Heather Wolfe still cooking
Heather Wolfe, dietician and nutritionist at Dartmouth Hitchcock and author of the cookbook Sustainable Kitchen, returned this week to the school kitchen where she took her first cooking class and decided her career path. Heather joined this year’s middle school cooking class to share her passion for healthy, sustainable living, and some recipes from her book.
Students made hummus with her and were able to sample homemade kale chips, energy balls, aquafaba meringue cookies, and watermelon basil water. No leftovers! Here you see two photos of Heather in the WUHSMS teaching kitchen - one from 1997 (making homemade pasta) and the other with this year's ms class! (More connections - some people will remember Heather’s mother, Karen Hawkes who taught French at Woodstock for many years. Heather is married to Woodstock social studies teacher Nick Wolfe.)
