Hands-On History Workshop: Baking and Cooking
This Hands-On History Workshop features baking and cooking at Old World Wisconsin!
Step up to the historic 1880s stove in the Crossroads Village Four Mile House kitchen and tend the fire as you prepare bread and meals eaten by early Wisconsin settler, including the Ingalls family. Use recipes, methods and utensils from the 19th century to craft a series of signature dishes the entire family is sure to enjoy. No cooking or baking experience is needed for this special occasion—an Old World Wisconsin ambassador will walk you through the process as you create your delicious eats.
