Cooking 101

We are starting a cooking section in homeschool. I think it's a great way for the kids to learn independence, and about nutrition, in addition to actually cooking. 

On Friday, DD1 learned some blender basics. We covered speeds, proper order to adding foods so the blade doesn't jam or break, and a little on nutrition. 


Tomorrow may be Sunday, but we will have another cooking lesson. I am hoping to introduce using a sharp knife, and safety basics. We plan to make home made french fries, baked potatoes, and bacon. It looks like starches, and fats will be first! LOL. 

Watch for pictures soon, I plan to document this visually as well!
