On April 17, New York Edge hosted the 'Battle of the Baskets' cooking competition, aimed at elementary and middle school students from disadvantaged backgrounds. This annual event encourages participants to utilize mystery ingredients to create dishes while learning essential life skills and healthy cooking practices. Judged by culinary professionals, the competition allows students to showcase their creativity in a fun environment, emphasizing the importance of food as a universal language. It highlights how New York Edge’s programs support students beyond academics and foster invaluable life skills.
The purpose of Food Explorers is to teach students to cook with portable equipment and how to make healthy food choices.
Food is a universal language. Regardless of where they're from, what their cultural backgrounds are, what their families do, what their socioeconomic status is - food is a language.
