Cooking Around the World
Instructor:
Melissa Bryant
Description:
Grab your passport, appetite, and adventurous spirit as we travel the world exploring various countries, cultures, and cuisines. From sushi making in Japan to tapas in Spain and many more between… Students will learn the basics of cooking as they “travel” to a country or region and explore its peoples, cultures, and foods. We will learn meal planning and preparation, proper measuring/safety/equipment, cooking to a recipe, and clean-up. Perhaps the most fun of all – students will get to enjoy tasting various foods from around the globe!
