Kids don’t know this. Delicacies from leftovers. Eco-workshops for seniors

Can cooking be tasty, budget-friendly and waste-free?

Kids don’t know this: delicacies from leftovers is a culinary workshop for seniors that explores how to use every bit of food and reduce kitchen waste.

What’s in store for participants?

• Ideas bank: what to use instead of throwing away
  Participants will share creative ways to reuse food scraps. Can potato peels become a crunchy snack? Can stale bread be the base for a new dish?
• Brainstorming session: waste-free recipes
  A group discussion on how to create meals that use ingredients efficiently, combining traditional cooking knowledge with modern zero-waste approaches.
• Zero-waste cooking session
  Participants will select the best idea and prepare a dish that uses every part of the chosen ingredients.

Why take part?

• Save money and protect the environment: reducing food waste lowers household costs and cuts environmental impact.
• Rediscover the flavours of the past: older generations knew how to make the most of every ingredient. This is a chance to pass that knowledge on.
• Support a circular economy in the kitchen: every ingredient has value when used creatively.

Kids don’t know this: delicacies from leftovers is a reminder that food waste was once a luxury. Today, cutting waste is a necessity, for both our planet and our wallets.

This event is organised as part of the LIFE project 'Silesia. Blue Sky Restored.'
