Edible Schoolyard NYC educators will describe our approach to teaching cooking–making lessons hands-on and engaging for all students. We will talk generally about how we use culinary lessons to celebrate the cultural diversity of New York City and specifically about the rich history and  diversity of Hispanic/Latinx cultures in the United States. We will also discuss our specific strategies for cooking safely with students and will highlight the following healthy, plant-based Hispanic/Latinx recipes: Baleadas, Arroz con Gandules, Esquites, Empanadas and Sancocho. Please note that registration is limited to NYCPS employees, and please register using your @schools.nyc.gov email.
