Steffen Henssler, the renowned TV chef known for his show "Grill den Henssler", has recently introduced his new cookbook "Hensslers quick numbers - morning, noon, evening". The book, published by Tre Torri Verlag, Graefe and Unzer Verlag, features over 100 simple recipes for everyday life.

Henssler, based in Hamburg, encourages parents to involve their children in cooking. He advises that parents shouldn't fear letting their children cook, even with knives, as long as they're taught proper safety measures. Henssler believes the key to getting kids excited about cooking is to let them participate, not just watch.

The new cookbook doesn't specifically target teaching cooking to kids, but it includes simple recipes that anyone can cook. One of the recipes in the book is for cooking an egg properly for breakfast. The book focuses on providing quick and easy recipes for various times of the day.

Henssler acknowledges a generational shift in cooking knowledge and mentions that the traditional method of knowledge transfer (Grandma teaching mother, mother teaching daughter) is outdated. He suggests that more trust should be placed in children when it comes to cooking. In his opinion, it's important to let kids stir and cook, not just show them how.

The YouTube channel associated with Steffen Henssler has a popular video on cooking an egg properly. The channel has gained a large following for its simple and easy-to-follow cooking tutorials.

The new cookbook by Steffen Henssler, "Hensslers quick numbers - morning, noon, evening", doesn't mention any specific age group or cooking level it's intended for, suggesting it's broadly applicable. This makes it an ideal choice for families looking for simple recipes to cook together.

Overall, Henssler's new cookbook is a great resource for anyone looking for quick and easy recipes for various times of the day. With its simple recipes and emphasis on involving children in the cooking process, it is sure to become a staple in many households.
