Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 3 Up—A comprehensive first cookbook for novices. Step-by-step instructions easily spell out how to make breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as how to prepare vegetables, snacks, and desserts. Standard favorites, such as pancakes, biscuits, apple crisp, pasta, and vanilla pudding, are just a few of the varied range of fare presented. This work features cheerful photos of young people creating foods that kids love to eat. The use of healthy ingredients adds further to the appeal. Colorful stickers and decorative recipe cards are another bonus. VERDICT Though there are plenty of cookbooks aimed at the younger set, this is a worthy addition to the profusion of similar titles.—Kathryn Diman, Bass Harbor Memorial Library, Bernard, ME

Review

"Of all the kids' cooking books that have crossed my threshold over the years, this is the one that seems to have struck gold. I usually hand kids' cookbooks to my daughter (she's 9 now) for a first opinion before looking at them myself; this one I never got back. Cooking Class, written by family-magazine editor and kids'-cooking specialist Deanna Cook, seems to know how to talk directly to kids (or at least bookish kids who are seriously motivated to feed themselves) with minimal interference from parents. Part of the appeal is that it's such an intensely visual book, full of colorful pages, punchy graphics and clear instructions. It's got peel-off labels for your homemade dressings (because even a kid independent enough to cook for herself is still a kid, and hence not immune to the charm of stickers). It's got pictures of other kids cooking by themselves. And now, our copy's got stains and sticky spots — sure signs of devotion no matter what the cook's age." — T. Susan Chang, NPR

"Spiral-bound, with glossy, easy-to-clean covers, these cookbooks are bright and colorful, with recipes that range in difficulty from very easy (mug cake, salad dressing) to more complicated (crepes, spring rolls). They are perfect for children who want a thorough introduction to the kitchen, including basic rules for safety, vocabulary, setting a table and — you’re going to love this, parents — cleaning up. They are written for children ages 8 to 12, but again, younger ones will find something for them here, too." — New York Times

"Cooking Class is a fantastic how-to-cook book for kids. They’ll get an overview of basic cooking skills, learn kitchen vocabulary, and even learn how to set a table. The book includes press-out bonus material like recipe cards, table discussion cards, place cards, and four sheets of stickers. Includes recipes for fruit roll-ups, popcorn chicken, and mashed potato clouds." — Book Riot

“An appealing blend of fun techniques (flowers made of fruit, anyone?) and practical recipes (omelets, apple crisp) make former FamilyFun editor Deanna F. Cook’s new book, Cooking Class, a must-have for any budding chef. The recipe variations and open-ended projects let kids take their culinary creativity to the next level.” — FamilyFun

"There comes a time, kids, when you've got to expand your kitchen repertoire beyond mac 'n cheese, hot dogs, and PBJ. French Toast on a Stick, Quiche Cupcakes, Tiny Tomato Toast, and Lettuce Roll-Ups are so much more interesting and healthy, especially when you've made them all by yourself. No matter what you want to cook, this book has you covered, with helpful photos, easy-to-follow instructions, and quirky twists on recipes." — Foreword Reviews

"For any parent who is in full 'how do I start' shrug mode, wondering how to bring their kid into the kitchen — pick this up: a few recipes in, the goal will be accomplished." — Katie Workman, author of The Mom 100 Cookbook, Creator of themom100.com blog

"A creative, hands-on collection of fun, kid-friendly recipes, with easy step-by-step directions and inspiring photos." — Ann Hallock, Editor-in-Chief, FamilyFun magazine

"This book teaches kids that the art and pleasure of cooking isn't just about how to crack an egg or dice a tomato — it's about preparing and sharing tasty, healthful foods in creative ways." — Amanda Kingloff, author of Project Kid: 100 Ingenious Crafts for Family Fun

Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.

Chapter One: Welcome to Cooking Class!

Do you like to cook? Maybe you’ve helped your family in the kitchen with dinner or baked brownies for dessert with your friends. Or maybe you’re just hungry for a homemade snack. This book is filled with fun and easy recipes that teach kids how to cook. Each recipe was tested by kids just like you for ease (“Fast!” or “Took too long!”), taste (“Yum!” or “Yuck!”), and overall fun factor.

