From the VERY little that I know ~ you can't use a non-kosher pan/utensils to cook their food. They have 2 sets of pots & pans ~ one to cook their kosher meat & one to cook their kosher dairy. They can't even use the same dish pan, sponge, drying cloth to wash the dishes for fear of cross contaminating the dairy with the meat. So taking your cooking tools might be a big deal for them. But I've also read that the rules only apply to hot food. So utensils used for non-cooked foods (cutting board, knives, food chopper, etc.) appear to be okay ... not positive on that though ... you'll want to confirm with them!!!All fruits & veggies are okay, as long as they've been inspected & have no bugs/worms. I'm sure if you have them do the shopping, stick with a salad for the side & then maybe salmon (which can be eaten with dairy) as the main meal you'll probably be okay ... assuming you get the cooking tools worked out as well.- 12,926

To make your kosher demo interactive, consider dividing guests into smaller groups to prepare different components of the meal.

If you run out of time during your kosher demo, prioritize the key recipes and focus on demonstrating the most important techniques. You can also prepare some components in advance and explain the remaining steps quickly. Providing printed recipes for guests to take home can help them recreate the dishes later.
