Raising A Junior Chefby Michael Carton Director of Education and Outreach, WQPT Quad Cities PBSWho doesn’t love a grilledcheese sandwich and a hot bowlof tomato soup on a cold winterday? Does it get much better thanthat? Yes! I can tell you definitivelythat there’s something even betterthan cracking open a can of theiconic red and white label soupand peeling slices of cheese fromtheir individually-wrapped plasticholders!This meal is a go-to inmy kitchen when I’m looking forsomething quick and easy towarm me up, but I recently learnedthere’s a way to take it to the nextlevel. My son received a copyof America’s Test Kitchen’s TheComplete Cookbook for YoungChefs for hisbirthday. Ididn’t expecthim to lovethe book asmuch as hedid, but it wasall he couldtalk about forweeks!After reading through allthe different recipes, he wouldn’tstop talking about the homemade “Creamy Dreamy TomatoSoup.” He seemed genuinelyamazed that tomato soup couldcome from something other thana can!After hearing about the“Creamy Dreamy Tomato Soup”recipe for the 100th time, my wifesuggested we make it together.The cookbook also has a recipefor a grilled cheese sandwich, sowe decided to make the entiremeal. We wrote down all theingredients we’dneed, checkedthe pantry to seewhat we alreadyhad, searchedGoogle to learnwhat a shallotlooks like, andwent to our localHyVee to buy theingredients westill needed.I think thiswas the first timein my son’s life thathe – personally– had a purposefor shopping atthe grocery store. He’s groceryshopped with me countlesstimes, but this was the first timehe knew the entire list -and whateverything on the list would beused for. He was beyond excited.I had no idea someone could beso thrilled to find a can of dicedtomatoes!When we returned home,we started cooking right away.In my head, I thought we weregoing to just make some soupand a couple sandwiches - butthis experience provided us achance talk about kitchen safety,using a blender, melting butterin the microwave, and so muchmore! We had a blast cookingand talking with one another!When our meal wasfinished, we sat down together atthe kitchen table to enjoy the fruitsof our labor – and it was great!Maybe it was the experience ofcooking the meal together thatdid it, but it was easily the BESTgrilled cheese and tomato soupI’d ever tried.We spent the time eatingour dinner discussing the processof making our meal. We couldtaste all the different ingredientsthat we put into the soup – andwe savored it all. We even tookthe time to observe how theshredded cheese melted insidethe buttered bread.This was such a positiveexperience for me and my sonthat we’re already planningto try out other recipes in hiscookbook. When we run out ofrecipes in that book, we’ll take alook at America’s Test Kitchen’sbaking cookbook for kids, theirpodcast for kids (called MysteryRecipe), and their “Young Chef’sClub.” We’ll continue exploringnew ways to improve our favoritefoods – while enjoying somequality bonding time as we cookin our kitchen!QC Family Focus I November/December 2020 7
