Scrap Cooking. The zero-waste movement has inspired “scrap cooking,” or whipping up a meal out of would-be kitchen waste

 Scrap cooking is a technique where one cooks a meal using ingredients that would otherwise be considered as waste in the kitchen, such as vegetable peels, fruit scraps, and leftover bones. This approach is closely associated with the zero-waste movement, which aims to reduce the amount of waste produced by households and businesses. The goal of scrap cooking is to use up all the food and ingredients that one has on hand and to reduce food waste. It can also be seen as a way to be more sustainable and resourceful in the kitchen. Some examples of scrap cooking include using apple peels to make apple peel jelly, using vegetable scraps to make broth, and using stale bread to make bread pudding. There are many scrap cooking recipes and techniques that can be found online, cookbooks, and also many communities and groups on social media platforms that focus on zero waste living and scrap cooking.
