  • 4-H FCS Skill-A-Thon Foods and Cooking ID
    4-H FCS Skill-a-thon Foods and Cooking ID The photos shown here are only one option of what an item may look like. Other options are available. Revised January 2020 1 Appliances Air fryer It’s a kitchen appliance that uses superheated air to cook foods, giving results very similar to deep-frying or high- temperature roasting. Air fryers use the same technolo- gy as convection ovens, but instead of blowing the air around a large rectangular box, it is blown around in a compact cylinder and the food sits in a perforated bas- ket. This is much more efficient and creates an intense environment of heat from which the food cannot escape. The result is food with a crispy brown exterior and moist tender interior – results similar to deep-frying, but without all the oil and fat needed to deep-fry. Blender — An elec- trical kitchen appliance used for mixing foods or batter Bread Machine is a home appliance for turning raw ingre- dients into baked bread. It con- sists of a bread pan (or "tin"), at the bottom of which are one or more built-in paddles, mounted in the center of a small special- purpose oven. This small oven is usually controlled by a simple built-in computer using settings input via a control panel. Most bread machines have different Electric Pressure Cooker An electric pressure cooker consists of a pressure cooking container (a.k.a. inner pot or cooking pot), the electric heating element, and temperature / pressure sensors. The heating process is controlled by the built-in micro- processor based on the readings of the pressure and temperature sensors.

  • Basic Knife Skills Guide.Pdf
    Basic Knife Skills Basic knife skills are an important component of any culinarian’s repertoire - whether you plan to earn a living in the kitchen, or simply please yourself, your friends, and your family. Learning to wield a knife correctly will speed up your prep time, and food products fashioned in uniform shapes and sizes will help guarantee even cooking throughout a dish. In addition, the mastery of certain classic knife cuts and methodology will vastly improve the look of your food, garnishes and plate presentations. Overview of the lesson Goal: to impart a basic knowledge of knife safety, knife construction, the most commonly used kitchen knives, a few classic knife cuts. Equipment You won’t need any truly special equipment for this lesson. The bare minimum requirements are: A sturdy cutting board A (sharp!) chef’s knife A (sharp!) paring knife A vegetable peeler Hopefully, you also own a steel (a tool to hone your knife edge between sharpenings and intermittently during use). If you have a tourne or bird’s beak knife, that’s great – but not absolutely necessary. Shopping List Here’s a list of what you might like to have on hand if you want to try all the techniques I’m going to present: A bag of baking potatoes A bunch of carrots A few large, firm onions A few handfuls of leafy herbs or vegetables (large-leaf basil or spinach would be ideal, but cabbage will suffice) A couple of bell peppers Knife Safety The safe use of knives is imperative for obvious reasons.
