AzTAP’s Lunch & Learn Series are FREE virtual 30-minute interactive
informational sessions highlighting unique assistive technology
related topics. In March, our Lunch & Learn focuses on:

Cooking Safely, Confidently & Independently with Vision Loss: Adaptive
Culinary Tools and Strategies
Introducing: The Blind Kitchen!

[Debra Erickson, the Blind Kitchen Founder, demonstrates how to freeze
and save flavoring in pre-measured portions.]

Cooking with vision loss is possible with the right tools and
strategies to make it a safe, confident and independent experience.
The Blind Kitchen has organized adaptive culinary tools and strategies
to make cooking a reality for any individual that wants to cook
regardless of their level of vision.  The most daunting cooking areas
are explored in this training:

  1.  Heat: How to cook safely with hot foods and surfaces
  2.  Blades: How to safely use and manage sharp knives and other sharp tools
  3.  Efficiency and Organization: How to set up a work area with a
focus on safety, cleanliness, organization and avoiding waste.
For each category listed above, several adaptive culinary tools and
strategies will be exhibited, all with the vision-impaired cook
perspective.

Wednesday, March 1, 2023
12:00-12:30 PM (AZ Time)


Join this Lunch & Learn and hear from The Blind Kitchen’s Executive
Chef and Founder, Debra Erickson, about this new resource for blind
and vision-impaired people who want to cook.
