3 1 Introduction Prerequisite: Culinary II This course is designed for students who have a solid background and a passion for the culinary arts. Students open and operate a catering business within the school. They have an opportunity to learn organizational and entrepreneurial skills, increase math skills and improve social skills. Numerous opportunities are offered for individual and group activities.

4 2 Unit 1: Safeguarding Health [Chapter 6] Why Is This Unit Important? Keeping foods safe to eat and making the kitchen a safe place to work are keys to good health. Improper food handling can make you ill. Kitchen accidents can cause severe injuries. You can prevent both illness and accidents by following safety principles. Federal, state and local governments all play key roles in helping to keep the food supply safe. Local governments are in charge of sending health inspectors to visit food businesses. These inspectors make sure the businesses are following state health codes. Enduring Understandings: Foodborne illness Food contamination Bacterial illness Other foodborne illness Four steps to food safety Clean Separate Cook and grill Cooking for special occasions Eating safely when eating out Storing foods Safety in the kitchen Preventing chemical poisonings Preventing and treating cuts Preventing and treating burns preventing fires Preventing and treating falls Preventing and treating electric shock Preventing and treating choking Essential Questions: What are three microorganisms, other than bacteria, that can cause foodborne illness? What are the proper temperatures for serving hot and cold foods? For what groups of people do foodborne illnesses pose the greatest risk? Where do most of the foodborne illness cases reported each year occur? What is the correct way to pick up and dispose of broken glass? What should be used to pull a shock victim away from an electrical source? Acquired Knowledge: How most of the foodborne illness cases reported each year occur in food service establishments. Washing your hands may be the most important step you can take to prevent the transmission of harmful bacteria. Color is not always an accurate indicator of doneness in meats. One out of every four hamburgers turns brown in the middle before it has reached a safe internal temperature.

5 3 Cooking for a crowd or cooking outdoor meals requires extra measures to keep food safe to eat. Bacteria multiply rapidly at moderate temperatures. To prevent this, keep hot foods hot and cold foods cold. Knowledge of basic first aid will help you provide treatment to someone involved in a kitchen accident. A simple first aid kit kept in the kitchen should include items you need to treat minor injuries. Acquired Skills: Identify the four steps to food safety when buying, preparing and storing food. Identify and demonstrate sanitation guidelines when handling food. Discuss the importance of using paper towels when wiping up meat and poultry juices. Demonstrate the hand-washing steps after handling raw meat, fish, poultry or eggs before touching other foods. Identify the sanitary procedures to use when preparing picnic foods. Identify the guidelines to help prevent chemical poisonings. Major Assessments: Explore food safety and sanitation from production through consumption. Evaluate and understand the influence of science and technology on the development, production and consumption of foods and related issues. Apply basic first aid measures.

12 10 Unit 3: The Preparation of Food [Chapters 13-21] Why Is This Unit Important? Cereals are the major staple food for people throughout the world. This is because they are easy to grow and store. They are also low in cost and have high energy value. Most vegetables are fairly low in cost and calories. Vegetables are versatile enough to use in any menu. They can be served raw or cooked to add color, flavor, texture and nutrients to meals. They are also good choices for between-meal snacks and can be purchased fresh, canned, frozen and dried. Fresh, canned, frozen and dried fruits add flavor, color and texture contracts to meals. They are generally nutritious and low in calories, so they are good choices for desserts and snacks. Fruits can be eaten raw or cooked. Eggs are one of the most versatile and nutritious food sources. They can be prepared in many ways. Because eggs are easy to digest, they can be served to people at nearly all stages of the life cycle. Many meal managers choose the meat course first when planning menus. Meat dishes should be tender, flavorful and attractive. The word poultry describes any domesticated bird. Chicken, turkey, goose and duck are the types of poultry most commonly eaten in the United States. At one time, chicken and turkey were only eaten on special occasions, but today they are part of everyday meals. Commercial fisheries in the United States catch several millions of pounds of fish each year for food. However, the U.S. is a smaller consumer of fish and fish products compared with other countries. Salads, casseroles and soups add versatility to menus. They may be served as the main course or as an accompaniment to a meal. These combination dishes are nutritious as well as economical.

28 26 Unit 7: Pasty Basics [Chapters 13-15] Why Is This Unit Important? Early on in America it was not uncommon for a household to bake 21 pies each week one for every meal. Pies were so important to settlers that in the winter, when fruits were unavailable, cooks would bake dessert pies out of whatever materials were available, such as potatoes, vinegar and soda crackers. The term pastry comes from the word paste meaning, in this case, a mixture of flour, liquid and fat. In the bakeshop, pastry refers both to various pastes and dough and to many products made from them. To many bakers, pastry work is the most exciting and challenging part of their careers. It offers unlimited scope for developing artistic creativity and it gives them opportunities to display their decorative skills.
