Kid Chef: The Foodie Kids Cookbook: Healthy Recipes and Culinary Skills for the New Cook in the Kitchen

by Melina Hammer, Bryant Terry (Foreword by)

Overview

Finally, A Cookbook for Kids Who Seriously Love To Cook

Aspiring young chefs will love the fun, easy-to-follow instructions in this kids' cookbook that's part cooking school and part cookbook. First, kid chefs enroll in culinary school and learn the skills they'll need to excel in the kitchen, from sharpening their knife skills to prepping ingredients. Then they'll be ready to set up shop and cook a range of delicious-and nutritious-recipes that are sure to please parents, too.

Packed with beautiful full-color photography and cooking fun facts, Kid Chef trains young chefs to whip up delicious dishes like a pro, with:

• 75+ HEALTHY RECIPES: From small bites to impress-your-family meals like Potato-Gruyère Tart to simple-and totally tempting-desserts like Chocolate-Cherry Bark
• KITCHEN BASICS: Kids learn how to stock their pantry, create a grocery list, handle a knife safely and effectively, and safely use the stove
• RECIPE TUTORIALS: Easy-to-follow recipe tutorials help kids put the basics they learn into action-from making garlic bread, salsa fresca, and more!

Whether you're cooking with kids or empowering your child to cook family meals on their own, Kid Chef will give them the tools they need to succeed in the kitchen.
