Canning at IKEA!

Carolyn: Cooking with kids at IKEA!

We’ll be filming the first episode of our web series, “Cooking with kids at IKEA” 10:30-11:15 a.m. June 27, where we will capture the time-honored tradition of canning and sharing canning comfort stories.

Canning aficionado and famed garden whisperer Amy Pennington, author of Urban Pantry and host of KCTS Check, Please!, will join local journalist and mom blogger Carolyn Ossorio, along with her children, in IKEA’s demo kitchen for a FREE canning event.

All are welcome as we explore the lost art of giving simple gifts like sweet strawberry jam or brandied cherries infused with aromatics for a mean martini!

Amy and Carolyn with show tips on fruit and veggie preparation, designing personal jar labels, the art of repurposing brown bags into unique gift packages complete with a recipe tag.

Event is from 10:30am - 11:15am
