Brave Little Kitchen Lab: No-Bake Food Science cover

Sound familiar?

Some weeks you want science, but you don't want a hot oven, a sink full of baking pans or a long recipe. Kitchen Lab is food science you can do at the table, with the why behind every step and a snack at the end.

The lessons

What you'll make

Lesson	The experiment	The make
1	Red Cabbage Magic	Quick Pickles
2	Shake It Up	Homemade Butter
3	Salt Ice Race	Ice Cream in a Bag
4	Oobleck	Oobleck + Pudding
5	Brown Apple Battle	Apple Nachos
6	Sugar Dissolve Race	Rock Candy
7	Pinch or No Pinch	Fresh Salsa

No oven anywhere in the pack. Rock candy needs hot sugar syrup on the stove, and that part is a grown-up job.

FAQ

Questions

Is it really no-bake?

Yes, no oven. Rock candy uses the stove for the syrup, handled by a grown-up.

How long does a lesson take?

Rock candy is the slow one: the crystals take days to grow.

Allergies?

The pack includes swaps. Butter and ice cream use dairy, so check the swap page and your family's allergy plan.
