A table, a mortar and pestle, a frying pan, a cutting board, a knife and a few farm fresh ingredients – a green kitchen is all about basic tools and simple ingredients. Star chefs from around the world conducted short cooking demonstrations that demonstrated the most essential and basic techniques for preparing good, clean and fair food for the whole family.