Before you put on your apron, take some time to read this introductory chapter all the way through. It has helpful tips for junior chefs, like what kitchen tools to have on hand and how to measure carefully. It also shows you how to properly use a paring knife and other ways to be safe in the kitchen. But most important, you’ll learn how to cook up some fun in the kitchen!

Lesson One: Review the Rules

Start good cooking habits from the get-go by following these basic kitchen rules. Ask an adult for permission to make a recipe. Ask for help, too, if you have questions along the way.

1. Wash your hands with warm water and soap before you handle food. Scrub well for 20 seconds, or as long as it takes to recite the alphabet.
2. Roll up long sleeves and wear an apron or smock (an oversize T-shirt will do the trick nicely). Tie back long hair to keep it away from food. You can even wear a bandanna or chef’s hat!
3. Read the recipe from start to finish before you begin. Follow the steps closely.
4. Put out all the ingredients from the “Here’s What You Need” list to be sure you have everything.
5. Measure carefully (see the tips in lesson 5).
6. Use a timer so you don’t burn or overcook anything.
7. Always use pot holders when touching hot pans and dishes.
8. Most important, clean up afterward!

Lesson Two: Get Your Kitchen in Order!

MAKE A RECIPE COLLECTION
Start with the recipes in this book — put a check mark next to each one you try. You can also create your own folder or recipe box for storing recipes from magazines and websites. Use the recipe cards in the back of the book to write down some favorite family recipes or ones that you come up with yourself.

CREATE A COOKING KIT
Find a box or clear plastic container and stock it with your own cooking tools. Label or decorate your container. (See the stickers in the back of the book.) You’ll want to start with: • measuring spoons & cups

whisk
paring knife
rolling pin
clean scissors
mixing spoon
spatula
tongs
pastry brush
melon baller
pizza cutter

SET UP A GOOD WORK SPACE

Clear off a kitchen countertop so you have plenty of room to cook. A kitchen table is a great place to prep food, too.
If the work space is too high for you to comfortably reach, find a sturdy stool to stand on.
Be sure the floor isn’t wet — you don’t want to slip and fall!

Lesson Three: Start with Good Ingredients

MAKE A LIST before you shop. This will save you time and money, and you won’t forget an important ingredient.

USE FRESH INGREDIENTS as much as possible. Whenever you can, choose organic fruits and veggies. They taste great, have more nutrients, and are better for the environment.

PICK YOUR OWN. If you’re lucky enough to have a garden, you can pick veggies for your recipes. If not, stop at your nearest farmers’ market to stock up. These markets usually also sell meats, cheeses, and eggs that are organic and/or local. During the winter, though, frozen vegetables often taste better and have more nutrients than fresh ones shipped from far away.

STORE YOUR PRODUCE properly until you use it, and clean it well before cooking. Rinse fruits and vegetables under cold water to remove any dirt. Use a scrub brush on hard items like carrots and potatoes to make washing them easier.

Best Cookbook for Kids I've Found!
Reviewed in the United States on March 30, 2015
Verified Purchase

A few years ago, I searched for a kids' cookbook that I could love and that my kids could enjoy and follow easily. I was so surprised by the variety of cookbooks and the poorly written directions they included. In particular, I remember looking at Paula Deen's cookbook for children. The small print, light type, and colored background... I wanted a better cookbook for my kids! For me, cookbooks are inspiring (even if I almost never follow a recipe exactly)! I ended up finding one that I loved-- Kids Cook!, a Williamson Kids Can book that is now back in print. But, there are no photographs in the cookbook. My kids love color and they are not drawn to that cookbook. On the other hand, a new cookbook arrived at our doorstep last week and my kids hovered over it--drinking in the recipes, excited to cook!

That cookbook is Cooking Class by Deanna F. Cook. A few years ago, Storey published two cookbooks for kids about sewing that I like: Sewing School and Sewing School 2. With this cookbook for kids, Storey followed the same format and editing style--which I loved back then and love again with this new cookbook.

