This week is our first cooking lab of the quarter, making real hot chocolate with pairs customizing their drink flavour and milk choice. Students will also learn a brief history of the cacao bean followed by a chocolate tasting of white, milk and dark chocolates.
Recipes can be found under the "Food Studies Recipes" tab at the top of this website. Each student will take home a duotang of their class work and recipes at the end of the quarter. No school Friday, Feb. 17 ~ Pro-D day. SAFETY, SANITATION and START-UP
This week we will be reviewing safety, sanitation and start-up. We will watch a series of short videos to review main kitchen safety and sanitation topics then complete a kitchen tools treasure hunt activity. We will also be reviewing measuring tools and techniques. Our first lab will be next week. Students with allergies/dietary restrictions and new students to RMS must return the signed welcome letter before our first cooking lab. Failure to return this form will result in alternate ingredients not being available. Reminder - Thursday and Friday are early dismissal days for parent-teacher conferences. See the RMS website for the schedule (classes end at 12pm). Welcome to quarter three exploratory classes at RMS! For the first week students will spend time getting to know the daily routines in the Food Studies class. We will begin navigating the enhanced safety and sanitation procedures that are an important part of our classroom learning this year. After going through the course outline, students will be given a welcome letter to share with their parent/guardian. Any new students to RMS or students with food allergies/dietary restrictions must return the signed form in order to participate in upcoming cooking labs.
