More people than ever before are cooking and eating gluten free, either for health or personal reasons. During this informative demonstration, Chef Stevens will share helpful cooking tips, and prepare two of his signature gluten-free dishes: chicken and broccoli with gluten-free pasta, and a classic lemon curd dessert with fresh berries. He also will demonstrate how to make a gluten-free roux that can be used to thicken soups, sauces and gravies.

Founded by Stevens in 2011, Chef on Demand shops for all ingredients and prepares customizable gourmet meals and home-style dinners from clients’ home kitchens. Delivery also is available. All menu items are born from the creative mind of Stevens, a classically trained chef with more than 19 years of culinary experience. The service is available seven days a week to residents throughout Bergen County.

During a free initial consultation, Stevens determines each customer’s food likes and dislikes, and identifies any food allergies or special dietary requests. A customized menu plan is created for each client, including snacks. Detailed reheating instructions are provided, and customers can choose from daily, weekly, bi-weekly or monthly meal plan options. Additional services include catering for small dinner parties and barbecues, personal food shopping, private in-home cooking classes and cooking parties.
