Cute character bentos lesson at Harlem elementary school! Teaching kids healthy food, cooking

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

** La Carmina’s CUTE YUMMY TIME cookbook, inspired by Japanese character bento decoration, is now in major bookstores and available online! Visit http://www.lacarmina.com/books.php for more information and to order.***

NHK, Japan’s national public broadcaster, shot a 20 minute TV documentary about character bentos that focused on my work and recipe book, Cute Yummy Time.

In one segment, I taught Harlem students how to make healthy, cute bentos. It was a success — the children loved it and ate vegetables that they’d never tried before! Here’s a slideshow of the action.

The New York Wave episode about cute bento boxes will air this February on NHK; Ill be sure to let you know the exact time and put up segments on YouTube (please subscribe so you wont miss out).
