COOKING FOR KIDS WITH ALLERGIES |
 
I was curled up on the floor in a fetal position, sobbing when I first received the news that my young son was allergic to a long list of foods: eggs, soy, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts, and milk. And I was a dietitian! I will never forget the overwhelming news of this diagnosis. I knew it would affect everyday life with repercussions in social, school and personal circles. It's been 17 years since that day. My son is off to college in the fall and his list of allergies has dwindled to just two: peanuts and tree nuts. I have learned to prepare food within the confines of his allergies. I have learned to read labels, to ask the right questions when dining out, and to handle parties, sleep-overs, family gatherings, and holidays. And I've taught him to do the same.
At Marcel’s, we’ve heard from many of you in the same situation. We want to gather together, to share what we’ve learned, to learn from each other and to expand our repertoire of ‘go to’ recipes.
Please join me for

Spend an afternoon in the kitchen to step up your skills and
learn the secrets behind building layers of flavor.
Friday, February 17th 11:00 am - 1:30 pm
Building flavors one upon the other gives dishes variety and depth. Consider the quality of sauces and stocks - flavor layering makes all the difference. Balancing flavors by adding complementary ingredients at different stages of a recipe brings out the unique qualities and contributions of each ingredient.
