Sauce Lab

In lab we made the caramel sauce! It went really smooth! 
Tip:  Have everything ready to go before you start melting the sugar, the process goes really fast, so be ready! :)

The two fruit sauces we made were the fruit syrup and the coulis. The difference between the two are the coulis is pureed and the fruit syrup is strained!

Favorite Dessert

My favorite dessert is cheesecake!  Cheesecake is often served with sauces but can be served without.  It can be served with caramel, fruit, or chocolate sauces.  

Lab 1: Poaching Pears


Q. How did you poach fruit?
A. You submerge fruit in simmering liquid.

Q. What did you consider when plating your dish?
A. I considered how nice it looked.

I think the lab went well but we were really crammed for time, also while we were washing dishes I dropped a plate and it shattered into literally a thousand pieces.

Communication Quiz


For my personality quiz I scored the...

Buddy Type
People often mention how nice you are. It makes you feel good when you hear that and you like helping the people with whom you work. You always try to do your best and you’re willing to put in extra time on a project and pitch in wherever it is needed. After all, it’s important you all work together to get the job done. You work with some great people and you like to do things for them such as bringing in donuts on Fridays or starting a collection to buy a birthday cake. You know people appreciate little things like that. Your group feels like old friends who look out for one another. Even when things are difficult, you can get through it if you all work together.

I agreed with this.
