Jamie’s Ministry of Food is set to launch a five-week online cooking program exclusively to Isaac region residents from their home kitchens in October.
Open to residents aged 12 and above who are living and working in Isaac’s 17 unique communities will learn how to make meals from scratch.
Acting Mayor Kelly Vea Vea said Isaac Regional Council is proud to offer this world-class course to residents to help develop and sharpen their cooking skills.
“With funding contribution from the Queensland Government and with the support of Health and Wellbeing Queensland, Jamie’s Ministry of Food is committed to improving the nutritional education and cooking skills for locals and priority groups,” Cr Vea Vea said.
“Thank you to The Good Foundation and Jamie’s Ministry for Food in providing this prime opportunity to help teach residents how to bring the best flavours out of fresh ingredients and how to meal plan on a budget, so food goes further.
“We are a region that feeds, powers and builds communities and this program exemplifies Isaac’s mission.”
The Good Foundation CEO Siobhan Boyle said the program will teach participants the basics of food, nutrition and cooking, as well as some of Jamie’s special tips and tricks.
“Isaac locals will learn how to make meals from scratch, by baking, grilling, sautéing, boiling and roasting fresh ingredients,” Ms Boyle said.
“The program equips people with skills that make it simpler and quicker to cook healthy, delicious meals. Maintaining a healthy diet is always important and particularly during these difficult times.”
The program is open to Isaac region residents aged 12 and above every Monday from 5.30pm starting from 12 October to 9 November 2020.
