Description

Here's a cookbook that offers easy-to-follow recipes, while teaching youngsters about food and food customs from around the globe. Twelve chapters -- each focusing on a different country or region -- introduce readers to the culinary history of different lands and the eating habits of people from a range of cultures. "Utensil ratings" indicate each recipe's level of difficulty. What's more, chapters include tips for serving food at parties, activities to use with friends or in the classroom, and foreign language expressions for inviting folks to eat. Whimsical illustrations throughout provide wit and intrigue for young chefs. Recipes are from Africa, China, Russia, Mexico, Vietnam, the Middle East, the Carribbean, France, Germany, India, Italy and Japan.
