There is no particular age recommendation as to when a child can start cooking. However, age typically determines your level of participation and attention.
Kids love to cook, and few parents mind a little help in the kitchen every now and again.
This Summer, give the kids a little extra responsibility and start them on a path of culinary success in the kitchen . And don't forget that clean-up is a part of the process. In a large mixing bowl stir together the bread pieces, milk, egg, salt, minced onion, and Worcestershire sauce. Add the ground beef and thoroughly mix all ingredients with freshly washed and dried hands. Shape the loaf to neatly fit into a 9-inch loaf pan.
