Editor's Notes

1. Cookstream is an educational platform where people can get their cooking questions answered in real time by a professional chef via video chat. We are making professional chefs accessible by any one from the comfort of their home. Now People have a chance to learn from first hand experience using latest video streaming technology getting personalized cooking support. Its an extremely useful tool for people who cook at home at least occasionally and professional chefs who’d like to get their name out and earn additional income.
2. I personally know a huge difference, being tough by a cookbook or Internet and a professional chef. There is nothing comparable with learning from the first hand experience. I’ve learned not only the right techniques, secrets of different recipes, but also a lot of insights regarding different ingredients and their effects on the taste and our body. Getting advice from a culinary professional when it was needed that what made a huge difference in my cooking experience. But now cooking something nice at home or simply experimenting with new recipes, I don’t have a luxury of such support any more. It is a great frustrations, than you are up to cook something or in the middle of your culinary creation and you need to spend up to half an hour looking for the answer on web.
3. Despite huge change in American food industry in past 30 years, 76% say that they cook most of their meals at home. With over 115 million people in the US watching cooking shows on a regular basis, cooking related materials are on is highest pic of demand in the history. Only last year, there’ve been 60 million cook books sold in the US, what made to $1,3 billion market. Last time this industry experienced a dramatic change was more than 20 years ago with a wide spread of recipe web sties, online cooking videos and courses making publicly accessible millions of recipes. Since then nothing really changed the way people get cooking help online. And despite this huge technological advantage most of home cooks still struggle to receive desired support with their cooking related activities.
4. The other two options I had, was to call a friend who is likely had no idea about preparation of quinoa or post on a cooking forum and wait till tomorrow, and if I’ll be lucky will get a quality response…
5. But what if there was some one who could help with these problems
6. And that someone was a culinary professional, or even a professional chef!? And was always available when I need him
7. And made this so easy and joyful
