    foodperson.com — Authority Authority: 92
    My first challenge: Teach novices to cook in 2 hours. What was I thinking? My second challenge: Same time frame, narrower focus. This time, it was grassfed beef and pastured chicken and pork. As promised, here’s a look at those two cooking classes, each attended by ten persons. (You can read the course ...
