Scratch Pot Luck

In today's world cooking by scratch is almost a lost art as it can be time consuming.  However, in some of the areas that our students will be living, there will not be grocery stores close by. They might not be able to buy box mixes or already prepared foods like what we can get here in North America.  Therefore, we have encouraged our students to try out cooking from scratch.  To some it is something they already do and to others there is a bit of a learning curve.  Some of us staff ladies had scratch cooking demonstrations at our houses.  Then last week our students enjoyed a week of cooking from scratch and we ended the week with a "Scratch Potluck".  There was all sorts of great food that showed up at our pot luck.
