children’s sandwiches. Use the shears to cut a pocket in toast and waffles. Cut
sandwiches in different shapes like rectangles, triangles and circles.

3. COOKIE CUTTERS
Small, medium and large. Small ones are perfect for cutting out the
tinier breads for tea sandwiches and medium and large for making larger
sandwiches.

4. GRATER AND SHREDDER


Grating cheese, meat and other ingredients
allows flavors to mix, thus; palatability of
sandwich is increase.

lettuce without causing the edges to turn brown. It
is efficient in slicing lettuce.

10. PARING KNIFE


A small knife with a straight, sharp blade that is generally
three to five inches long. Its thin, narrow blade is tapers to
a point at the tip. It is easy to handle and works well for
peeling and coring foods or mincing and cutting small
items.

11. SANDWICH KNIFE


A sharp-bladed kitchen utensil used to slice through a
medium amount of food ingredients "sandwiched"
between two slices of bread. Similar in use to a deli knife,
the sandwich knife is shorter in length with a shorter
blade depth in order to easily cut through smaller to
medium-sized sandwiches.

12. SERRATED KNIFE


A knife with a sharp edge that has saw-like notches or
teeth. The blade of a serrated knife is 5 to 10 inches
long and is used to slice through food that is hard on
the outside and soft on the inside, such as slicing
through the hard crusts of bread. A serrated knife with a short, thin blade is intended
for slicing fruits and vegetables
.

13. CUTTING BOARD


Comes in wood and plastic, use to protect the
table when slicing bread.

14. MIXING BOWLS

other foods.

8. FREEZER. Used to hold foods for longer times and to


store foods purchased in frozen form.

9. REFRIGERATOR. A thermally insulated compartment


used to store food at a temperature below the ambient
temperature of the room.

Ingredients Used For Sandwiches


1. Breads – good quality breads provide variety, texture, taste, bulk, nutrients
and eye appeal to sandwiches. Fresh bread is easier to slice or cut if it has
been chilled.

2. Meats – maybe roast beef, pork and cured meat products like ham, sausage
and salami

3. Poultry – are chicken or turkey breasts characterized by a delicate golden


brown surfaces.
.

6
LM -Cookery Grade 9

4.Fish and Shellfish – some popular seafood ingredients are tuna, sardines,
grilled and fried fish fillets, crab meat and shrimp which are highly perishable
and should be kept chilled to maintain quality.

5. Cheese – refers to cheddar, processed cream cheese and cheese


spreads with firm texture, easily sliced, and act as binder, moistener of other
ingredients, it should be refrigerated and remain covered until ready to
serve to avoid drying out.

6.Spreads – like mayonnaise, mustard and butter, moisten the bread and
compliment the flavors of other ingredients. They should be served
immediately and kept refrigerated to preserve its color and
flavor.

7.Condiments – like olive oil, relishes , chutneys give a lift to a sandwich,


some of them are high in acid so don’t combine them with strong flavored condiments.

8.Vegetables – should be crisped and proportion to the size of sandwich.


Lettuce, tomatoes and onions are indispensable in sandwich making, it
adds texture, flavor and color to the sandwich.

BASIC COMPONENTS OF A SANDWICH


8
LM -Cookery Grade 9

1. The Structure or Base – it is the part upon which the Ingredients are
placed, consists of some form of bread or dough produce that is whole or sliced.
2. Moistening Agent – is meant to bind the sandwich providing an
improvement of both flavor and texture. It acts as the protective layer between the
filling and the structure, preventing the filling from softening or wetting the bread.
3. The filling – consists of one or more ingredients that are stacked, layered
or folded within or on the structure to form the sandwich. The varieties of fillings
should be carefully selected. The filling can be hot or cold and comes in any form
of cooked, cured meat, fruit, vegetables, salad or a combination of any of them.

Different Types of Sandwiches

 COLD SANDWICHES

1. Open-faced Sandwiches

Open sandwiches make use of one kind of bread with the filling on top. The
slices of white bread can be cut into squares, triangles or rounds.
Butter is spread lightly on top and pieces of cheese or
meat fillings are arranged and garnished attractively like that make /use of
biscuits, cookies or toasts instead of using breads.

2. Regular Cold Sandwiches

A plain sandwich is made up of two slices of bread, preferably a day-old bread,


toasted if desired, and on which butter can be readily spread. Its crusts may or
may not be removed, depending upon your preference. Butter, mayonnaise or
a prepared sandwich spread may be used as lining to prevent the bread from
absorbing moisture from the filling. Moreover, it ensures that the bread and the
filling will stick together.
3. Pinwheel Sandwiches

Pinwheels are made of bread cut lengthwise, about 3/8 inch thick. Fresh
cream bread is preferable because they are easy to roll and will not crack.
Trim crusts and flatten long slices with rolling pin. Spread bread with softened
butter or margarine and your choice of any smooth filling, like creamed
cheese, marmalades, cheese pimiento, peanut butter, jams and jellies.
Smooth filling are ideal for pinwheel sandwiches, because they do not have
bulk and can be spread thinly. Roll up bread like a jelly roll.

