Noticing what we are eating

Scoop and Level

Demonstrating proper measuring technique

Coarse salt

I gave each student a sample of coarse salt so they can learn how it's different from fine salt (ie, table salt). In the Adventure Kitchen, we use coarse salt for almost everything.

Cold ingredients

I encouraged the students to touch the ingredients in the bowl. Ingredients in pate brisee should feel cold to the touch.
