Do you wish you cooked more but don't know where to start? I wrote THE SECRET OF COOKING for anyone who needs ideas for how to cook when you are tired/stressed/alone/have terrible knife skills/all of the above. Here are the covers! (@wwnorton & @4thEstateBooks)

The charity @tastedfeed offer early educators and teachers support, training and resources to deliver a range of simple taste education lessons for children. Was brilliant to see the team’s work firsthand on a visit to the amazing Archfield House Nursery and Preschool in Bristol

@KitchenBee You are most welcome 😊 With the current challenges around children’s oral health and tooth decay the ability to drink plain water is more important than ever!

🧵1/2 This is such an important topic - many children & young people do not like plain water and it tastes different depending on supply - with this inconsistency being problematical for some. SO many benefits to liking and drinking enough water including healthy teeth

How does water taste to you? We are going to create new @tastedfeed lessons, helping children develop a preference for plain water (+informing why clean water matters/how devastating it is to be without it). If anyone here has learned ways to enjoy water more, do tell me...

A few things tried over the years in role as occupational therapist: Different temperatures including adding ice in fun shapes; filtering & involving children in process; drinking through and in/out of different cups/straws (including curly); sucking ice cubes/plain water ice pop

This is just to say thank you again to everyone who has cooked from THE SECRET OF COOKING. It’s a third off at Amazon U.K. until dec 1st. But know I would be every bit as delighted if you got it from one of the great independent booksellers who have supported it. Or a library.

@KitchenBee @LucastaHonoria @tastedfeed The girl fills bottles with water at home when she knows we're going to Wales. She loves the taste of our hard water and really dislikes the taste of soft water. I agree. Also always fill up any spare bottles in the car when we drive through Malvern - the very best tasting water.

@KitchenBee @Bookishcrick @ToppingsBath Was lucky to pick one up in a charity shop for £2.50. It's brilliant. After cooking for 45 years I learned many new ideas. Read cover to cover, bought an instant pot, discarded unused pressure and slow cookers. (charity shops) and am enthused by cooking all over again

@KitchenBee @tastedfeed To answer the question, some water tastes dusty to me. And some water tastes "sweet." Not like it has sugar in it, but by analogy it seems sweet. I don't know if kids talk about tastes this way, but I feel like I taste water on the back of my tongue more than on the front/sides.

@KitchenBee @tastedfeed I enjoy the delicious tap water here where I live in Cumbria far more than the hard scummy stuff that came through the pipes in my native Lincolnshire. I also realise that’s not really a solution to the issue!

@KitchenBee @tastedfeed A good filter makes a big difference. I drink a lot of filtered tap water, but dislike the faint chemical tang if straight from the tap. And it tastes different in different parts of the country; I found north London’s more palatable than Cambridge’s. Hardness, perhaps?

@TheWatchfulCook @tastedfeed I'm so glad you think so too. No matter how many times I watch it, I feel almost surprised by the suddenness of her joy at the end.

P.S. Here is a chance to see someone's tastes changing before your very eyes, because a teacher helped her find her own courage to try. I know we are all primed to give up on videos after 10 seconds these days. But the magic here happens around 40 seconds in... @tastedfeed

“If any food were a perfect candidate for changing our preferences, it’s beans,” @KitchenBee says. On this episode of The Opinions, she makes the case that these tiny legumes could help save the planet. Listen: nyti.ms/3Vc5Oca

@The_Latin_Tutor @jasorourke @washingborough @tastedfeed @nytopinion The more years I've spent with TastEd, the more I see that children's unfamiliarity w/ food goes much further than this. 3 is still young. But we've encountered 11 year-olds who have never tried a fresh tomato. This is why school is such a powerful opportunity to change tastes
