A Pinch of Salt is proud to offer various hands-on cooking activities for children.  Teaching children to eat healthy, home cooked meals encourages them to try new ingredients and opens their palate to new flavors.  It also encourages children to feel comfortable and safe in the kitchen, this prevents them from feeling intimidated later on as adults.  Moreover, it helps them form a healthy relationship with food which will likely stay with them during adulthood. Our hands-on cooking classes get children excited about cooking and that's definitely a step in the right direction!  Speaking of which, we are proud to announce that Raquel was recently recognized for her passion for teaching at City Harvest.  Raquel was invited to the White House South Lawn to be a part of Mrs. Obama's Let's Move! campaign, the goal is to end childhood obesity by 2015.  Raquel was among chefs Anne Burrell, Marcus Samuelsson, Aaron McCargo, Daniel Boulud, Carla Hall, Tom Colicchio, Michael Laiskonis, Cat Cora, Lydia Bastianich and Art Smith.  Please click our blog to see the progress we have made.  For photos visit Raquel Rivera-Pablo on Facebook!
