Chocolate easter egg crackles

Today, we made chocolate easter egg crackles. We first had to melt 3 mars bars, over simmering water, but we had to make sure that we were stirring the bowl constantly so it wouldn't stick and burn. Afgter that was done, we poured it over the rice bubbles and mixed it. We then placed easter eggs on top and placed the tray in the fridge to set. It was delicious!

Pasta with Spring Vegetables

In this hospitality lesson, we made pasta with spring vegetables. We had to cook the pasta first, then chop up all the vegetables to be cooked with the pasta. The carrots had to be choped up like matchsticks because they take longer to cook. The milk made the pasta really creamy, but we had to make sure that it wouldn't bubble. When the pasta was cooked, we added extra cheese. It was delicious

Tangy Lemon Slice

In our hospitality lesson, we made tangy lemon slices. It was quite simple to make. We first had to mix ingredients together to make the base of the tart, and then we placed it in the oven. Once we took it out, we covered it with the syrup, and placed it under the oven again. When it was cooked we took it out to cool down. My partner and I tried a bit of the lemon slice, we thought it tasted a bit like apple pie. Once we put some icing sugar on it and cut it into squares, I didn't put the lid fully on because if it was trapped in the heat, the slice would melt. They ended up to be quite tasty.

11/3/11

Today we watched a video on fibre. It related to breakfast and how we can make our breakfast full of fibre. This is very helpful with our assignment as it suggests the different foods that you should eat in breakfast that includes high intakes of fibre, and the foods that you should try and avoid. It will really help me answer a few of the questions on the assignment

Hedgehog slice :)

In this hospo lesson, we made hedgehog slices. When Kerys and I put it in the baking tray, there was a liquidy substance on the top. We were note sure what it was, but when the slice was cut up after it was in the fridge, it still tasted really good. I was really happy with the result of our hedgehog slice.
