Cooking For a Crowd

Lesson 1: Initial Considerations

Getting Started

As with almost every project, the hardest part is getting started. When cooking for a crowd, getting started means choosing which food you want to serve. This point is where you’re tempted to fall back on the tried and true – the recipes that you’ve used time and again – or buying prepared food.

There can be a place for both of those approaches, but the purpose of this course is to encourage you to be a little experimental, have some fun and be unpredictable. To successfully branch out, however, you initially need to set some parameters. You need to define the type of party, set the budget, begin to zero in on food choices, and get organized.
