Kids’ Kitchen: Good Food Made Easy Amanda Grant
Mitchell Beazley
Kids’ Kitchen is a kids’ cookbook that tells the full story of food – from how it grows and is produced to how to make the most of it in the kitchen. Every one of the 50 recipes in the book is also a vehicle for teaching a cooking technique or method – from how to grill, to how to whisk, to how to make classics such as chips, mash, bread and ice-cream. Perfect for parents to begin to teach kids as young as 3, Kids’ Kitchen is also written simply enough for 11-year-olds to read. All your kids’ favourite foods are included, from fishcakes to kebabs, pancakes to fairy cakes.
Kid’s Kitchen is a truly modern kids’ cookbook, encouraging a passion for where food comes from as well as for how to cook with it. Each recipe teaches a basic cooking method or technique – from simple grilling or baking to whisking or blending to making batter or ice-cream. It features 50 recipes in all that kids will love to make and if executed well both kids and adults should love to eat..
Each recipe in this book teaches a different technique or cooking method. Through a recipe for pancakes kids will learn how to make batter; through a recipe for meringues they’ll find out how to whisk eggs; through a recipe for fruit tart they’ll discover how to make pastry; and through a recipe for curry they’ll try out dry-frying spices. All the classic methods of cooking are taught too – from grilling and frying to roasting and baking. Recipes are divided into sections called From the Sea, From the Mill, From the Garden, From the Farm, From Afar and From the Wilds, to help kids understand the origins of food from an early age.
