Did you know 30% of children can't identify a leek or zucchini, 50% struggle with artichokes, and 90% don't recognize beets? Shocking stats, right? 'Learning to recognize flavors, cook, and eat well is as vital as reading or writing,' says two-Michelin-starred Chef Jean Sulpice. He's partnering with Uncle Ben's to inspire families through the 'Ben's Beginners' program.
As program sponsor, the Savoyard chef has crafted simple, creative rice-based recipes. 'Rice is accessible, quick to prepare, and perfect for getting kids fully involved in family meals!' he shares.
Jean Sulpice is also hosting a Facebook contest for families with kids aged 5-12. Snap a photo or short video of your family's rice recipe, post it on Uncle Ben's France Facebook page. The winner, plus 14 friends and a parent each, wins a full day of culinary workshops with the chef—exploring tastes, smells, and tastings. Grand prize: a €10,000 Mobalpa kitchen for the winning family. Ready, set, cook!
