Our Philosophy
At Miso Cute we have a very Simple Philosophy.
We use all organic, whole ingredients (meaning food in its most natural state): lots of organic fruit and vegetables. Organic, mostly raw dairy products. Natural sweeteners such as honey, maple syrup and non refined brown sugar, and locally raised meats, grass fed butter, coconut oil, free range eggs, fresh from the farm, spelt and whole wheat flours, oats, etc.
What we DO NOT use: processed foods, refined grains such as white flour, refined sweeteners such as sugar, any form of corn syrup, cane juice, or the artificial stuff like Splenda. Nothing out of a box, can, bag, bottle or package that has more than 5 ingredients listed on the label.
Does your child have a food allergy or special diet? The course menu will be adjusted to your child’s needs.
Beyond what you already know about healthy food, other important points you should know about our classes:
- We talk about foods to eat vs foods to avoid
- The kids will work on at least one savory and one sweet recipe per course
- Amazing kits from Kuhn Rikon, which the kids get to keep and bring whenever they join the course again
- We make everything from scratch. For example, if we make pizza, we make the dough AND the sauce, all on our own!
- The kids take the food they’ve made home with them, to share with the rest of the family
- We talk about safety in the kitchen, and particularly knife safety
- The kids learn what vitamins each ingredient has and what they are good for
- Lots of secret cooking tips and tricks
- How to deal with picky eaters, and how to avoid fighting about what your child eats
- All the recipes we work on during the course
