Cooking class for children 6-9 years old
13:00-14:00
How can you make a simple salad exciting? Is it possible to make a delicious soft drink from the vegetation of the garden?
Children aged 6-9 are offered an hour-long cooking class where they can learn to make an exciting salad and homemade soda from the harvest outside the Nordic House. Árni Ólafur Jónsson, chef and owner of MATR, the café at the Nordic House, guides the children and uses ingredients that are easy to grow in Iceland. Participants can take home the salad dressing that they prepare.
Free admission but limited space available. Tickets are available here. The cooking class is in Icelandic.
The cooking course is held in connection with the Children’s Harvest Festival at the Nordic House on Sunday 6th September at 12-16. The harvest is the result of the project Sow, See, and Sample. More information on the project here.
The harvest at the Nordic House is mostly grown from seeds from NordGen, a joint Nordic gene bank that preserves the seeds of over 33,000 species of plants that thrive in the Nordic countries. By preserving the seeds and using them, we are safeguarding biological diversity and at the same time promoting action against climate change.
