Raising Independent Kids

In this episode, Toria and Julian Frederick of the Step Stool Chef share what it’s like when the kiddo is the head chef (and the parent is the sous chef). We also talk about the role that cooking plays in building independent, self-sufficient kids. And in our second segment, Wendy McGowan, a baker and baking instructor in Gilbert, Ariz., tells us the proper way to crack an egg, how to check that it’s safe and how to remove the bits of shell that inevitably get in the bowl.
