Calling
all future chefs, food lovers and critics!
21
Acres, in partnership with the Venturing Program of the Boy Scouts of America
invites all interested young men and women ages 14-21 to participate in our
newest sustainable cooking basics series. If you have ever wondered how to
slice an onion without crying, transform your grains into mouthwatering
delicacies, or make the world’s fluffiest pancakes, then this class is for you!
In
a series of five two-hour classes, participants will learn the culinary basics,
including knife skills, soups & stocks, salads, grains, and proteins. All
classes will also incorporate lessons in sustainability, including how to eat
in season, locate local food, compost, and create weekly meal plans. At the end
of each class, students will sit down and share a scrumptious light meal
together.
Instructor:
Chef Brianna Paris first knew she wanted to cook for a living after taking the
culinary arts program at Bothell High School. Upon graduation, she enrolled at
Le Cordon Bleu in Seattle and quickly developed a passion to please others
through food. She now works at 21 Acres where she gets to do what she loves
everyday.
