Guest Chef - Kim

Today we were very lucky to have another guest chef in our classroom.
Kim came in today and made 'pork dumplings' with us. She used pork mince, a carrot, ginger, spring onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, cornflour and won ton wrappers. Kim told us that she bought some of the ingredients from the Asian Grocery store that we visited at Forest Hill.
While Kim was cooking with us we made some new discoveries about cooking ~

*chefs use different sized graters for different foods
*steaming is another way of cooking food
*chefs put water on the edges of the won ton wrappers to help them stick together
*to steam food you need to put the steamer over boiling water
*we found out the difference between boiling and simmering - boiling water has bubbles with steam while simmering water just has steam

Thank you Kim for coming in to enhance our learning.
