Live Webinars That Actually Make Your Food Look Better
Forget the theory-heavy lectures. Our webinars are hands-on sessions where you'll watch real plating happen, ask questions in real time, and walk away with techniques you can use tonight. Whether you're plating for Instagram or for a dinner party, we focus on what actually works.
Why Join Our Webinars?
We keep things small. About 20 people per session, so you're not lost in a crowd of hundreds. You can actually get your questions answered.
Each webinar runs between 60 and 90 minutes. We demonstrate a specific technique—maybe it's how to build height on a plate or create contrast with sauces. Then we take you through it step by step.
And here's the thing: you can follow along in your own kitchen if you want. Or just watch and take notes. Either way, you'll see how simple adjustments can completely change how a dish looks.
What We Cover in Each Session
Every webinar focuses on one core skill. We don't try to teach you everything at once. Instead, we go deep on techniques that actually matter when you're standing in front of a plate.
Color Balance
How to combine ingredients so the plate doesn't look flat or monochrome. We talk about natural contrasts, choosing garnishes that pop, and avoiding the beige trap that many home cooks fall into.
Texture Layering
Mixing crispy, smooth, and chunky elements so each bite feels interesting. This isn't just about taste—it's about how the eye reads a plate before the fork even touches it.
Sauce Techniques
Where to put the sauce, how much to use, and when to drizzle versus when to pool. Small changes here can make your dish look intentional instead of sloppy.
Height and Structure
Building upward instead of spreading everything flat. We show you how to stack components without them falling over, using simple tools you already have at home.
Negative Space
Learning when to leave parts of the plate empty. This one surprises people—they think they need to fill every inch. But sometimes less really is more.
Plating for Photos
If you're posting on social media, there are specific tricks that make food photograph better. Lighting matters, sure, but so does how you position everything on the plate.
A Recent Webinar Example
Plating Pasta Without It Looking Like a Mess
Last month we ran a session on pasta—which sounds simple until you actually try to make spaghetti look elegant. Most people just dump it in a bowl. But there are ways to twirl it into a neat nest, add height with the sauce, and finish with garnishes that make sense.
We had a participant who said she'd been making the same carbonara for years. After the webinar, she changed how she plated it. Same recipe, completely different presentation. That's the kind of shift we're after.
Here's what we covered in that session:
- Using tongs to create height instead of letting pasta sit flat
- Where to place crispy bits (like pancetta) so they don't get buried
- Choosing the right bowl size—too big and it looks lost, too small and it's crowded
- Finishing touches that take five seconds but make the dish look restaurant-quality
How to Join
Sessions Start Throughout the Year
We run webinars regularly, usually once or twice a month. You can sign up for individual sessions or grab a bundle if you want to attend several. Each one is recorded, so if you miss it live, you'll still get access to the replay.
No special equipment needed. Just a device with internet and a willingness to try something new. Some people cook along with us. Others just watch and take notes. Both work fine.
If you're tired of plating the same way every time and want to see how small changes can make a big difference, these webinars are a good place to start.
