2ND HOUR CLASSES
Cooking with Kristina - $35 (7th-12th)
Teacher - Kristina Phelps
This will be a different take on the past cooking classes Miss Kristina has been known for with a little more science involved. We will be chemists in the kitchen. The class will be based on this book - Culinary Reactions
When you're cooking, you're a chemist! Every time you follow or modify a recipe, you are experimenting with acids and bases, emulsions and suspensions, gels and foams. In your kitchen you denature proteins, crystallize compounds, react enzymes with substrates, and nurture desired microbial life while suppressing harmful bacteria and fungi. And unlike in a laboratory, you can eat your experiments to verify your hypotheses.
