Please include a name and phone number where you can be reached. For more information, call staff writer Jim Baker at 832-7173 or copy editor Karrey Britt at 832-7190.

Web site offers lessons for young, budding chefs

Budding chefs — or even children who like to make peanut butter sandwiches — might enjoy the Culinary Institute for America Kids’ Web site at www.ciakids.com.

Children can learn the basics about kitchen safety, cooking terms, nutrition and beginning a career. Handy pop-ups demonstrate techniques such as skinning an onion and identifying equipment.
