Community Education Director, Melinda Barnett (Mrs. M), had the opportunity to cook with Mrs. Hughes’ class at ECHS today! Students rolled up their sleeves and made homemade pasta from scratch, along with a spaghetti sauce using fresh garlic and basil.

Along the way, they discovered just how simple cooking can be—learning that pasta can be made with just a cup of flour, two eggs, salt, and olive oil (and even without eggs!), and that a delicious sauce doesn’t have to be complicated.

More importantly, students were reminded that sometimes the hardest part is simply trying something new. Today was a great lesson in confidence, creativity, and the realization that a homemade meal can come together with just a few basic pantry ingredients. 🍝
