Description: What are Blue Zones? They’re geographic regions where people live longer, healthier lives than average– often past 100 years of age with few medical issues and remarkably little cognitive decline. It has been postulated that some of the foods from these regions may play a role in this type of longevity with vitality.
This cooking class will demonstrate how to make Kokuto Steamed Bread– a fluffy and moist dessert bread from the Blue Zone: Okinawa, Japan. Kokuto, known as Okinawa Black Sugar, creates the bread’s unique sweetness and rich flavor, and unlike conventional brown sugar, kokuto is high in calcium, potassium, and iron. Join Sonya to hear about the other remarkable benefits of this special sweetener as you learn to cook and eat like an Okinawan.
