🍲Food Technology Reflection🍲

I am learning to reflect on Technology

Food Technology @ Tamaki College

Today, we had our 2nd Technology lesson. This lesson in cooking class was all about following the ingredients and measurements without mostly using Miss Tuipulotu help. Today we made Cinnamon and Jam Muffin which included the ingredients and measurements of...

• 1 cup of plain flour,
• 2 Eggs
• 1/2 cups of sugar
• 1 tsp of baking soda
• 1 tablespoon of Jam
• 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
• 25 Grams of Butter

We had to try our best to follow the step by step process of making 12 different Cinnamon and Jam Muffin. The most challenging part I found about this cooking session was when, we had to try following the process of creating this without using some of Miss Tuipulotu help! We had to use different sorts of equipment like...

1. Whisk
2. Plastic Scrapper
3. Measuring Cups
4. Measuring Spoons
5. Teaspoons
6. Dessert Spoons
7. Metric Cups
8. 1 Medium Bowl/ 1 Large Bowl

The one thing I found interesting and I looked forward to in the lesson was putting our trays in the oven. We were given 2 different things to do, in each group there were 2 people, and 1 person would do the dry ingredients and wet ingredients.. I myself choose to do the Dry ingredient while my partner/buddy Demetrius worked on the wet ingredients. So for wet and dry ingredients, we used 2 different bowls one large one and one medium sized one. After it was done we had to melt the butter using the microwave, and put everything together in the bigger bowl. After that we would mix and mix and then bring the muffin trays, and insert everything getting, it prepared for cook off! On top of each Cinnamon and Jam Muffin, would be jam in the centre of it all and once that was complete we would then cover it up with more of the dry and wet ingredients mixed and combined. Then BABOOM... in the oven it goes.

While that cooking we had to clean out tables and wash our dishes then putting everything away, in exactly where it was before. 15 minutes later the oven timer goes off and its ready to be put out.. We then put the toppings of cinnamon and brown sugar together on it. In order to get the topping, you had to get one tablespoon, of brown sugar and cinnamon, and mix then sprinkling it on the top of Cinnamon and Jam muffin.

Please leave a comment below, and eave a comment about how you think myself and Demetrius Cinnamon and Jam Muffin!

In the next lesson I would like to try and reach the goal of putting the right measurements of ingredients, in the next food we will be making next week!
