Cooking class goes virtual

Just before the pandemic hit, Mel Zastrow was preparing to teach her middle school students to cook the old-fashioned way, piled into a kitchen together. But the show, and the pound cake, must go on, so Mel, a teacher at Monona's MG21 charter school, took her cooking lessons online, producing and starring in "Mel Cooks," a Youtube show in which she demonstrates how to make her students' favorite dishes. On this week's podcast, she talks with Lindsay and Chris about learning to edit video and how she picks the perfect accordion tune for each baking session.Support the show: https://checkout.fundjournalism.org/memberform?org_id=capitaltimes&campaign=7013i000000U67DAASSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
