This is the second of a series of outdoor cooking courses for Girl Scout adult volunteers. A box oven is as magical as it sounds. Simply, a cardboard box covered in aluminum foil and heated with coals to bake just about anything. At this workshop participants will construct a box oven to take home and then learn how to successfully use it to bake in. The course will include hands-on experience preparing a breakfast entree, muffins, and dinner entree. In addition, coal safety, kitchen set-up and sanitation will be reviewed.
Cost of the course is $30 and will include supplies to make a box oven, food and take-home recipes. Participants will be responsible to source and bring their own cardboard box and cooking rack.
