A group of high school students attended a Workshop on Adulting 101 hosted by Clark County 4-H intern featuring knife safety, hand washing and reading a recipe.

Teen Cuisine Curriculum was introduced to all student of the workshop. We split them into teams where they worked together to prepare several recipes that included.

Team 1: Colorful Coleslaw, learning grating, chopping, and peeling.

Team 2: Chicken Nuggets, learning food safety, knife safety, using a meat thermometer, and keeping your work area free from cross contamination.

Team 3: Oven Baked French Fries, washing potatoes, using a chef’s knife, pre-heating the oven and sanitizing your area.

As they came together to share what they had prepared, they had these quotes:

  “l learned to make nuggets”

 “I learned to cook French fries, so they aren’t limp like noodle fries”

“I learned to prepare a meal, which included knife skills, food safety and to pre-pare and cook certain vegetables.

They are looking forward to the next “ Adulting 101 Workshop”.