Cooking Class is divided into seven sections that cover the basics, meals, snacks, and of course--dessert! The Basics section is what I have found lacking in most kids' cookbooks, but in this one, it is done well. Good tips, good pictures, and even a page on how to clean up! I like that they added two pages on how to fold a fancy napkins and setting the table. I have a feeling that our next holiday meal will have some beautifully folded napkins!

From there, the recipe sections begin. The recipes are divided into 1, 2, or 3 spoons. 1 spoon recipes can be made by kids themselves. 2 spoon recipes might need an older sibling or parent's help. 3 spoon recipes use sharp knives and the oven/stove, so an adult is most likely needed for kids under 10 or 11. My daughters are 9 and 11 and are uncomfortable with the oven and can turn on the gas stove, but usually prefer me to do that.

The recipes are easy to follow and have great pictures which give clear instructions. The reading level (because of the size of the type) is probably 3rd grade and above. I know that my first grade son can read most of the words in these directions, but the size of the type would be a stumbling block for him.

Our first recipe we tried from the cookbook was the grab and go granola bars. I was a little skeptical about how my kids would like them since they aren't baked, but my whole family ended up loving them! I think next time, though, I am going to try and mix the chocolate chips into the mixture and then press into the pan so that the chocolate chips are mixed throughout the bars and aren't just on top.

I suspect that within a few months every recipe in this cookbook will have been tried by my kids!

Aside from the recipes, the cookbook includes some fun stickers, place cards, and conversation questions for the dinner table. These are of high quality and my kids have enjoyed them all.

I think you get the idea... when choosing a great kids' cookbook, this one tops my list! (and has been added to my list of favorite cookbooks.)

Please note that I received a complimentary copy of this cookbook for review from Storey publishing.

Excellent well rounded cookbook for kids!!!
Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2020
Verified Purchase
Excellent cookbook for kids!!! It’s probably geared more for older kids, but very fun for my almost 5 year old who loves to help me in the kitchen and is very independent.

Some require help with the oven or appliances but others don’t - there’s a rating at the top of each recipe to show basically how hard it is and if you need help from an adult. Lots of pictures, simple ingredients, talks about kitchen rules, safety, kitchen vocabulary with pictures (like beat, chop, crush, grill, sauté, simmer, etc.) even teaches how to fold a “fancy napkin.” It includes blank recipe cards, place cards, game cards, stickers and labels. Recipes include breakfast, lunch, dinner, veggies, snacks, desserts. The recipes even make suggestions for substitution of ingredients which I like to help more with creativity and teach kids to use what you have on hand.

I also like that it is spiral bound so it lays open flat on the counter. I know that’s a small thing but that was something I was looking for before ordering. It’s a very well rounded book. I would definitely recommend it!!!

AWESOME cook book that emphasizes REAL food, not just sweets!
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2020

If you are looking for a gift for your little chef, I highly recommend this "Cooking Class" cookbook! My cooking kiddo loves it!

Some of the great features:
The recipes are not too complicated, so they are actually kid-friendly (unlike many other kids' books which have complicated recipes). I love that they include plenty of "real food" in this book -- so many kids' cookbooks have tons of sweet treat recipes and hardly any healthy recipes. The color photos and instructions are clear. The spiral bound book makes it easy to lay flat on the counter. The introductory chapter has a lot of how-to and safety tips for kids in the kitchen.

This is hands-down the best kids' cookbook that we have!

I love to cook, and my kids like to help as much as they can. We are always looking for ways to get them involved, and cooking independently. This book is excellent for this! Great easy recipes that kids can handle and love to eat are central to this book, and the extras like food tags and labels are a lot of fun for the kids and us adults as well. Definitely a great gift for the kids in your life, and for those who want to get their kids cooking and eating healthy, go for it!

fun recipes, great teaching tool

This book is a well thought out and easy to follow guide for young cooks in the kitchen. It has everything from cleaning, to proper tools and safety. The recipes range from simple to a little more complicated. The more complicated recipes suggest that an adult be there to oversee the project which is a great opportunity for collabarative work and teaching. It has interesting takes on old favorites. Putting french toast on skewers with fruit was a fresh idea for an old favorite. I recommend this for kids of all ages that want to learn kitchen skills and enjoy some creativity.
