Super foods dishes

I chose this lab because I wasn’t very used to eat a diet including this superfood and it was something that can help me in a future at the time of cooking and choosing recepies. When I come back to spain I will probably choose one of this receipe for my family because I will be ask for cooking something and I find something different to what I saw in spain and it would be good for my family.

I am not very fan of eating this kind of dishes but this was ok. At first I thought that it would be hard to me to eat to this kind of different vegetables but it was not too much disgusting, but the only thing I didn’t like was the avocado, it tasted really weird and was very hard to eat, I didn’t like it at all. It was funny cooking this kind of foods, and it was also very challenging because we needed to cook three dishes very quickly and also making a little presentation and I like challenging things.  Everything was nice, my favourite was our chicken, it was supposed to be salmon, but it is too expensive. It was good really good cooked and tasted delicious. I cooked potatoes, but we didn’t understand properly the instructions. It was supposed to be cooked like fries but I cut it in small pieces but it wasn’t a problem and the dish was delicious. So in my opinion everything was better than what I expected even our frozen dessert that it wasn’t frozen, it was like a fruit cold soup, tasted fantastic. At first I thought that mixing this ingredients could be a problem for how they taste but finally I was surprise how good they were combine and the quality of the menu was really high and that was something very good because we worked a lot and having a good result is very satisfactory

We worked really good with a division of duties so everyone knew exactly what they needed to do. My part was like a very simple one but I helped in the preparation of the dessert and everything went really good.

If I need to do it again I would probably choose some chocolate cake we saw at the web because the seem delicious but ye finally chose the fruit ice cream because it was like very different what we saw before.

 

November Reflection

My favorite lab of the course was the chicken preparation. I thought it could be very disgusting because I had a very bad experience some years ago when we opened a cow’s heart for my biology class and I had dizziness and I felt really bad, but it wasn’t the case. I felt comfortable and I enjoy it. I chose this lab because it was the most difficult we did (it was to long, so if you had a mistake everything would get bad) and it was which I enjoyed the most because it was very exciting for me the chicken’s preparation. My part were the legs, it was very interesting dislocating the legs and also disgusting when you felt the “crack”. But the best part was cutting.  The knife was too sharpy and big, at first was hard to find the point where you could cut, but when you find it was to easy and quickly to cut, that really impressed me how fast and easy I was allowed to cut ti.  I used plastic gloves because I didn’t feel good touching the chicken, it was really weird. I enjoyed the lab because it was something very different to what I was used to do at foods and nutrition 12 and I liked the feeling of cutting, it can sounds weird but it is true, it is very different the feeling of having a nice cut, knowing that your group can continuing cooking good thanks to you, and not ruining everyone’s work.

Our chicken was well prepared, but then we had a problem which we couldn’t correct, the noodle was very soupy and it didn’t have a clear taste, so I didnt enjoy it consumption and it was very heavy and Ii felt fully.

This was the time I think we worked better because everyone had very clear what we should do so we worked very fast and each member did really well their part. It was very quick and everyone study really well before what we need to do, and we toke notes that were really helpful when we got lost.  We help each other to find the point where we should cut because it sometimes it could get hard to find it.

I would like to correct the fact that our noodles were very soupy and without any taste, because it was really hard for to eat and they werent really enjoyable.
