This class is taught in English.
Students will build life skills as they learn about kitchen equipment and techniques. They will learn food safety in handling some ingredients and when working appliances. They will learn the science behind yeast and other ingredients and why they react the way that they do within foods. Students in this class will learn how to make delicious breakfast/brunch pastries, appetizers, salads, entrees and desserts. They will learn the history behind some of their favorite foods and even foods they may have never heard of. We will have a little history lesson as we discuss where some foods come from.
I have been cooking with my mother, grandmother and aunts since I was 8 years old. Many of our family recipes have been published in cook books. I hold a Master's degree in Special Education and have over 15 years experience working with learners who are neurodivergent.
