

NOTE: I do these demonstrations free of charge for the manufacturers and am only reimbursed for the ingredients used and gas spent to get there. There is no sales pitch at the demos and I do not personally gain from holding the events (though I do spend quite a bit of my own money come and stay in the U.S. and time to organize, prep and hold the demonstrations).
