In this interactive cooking class, kids will discover how science is the secret ingredient to delicious dishes! From the chemistry of baking to the biology of fermentation, they'll explore how ingredients interact and what makes certain recipes work. They'll learn how heat, temperature, and chemical reactions shape the food we eat – from why pancakes rise to how chocolate melts just right.
