Dear Parent, Welcome to the Billericay School Food Technology department! Your son / daughter is about to start his / her Food course. He / she is expected to bring in the ingredients for each dish to be made, along with a suitable dish or container for the finished product. We will be making a different product in each lesson apart from two, one of which will be Health and Safety, and the other which will be Nutrition theory work. In the interests of keeping organised for the lessons, this booklet contains shopping lists of all the ingredients you may need to stock up on for the practical lessons. Some ingredients which are used in very small amounts are available from the Food Department store cupboard and are listed overleaf. (These are marked in the recipes with an *) We make a small charge for baking ingredients used when the student may have forgotten an ingredient. If you wish to obtain the full recipe, these can be found on the Billericay School Website on the Design Technology page, in pdf format. The recipes can be printed. Lost workbooks and this booklet may also be printed from the same area. We teach Healthy Eating in all aspects of Food Technology, and try to ensure that the pupils do the same. This also fits in with our Healthy School status. Fresh foods are used wherever possible, and they should return home to you as a tasty dish or product batch. May we please ask that you do not pre-prepare or pre-mix any of your child s ingredients at home. These skills form the basis of the lessons in year 7 and 8.They cannot learn new skills and processes if it has been done for them! Thank you. If anyone in the family has a special dietary need please use your usual ingredients for the dish. (e.g. gluten-free flour or vegetarian ingredients. ) I hope you enjoy the products that your son / daughter will be making. H.E.MATTEN HEAD OF FOOD TECHNOLOGY THE BILLERICAY SCHOOL.
