Kids Learn from Kid-Chef Duke Kenney at Waialae School

Posted On: Oct 04, 10

       

As a kick off to the Eat Local Challenge,  9 year old Duke Kenney and his assistant, Chef Ed Kenney, demonstrated how to prepare a 100% locally sourced meal that the entire family can make at home. Families from the entire Kalani complex converged at Waialae School’s dining hall to watch Duke prepare steak from Maui Cattle Co., pa’i'ai from Mana ‘ai,  and lomi tomato from Ho Farms.  Seasonings included Hawaiian sea salt, Frankie’s Waimanalo Peppercorn, Naked Cow Dairy butter and Oils of Aloha macadamia nut oil.

The event was also streamed live with 95 visitors logging in to watch Duke cook, one from as far as New York. Following the demo the audience got to taste Duke’s creation and was engaged in a lively Q & A with Duke and the children in the audience.
