Get ready to cook, experiment and explore! Join us on a flavorful journey across the United States while uncovering the science behind what happens in the kitchen.
Each day highlights a different U.S. region — Northeast, South, Midwest, Southwest and West Coast — through its unique foods, cultural traditions and local ingredients.
As campers prepare regional dishes, they’ll dive into daily food science concepts like chemical reactions, states of matter, heat transfer, fermentation, emulsions and nutrition.
How does heat change food? What makes flavors blend? Campers conduct fun experiments, make observations and connect science concepts directly to the recipes they create.
Designed for curious cooks of all experience levels, this camp blends culture, chemistry and creativity into an engaging learning experience! By week’s end, campers will not only taste their way across the country but also gain a deeper understanding of the science that makes cooking work — one delicious discovery at a time!
