At Black Girls Cook, we believe learning can happen in so many different ways—and with Storybook Cooks, our youngest chefs get to experience it through stories, culture, creativity, and food.

Designed for girls ages 5–8, Storybook Cooks combines literacy with hands-on culinary experiences that encourage our girls to try new things, build confidence, explore different cultures, and create joyful memories in the kitchen. ✨

Because cooking is about so much more than following a recipe. It’s an opportunity to read, create, explore, and grow. 💗

🍎🥕 What’s in season this October? 🍐🍇

At Black Girls Cook, we love teaching our girls that understanding food goes beyond learning how to prepare a recipe—it’s also about learning where our food comes from, when it grows, and how to make the most of fresh ingredients. 💗

October brings plenty of delicious produce to explore, from crisp apples and pears to carrots, grapes, pomegranates, greens and more.

Learning what’s in season is another way we help our girls build confidence in the kitchen, explore new foods, and develop a deeper connection to the ingredients on their plates. 👩🏾‍🍳✨

At Black Girls Cook, we believe learning to cook is also an opportunity to learn about the history, culture, and traditions connected to the foods on our plates.

For this lesson, our girls made Southern Sheet Pan BBQ Chicken with Roasted Sweet Potatoes while exploring the sweet potato’s place in Black American food history.

From roasted dishes and casseroles to breads and beloved desserts like sweet potato pie, sweet potatoes have long been an important and versatile ingredient in Black American kitchens.

👉🏾 Swipe for the recipe, a few “Did You Know?” facts, and a little Black food history along the way.

In case you missed it…Black Girls Cook was on FOX 5 DC with MikeaTV 👩🏾‍🍳💗

We stopped by to highlight our new Beverage Program and share a few fun, refreshing drinks that kids can make right at home with their families.

Our Beverage Program gives girls another way to explore the culinary arts—learning about ingredients, flavor combinations, techniques, and of course, getting creative along the way! 💕🥤

Watch the segment to see what we mixed up!

And stay tuned for details on our next cohort featuring our new Beverage Program. ✨

🧄 Garlic 101 is in session!

At Black Girls Cook, we’re not just teaching our girls how to follow a recipe—we’re helping them understand the ingredients they’re working with and build skills they can carry into any kitchen.

In this lesson, Come With Me broke down all things garlic.

What ingredient should we explore next? 👇🏾

This summer during Flavor Flip, our girls explored just how versatile one ingredient can be—this time, the star was apples!

🍗 On the savory side: BBQ Chicken with Apple Chopped Salad
🥧 On the sweet side: Sheet Pan Apple Crisp

Through each recipe, our young chefs practiced different culinary techniques, explored flavor balancing, and learned how the foods we cook connect to the history and traditions of the African Diaspora.

Because at Black Girls Cook, we’re not just teaching girls how to follow a recipe. We’re helping them understand ingredients, experiment with flavors, build confidence in the kitchen, and discover the cultural stories behind the food on their plates.

Swipe through to explore highlights from both recipes and learn more about their cultural connections.

Now tell us: How do you prefer your apples—SWEET or SAVORY?
