Tomatoes are a Hit in the Muse Kitchen

Chef Leslie Joy is mixing up rich experiences in the MUSE Kitchen! She recently rehydrated left over Roma plum tomatoes and used them in a healthy pasta primavera dish for lunch. (Her secret to preserving the healthful enzymes? Dehydrate the veggies at 115 degrees.) She also spent a fun day in the kitchen with students making pizza dough. The children observed the yeast at work and had a chance to reflect on the phenomenon as they kneaded the dough. Later, as it rose, the group discussed different cooking techniques and varieties of tomatoes, then made their own sauce. Rumor has it that their pizza turned out better than any pizzeria product. The tomatoes truly were their MUSE!
