Jr Chef Elite students embark on a 5 month culinary journey with detailed instruction and plenty of support along the way. The first Saturday of each month a Mentor Chef will share a technique with the students they are expected to master by month's end. The students reach this objective by cooking a meal at home once a week, following recipes that will be forwarded by Chef Karla. Students are required to blog their experience by taking pictures of their individual dishes and writing comments which are posted on the Jr Chef Central website allowing others to follow their progress from month-to-month.
Over the course of their journey, they will be invited to attend and/or participate in many activities designed to further develop their presentation skills: from speaking with ease in fron of a television camera and interacting with an audience while preparing a dish: to helping teach other kids the basics they have learned through the Jr. Chef program.
Teaching kids to make healthier lifestyle choices for themselves and, by extension, their families; while focusing on the common denominator of food to bridge cultural, social and economic divides among young people.
