“We all eat, and it would be a sad waste of opportunity to eat badly.” -Anna Thomas
Human beings are active. We like to dance, sing, swim, listen to music, create art and our favorite, cook. What’s better than the scent of fresh garlic cloves browning in fragrant olive oil or the feeling of freshly-picked basil whispering around your nose? Cooking and eating is the ultimate human satisfaction. An even greater gratification is having your children cook that meal for you. We’re not talking PB&Js, we’re talking culinary masterpieces that tickle your taste buds and will instill a new found pride in your child and their culinary capabilities.
The world has recently changed on us, especially for our children. Our usual activities have been put on hold, but with this change we are given the opportunity to expand our horizons, find new creative outlets and explore a passion that we may not have had time to do before.
Hugh’s Culinary is dedicated to helping expand your child’s culinary talents as we strive to encourage free expression using an array of fresh ingredients. Our trained culinary staff is committed to educating each young chef about kitchen safety and the dangers of cross-contamination. Do you know what a serrated edge is? Don’t worry if you don’t because our staff will show you! Homemade pasta, a whole roasted chicken and white chocolate cherry bark are some of the dishes that your children will master. We will discuss the benefits of using fresh and local ingredients, as well as how to incorporate more vegetables into everyday dishes. The campers will learn hands-on how to filet fresh-caught fish and how to identify common varieties of Florida fish, shellfish and the many cuts of beef, pork and poultry.
Here at Hugh’s Culinary Kids’ Camp we place an emphasis on manners and appreciation towards one another and to our planet. We believe in teaching our campers that respect for one another and our earthly resources are the makings of a true master chef. Call us today to find out more, we would be honored to have your children!
