The Rising of the Dough: Science in Cooking

Why is some pizza dough flat while another has a great chewy crust?

How does sugar change from granules to a brittle or a caramel sauce?

Join us and learn about the science behind how some of your favorite foods are made and how ingredients chemically interact to give us the foods we love to eat. This is a super fun class that is part chemistry and part cooking. This hands-on class is great for kids who are curious, love to learn, and have an interest in cooking and helping in the kitchen.

Due to safety and hygiene concerns, close-toed shoes are required, and hair must be pulled back or under a cap.
