LESSON 4 GERMOMETER Draw a germometer in the space below and label what happens to bacteria at different temperatures.

LESSON 4 FOOD HYGIENE Germs are all around us. Germs are also known as bacteria. Some bacteria are good for us but some make us ill. To avoid becoming ill we must keep ourselves and our kitchen clean. Bacteria need four things to grow: We can help prevent food from contamination by: 1.Keeping food covered 2.Handling food as little as possible. 3.Raw and cooked food should be kept separate. 4.Store perishable foods in a fridge or freezer until needed. Now complete the following: 1.How can you prevent bacteria growing on food? 2.What does perishable mean? 3.Give 5 examples of perishable foods. 4.What happens to bacteria when food is stored in the fridge? 5.What happens to bacteria when you boil water? 6.What happens to bacteria when stored in the danger zone?

LESSON 6 WEIGHING AND MEASURING Getting the correct amount of food is very important. If your weighing and measuring is wrong your recipe is very unlikely to turn out properly. There are different pieces of equipment used to weigh and measure in the kitchen. These are measuring scales, measuring spoons and measuring jugs. The equipment you use is depending on whether you are weighing small or large amounts and if the food is solid or liquid Scales are used to measure large amounts of dry food in grams (g). Measuring jugs are used to measure large quantities of liquids in millilitres (ml). More than 100ml Measuring spoons are used to measure small amounts of liquid or dry foods in millilitres (ml) less than 100ml

LESSON 4 COOKING Organise the foods under the part of the cooker where it should be cooked. Remember some foods may go under 2 headings. bacon Stir fry pasta Boiled egg steak Roast chicken cake Beans on toast Spaghetti bolognaise Baked potatoes Tomato soup Apple pie HOBGRILLOVEN

LESSON 6 MEASURING Look at the list of food below. They can be measured using scales, measuring jug or measuring spoons.

LESSON 1 EXPLORING A RECIPE Words make up the way we communicate or talk to each other. In most subjects that you study there are special ways of using words. A recipe is one way in which we communicate food preparation in Food Technology. A recipe is a set of directions for mixing and preparing foods. Recipes contain three parts Name Ingredients Method Tomato Casserole 6 firm tomatoes 250g breadcrumbs 60g margarine 60g cheese Seasoning 5ml parsley 1.Peel and slice tomatoes 2.Arrange layers of sliced tomatoes, breadcrumbs, margarine and seasoning in a greased casserole dish. 3.Finish with a later of breadcrumbs and dot with margarine. 4.Bake in the oven for 20 mins. (180’C) 5.Sprinkle grated cheese on top and bake for a further 10 minutes. 6.Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve. NAME The name of the dish INGREDIENTS Types and amounts of foods needed METHOD The instructions set out in order

LESSON 4 THE COOKER Your teacher will have told you how to use a cooker, and what parts are used for cooking certain foods. Using the word bank label the parts of cooker below. Ovengrill/top oven controls hob front left ring
