At the High School for Media and Communications, students are cooking up more than just great food—they’re building confidence, learning new skills, and sharing delicious creations together. The Cooking Club offers a space to learn to make their favorite foods, improve their culinary skills, and of course, enjoy the results of their hard work!

 

Since the club kicked off, students have tried their hands at making a variety of tasty treats, from refreshing smoothies and parfaits to sweet brownies and warm cinnamon rolls. Each session brings new flavors and techniques. In one meeting, students learned to create guacamole, perfecting the balance of avocado, lime, and other condiments to make this crowd-favorite dip. Another time, they prepared quesadillas, learning how to melt the cheese to perfection in a crisp, golden tortilla.

 

 

More than just a place to cook, the club is about connection and growth. Students support each other in learning new skills and gain confidence in the kitchen. They’re discovering that cooking isn’t just about following recipes – it’s a creative outlet and a way to share their efforts with friends.

 

 

As the semester continues, there’s plenty more on the menu for the Cooking Club. Whether it’s a complex dish or a simple snack, students are excited to keep exploring the world of food together!
