Kids in the Kitchen – Taste of Italy – 5 Day Camp

This 5-day camp is designed for kids 8-12 years old.

MONDAY, August 19th to FRIDAY, August 23rd 

From 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, Everyday

Join Chef Hend Yahya and spend a week cooking and eating your way through Italy! We’ll start off this week-long cooking camp making pasta and end it with a pizza party, making a lot of Italian favorites in between.  Each class will give students instruction and practice with various skills and techniques such as using knives correctly to slice, dice and chiffonade; using the stove to simmer & sauté; using a scale to create perfect pasta dough – and how to roll, cut and fill that dough. Additionally, students will learn the advantages of planning ahead for cooking success!
