How This Book Came About
The idea for creating this book came about from the trend of
schools, child care centers and residential child care institutions
preparing their menu items from scratch and using locally grown
products in those recipes.
The purchasing of locally grown or harvested foods has risen
substantially in the last few years. In the 2012 Farm to School
census, approximately 68 percent of our schools reported
participating in Farm to School activities. At 53 percent, seafood
and vegetables are reported as the most commonly purchased
local foods for service. In increasing the use of local foods, there
was a corresponding need for recipes using Alaska grown and
harvested products that are less common in the Lower 48 such
as moose, reindeer, and caribou.
Through a grant from USDA Team Nutrition, the Department of
Education & Early Development in collaboration with the UAF
Cooperative Extension Service and the Farm to School Program
created the Make it Local Recipes for Alaska’s Children with
much thought and planning. We hope that you enjoy it and
remember to have fun when preparing and serving the recipes
to children throughout Alaska.

This collection of “from scratch recipes” highlight foods that are unique to
Alaska and have been tested to be “kid–friendly”. The recipes have been
formatted to provide step by step instructions.
The recipes have been standardized for 25 or 75 servings and meet the
portion requirements for both the National School Lunch Program (NSLP)
and the Child and Adult Care Feeding Program (CACFP); adjustments can be
made based on serving size needs.
The recipes have an ingredient list and step by step directions that are easy to
follow. It is important that the foodservice staff follow each step so that the
finished product has the same quality each time it is served to the students.
For your convenience, the nutrient facts and meal component credits are
specified for each recipe. You may notice on some recipes that the amount
of the meal component credit is less than the serving size. The staff at
Cooperative Extension Service intentionally provided conservative crediting
amounts to ensure all servings provided the meal component credit as
presented.
All of the locally grown or harvested foods in each recipe are highlighted
with bold blue font.

Cooking Up Nutrition Workshops
The Cooking Up Nutrition Workshops offered foodservice personnel at the district and agency site level to gain a greater knowledge of the
use of standardized recipes and the 2010 Dietary Guidelines. The workshop focused on hands-on scratch cooking using sweet potatoes,
legumes, and whole grains along with reducing the fat and sodium amounts in recipes.
Surveys were taken by the participants to determine how effective the Cooking Up Nutrition Workshops were. Participants had to complete
an action plan identifying measures that they intended to take upon return to their school or agency. Implementation surveys were taken by
participants to determine if the workshops were a success. Results showed there was an increase in the use of standardized recipes, using the
Dietary Guidelines to plan menus, serving of red/orange and dark green vegetables and scratch cooking and baking.

mixer bowl. Mix with a dough hook on low
speed until combined, about 30 seconds.
2. Combine warm water and oil. Add liquids

and mix until dough is very stiff and bounc-
es back when pressed with a thumb, about
12 minutes.
3. Shape dough into a ball and place into a light-
ly greased container. Cover with plastic wrap
or a lid and place in a warm area to rise until
doubled in size, approximately 45 minutes to
an hour.
4. Preheat oven to 400°F.
5. Punch dough down and divide into balls as
necessary. For 25 servings leave dough as one
ball. For 75 servings divide into 3 balls. All
dough balls will be approximately 2 lbs 6 oz.
Keep dough balls covered until ready to use.
6. Lightly coat half-sheet pans (13”x18”x1”)
with pan release spray and sprinkle with
cornmeal or cover with parchment paper.
For 25 servings, use 1 half-sheet pan. For 75
servings, use 3 half-sheet pans.
7. Place each dough ball on lightly floured
surface and roll out to 1/8” thickness,
transfer to prepared pan.
8. Add toppings and place in oven and bake
for 15–18 minutes or until done.
9. Remove from oven and cut each half-sheet
pan into 25 servings (5 x 5).

Hints
DIRECTIONS
When rolling out
the dough it may
want to bounce
back instead of
spreading out to
the edges of the
pan. If it becomes
too difficult to
work with, cover
with plastic or a
towel and allow
to sit undisturbed
for a few minutes
while working on
the next pan(s)
of dough.
Tip: For best results, have all ingredients and utensils at room temperature.
