Inspiring the Next Generation of Cooks

Here’s a cool site designed with kids in mind. America’s Test Kitchen Kids website, www.ATKkids.com. The new, free site is designed to inspire excitement and experimentation in the kitchen for kids ages 8 to 13, and features kid-tested and kid-approved recipes, experiments, fun quizzes and trivia. Recipes include everything from homemade rainbow sprinkles to the best Sheet Pan Pizza. Experiments on the site help answer important questions like “Why does popcorn pop?” and “How does cheese melt?”  The site also includes food-focused video content in which a small group of young adults, ages 14 to 18, help engage and teach younger kids—through recipes, experiments, and kitchen techniques. ATK relies on over 2,000 young home cooks to test recipes and activities at home. Parents can enroll their children on https://www.americastestkitchen.com/kids_recipe_testing so they can test in their own kitchens.
