Week 2
In Week 2 we reviewed what we learned last week - what do germs need to grow & danger zones. We looked at the importance of hand washing and where gems hide. This week we made made healthy salad wraps and we put to use our leftover chicken from Wednesday by making a delicious soup!
'Cooking Safely on a Budget' was a 6 session course on offer here at Deaf Connections through the month of October 2012 for deaf/hard of hearing adult learners. It was funded by the Food Standards Agency - Food Safety Week Campaign and the tuition was delivered by a REHIS
tutor and supported by an ALN tutor. We ran our first cooking course earlier on in the year and it proved so successful and so popular we are hoping to make it a regular opportunity for the Deaf community!
For more information about ALN and the
courses we run please contact Anne@deafconnections.co.uk We are currently taking
names for January 2013 Cook & Learn.
Week 1
In Week 1 we had 2 sessions, Wednesday and Friday. Six of our ALN learners made 2 delicious dishes - a roast chicken
dinner and then using the vegetable leftovers, a tasty warming soup with a nip!
Importantly they also learned about cooking these dishes safely to avoid cross
contamination and about best before and use by dates as well as other important
health & hygiene do's and don'ts. It was very informative and
everyone can't wait for the next session on Friday and to follow up with some
exciting ALN oportunities!
