One might think that writing a recipe is an easy task; just list some ingredients, their amounts and give some simple instructions on how to combine them, then roast, bake, boil or fry them. But it’s not that easy! Writing a recipe that takes a cook’s hand and guides them into turning out a delicious dish, takes great skill, with a large pinch of talent thrown in.

Come join us as Raeanne Sarazen, registered dietitian and chef, gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the grueling and glorious art of recipe writing. Raeanne will also delve into the history and evolution of recipes, the art of headnote writing, and the importance of nutrition standards.

Raeanne will reference her recently published book, The Complete Recipe Writing Guide, which is an awards finalist at the International Association of Culinary Professionals.
