Maurius Popp of Nuvrei Pastries could teach your child how to make home made ice cream! That pretty much defines 'win win' if you ask me. He'll be at the Portland Farmers Market on July 26th as part of the Kids Cook at the Market program. Here's more info about the program, which goes through August, as well as registration for the classes.
How would you like to be served strawberry and hazelnut crepes with hand-whipped cream from a Cory Schreiber-trained chef in your own home? It can happen! This summer from June through August, Kids Cook at the Market will bring Portland's premier chefs to the Market to share their skills with children between the ages of seven and eleven.
Chefs including Cory Schreiber, founder of Wildwood and now Oregon's Farm to Schools Program coordinator; Peter Schuh of Giorgio's Restaurant; Karen Lasher of Around the Table; Maurius Popp of Nuvrei; Piper Davis of Grand Central Baking; and Heidi Boyce, founder of Peanut Butter & Ellie's will introduce kids to the delights of the Market and the fun of cooking. Classes include a guided market tour, the chance to meet farmers, hands-on instruction, and recipes to take home so children can share what they learned with their family.
Since class size is limited, advance registration and payment are required. The cost is $15 per class/per student. For a list of classes and to download a registration form, see www.portlandfarmersmarket.org/kids_cook.htm.
