Spicing up their knowledge

The Star - Oct 2017

Students of two secondary schools spent a thrilling morning in Penang's Little India enclave learning about turmeric, a versatile and widely used spice.

The group of 40 from SMK Abdullah Munshi and SMK Convent Lebuh Light, aged 13 to 16, were taking part in the ‘You Think You Can Masak’ (YTYCM) workshop.

Aimed at letting youngsters experience cultural diversity through food, the workshop is one of the Cultural Heritage Education Programmes (CHEP) jointly organised by George Town World Heritage Incorporated and Arts-ED.
