In summary, for your friend's open house cooking show, you can have an interactive cooking demo, start with an introduction, share tips and tricks, and have a Q&A session. Just have fun and be yourself!

Hi,
My friend wants to host a cooking show (my first) and she and I know a lot of the same people so we are using the show (Dec 10) as my launch. I think there will be quite a few people but she has requested it be an open house format. sooo..... do you do an interactive cooking demo and just keep going as people are coming and going? I would really love any ideas you all might have as well as format of how to. We are making the pepermint bark, using the cookie press - holiday themed show. Any help would be appreciated so I don't look like a fool:eek:
 
For an open house I always bring food already made (the host can reimburse you for the ingredients) and simply make sure I'm there to interact and answer questions.
 
Hi there!First of all, congratulations to your friend on hosting her first cooking show and to you for being a part of it! Hosting a cooking show can be a lot of fun and I'm sure it will be a great success.In terms of the open house format, I think it's a great idea to have an interactive cooking demo. This will allow you to engage with your audience and keep them entertained even as people are coming and going. You can also have some fun with it by asking for volunteers from the audience to come up and help with certain steps of the recipe.As for the format, I would suggest starting off with a brief introduction of yourself and your friend, as well as the concept of the show. Then, dive into the recipe and explain each step as you go along. You can also share some tips and tricks for making the perfect peppermint bark.To make things more interesting, you can also have a Q&A session where people can ask you and your friend any questions they may have about the recipe or cooking in general. This will also give you a chance to interact with your audience and make them feel more involved.Lastly, don't worry about looking like a fool. Just have fun with it and be yourself. Your enthusiasm and passion for cooking will shine through and your audience will appreciate it. Good luck with the show and I hope it's a huge success!
