Ok great, I’ve learned about what food is available during our seasons & how to purchase it, but now how do I safely prepare it for consumption? How can I make local food delicious & have it still be nutritious? At N.C. Cooperative Extension, Mecklenburg County Center, we have cooking demos at our local farmers markets & create dishes featuring local food that inspire both producers & consumers. In this lunch & learn session, participants will learn ways on how to find inspiration to incorporate local foods into your existing diet, to prepare these local foods in delicious & nutritious ways, and basic food safety. This session will also feature a food demonstration of a seasonal ingredient. This session is ideal for anyone interested in tapping into their creativity in the kitchen.
Zoom link will be provided upon registration.
