raddish kids cooking club

I signed J and K up for a monthly cooking club, to say they love it is the understatement of the year. This program is AMAZING! I am very impressed with how easy the instructions are to follow. They teach you the right culinary techniques, food safety and much more. Each month you will receive new recipes and tools. Cooking is such an important skill to have. It inspires confidence, independence and an appreciation of food. If you have picky eaters, this would be so great for them. They will be so excited to eat what they have cooked themselves! I don't have this problem with my kids, but I know so many kids that do. My favorite part was taking a night off of cooking and cleaning up!

The first recipe that we made from our kit were the Dumplings. I had a great time watching them work together. They are both so different in how they approached the class. Kyler needed everything perfect. He was even telling me that we needed a MEDIUM sized bowl that had polka dots because thats what was in the picture. HAHAHA! So exact in how he takes on the world. Jocelyn on the other hand is not as precise. She is okay with adding a little of her own flare. She added a little to much honey to the sauce and was totally fine. Kai wanted to start over. They added hot sauce instead. Like I said, very different approaches, but so fun to see them learn and grow.

While cooking they learned a valuable lesson on pan heat. The first batch was a little dark. Haha! They were a little frustrated, because it is SO much work to make and stuff those dumplings to have them burn. They turned down the heat and everything cooked up just fine after that. Don't worry, they still ate the burnt ones. My kids don't like to waste food!
