Pasta salad

On Tuesday the 27th of February, in food tech we had the chance to make a pasta salad.

While cooking this salad we learnt how to slice and dice some onions and tomatoes.

During our time in the kitchen, we also learnt how to cook pasta and also how to fry ham and onions.

Another technique we learnt was how to properly mix the pasta when we added in another ingredient.

For this pasta salad, we had pasta, tomatoes, onions, ham, corn and some mayo. When we had the chance to taste the salad it didn't have too much flavour so to tried to give it a little oomph with a little salt.

Multi coloured muffins

Multi coloured muffins

On Tuesday the 13th of February my class and I had cooking class. For class that day we were learning how to make multi coloured muffins. We Learnt how to make the batter with only 6 ingredients. We also learnt how to fold the batter instead of mixing it. After that our teacher taught us how scoop the batter and place it into the tin without any batter getting on the table/floor/tin. It is called multi coloured muffins because one of the main ingredients is food colouring. We baked them for 15 minutes at 180oC and waited patiently. When they where done we had a nice pinked coloured muffin ( we used pink food colouring ). It tasted really nice and it was really easy to make.