4. Tea Sandwiches

Tea sandwiches are small fancy sandwiches made from light,


delicate ingredients and bread that has been trimmed of crusts.
And may be made ahead of time and frozen. They are often cut
into fancy shapes, squares, rectangles and oblongs add to the
9
LM -Cookery Grade 9

variety. Fillings and spreads can be the same as those for


canapés.

5. Multi-decker Sandwiches

Are made with more than two slices of bread (or rolls split into
more than two pieces) and with several ingredients in the filling.
The club sandwich is a popular multi-decker sandwich, made of
three slices of toast and filled with sliced chicken, mayonnaise,
lettuce, tomato and bacon and cut into four triangles.

6. Wrap/Rolled Sandwiches

Wraps are sandwiches in which the fillings are wrapped, like a


Mexican burrito, in a large flour tortilla of similar flatbread. They
may be served whole or cut in half if large

 HOT SANDWICHES

1. Regular Hot Sandwiches

Simple hot sandwiches consist of hot fillings, usually meats but sometimes
fish, grilled vegetables, or other hot items, between two slices of bread.
They may also contain items that are not hot, such as a slice of tomato or
raw onion on a hamburger.

2. Hot Open-Faced Sandwich

Open-faced sandwiches are made by placing buttered or unbuttered bread


on bread on a serving plate, covering it with hot meat or other filling and
topping with a sauce, gravy, cheese, or other topping. This type of sandwich
is eaten with a knife and fork.

3. Grilled Sandwiches

Grilled sandwiches, also called toasted sandwiches, are simple sandwiches


that are buttered on the outside and browned on the griddle, in a hot oven, or
in a Panini grill (see sidebar). Sandwiches containing cheese are popular for
grilling

4. Deep Fried Sandwiches

Deep-fried sandwiches are made by dipping sandwiches in beaten egg


and sometimes in bread crumbs, and then deep-fry..

FILLINGS AND SPREADS FOR SANDWICHES.


Sandwich Fillings
The filling is the heart of the sandwich. It is place between or on top of bread.
It provides flavor and body to the sandwich.
TYPES OF FILLINGS
1. Dry Fillings- refers to ingredients such as sliced or cooked meat, poultry and
cheese.
2. Moist Fillings – refers to ingredients mixed with salad dressing or mayonnaise.

Here are fillings you may use separately or in combination.


Meat and Poultry
Meats used as fillings should be cooked, covered and refrigerated. Slice just
before the sandwich is to be prepared to avoid drying out and lose flavor. Thinly
sliced meats are more tender and juicy than thickly sliced.
1. Beef products- sliced roast beef, hamburger patties, steaks , corned beef.
2. Pork products- Roast pork, barbeque pork, ham , bacon.

3. Poultry- Turkey breast, chicken breasts.


4. Sausage Products- salami, frankfurters, bologna, liver wurst, luncheon meats,
grilled sausages.

ahead, the slices should remain covered until ready to use:
• Sandwich cheeses - cheddar types, Swiss types, provolone, cream cheese,
process cheese, cheese spreads.

Fish and shellfish


Most seafood fillings are highly perishable and should be left chilled at all times.
• Seafood Fillings- tuna, sardines, smoked salmon, shrimp, anchovies, fried fish,
grilled or pan fried fish fillets.

3. They also add moisture.

• Butter
Butter protects the bread from moisture, used soft butter to spread on
bread. You may soften butter by whipping in a mixer or by simply letting it
stand at room temperature. You may use margarine as a substitute or a
flavored butter.

• Mayonnaise
Mayonnaise is often preferred to butter as a spread because it contributes
more flavor but sandwiches made with mayonnaise should be served
immediately or refrigerated at once and kept refrigerated until served.

Creative sandwich preparation


Sandwiches should be attractively served on plates for individual serving
or on platters for multiple serving. The plate or platters can be decorated with
suitable ingredients to enhance the overall presentation.
Attractive presentation makes a garnish tray more appealing so you should learn
the techniques for creating a balanced, colorful and appetizing buffet arrangement.
Garnishes that complement sandwiches such as a variety of olives, peppers and
pickles add color and texture to the tray. Arranging a bed of greens offers a festive
and inviting cold tray presentation for any kind of event.
- Spread leaf lettuce on a tray, decorate the tray edges with the top curly
part of the leaves the base of the leaves point toward the center of the
tray. This creates a decorative bed for the sandwiches and garnishes.
- Spear the center of each sandwiches with a long toothpick if the
sandwiches are layered, such as club sandwiches or slices of
submarine sandwiches. The pick keeps the sandwich together on the
tray and makes them neater for guests to select, so the sandwich won’t
fall apart when someone picks it up.
- Arrange the sandwiches by the filling, with the contents exposed to
make sandwich selection more obvious.
- Sandwich quarters should be arranged with cut edge of the sandwich
pointing up at the viewer.
- Arrange finger sandwiches in a spiral, or setting up the sandwiches in
rows in the tray, with a row of garnishes between each row of
sandwiches.
- Place vegetarian sandwiches on a separate tray from sandwich made
with meat products.
- Handle food picks carefully. Remove food picks before giving
sandwiches to children or impaired adult.
- Plate pinwheel sandwiches in a circular design on a platter with the pin
wheel filling facing upward to show off the colors of the ingredients.

Store Sandwiches
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:
1. store sandwiches hygienically at the proper temperature; and
2. keep sandwiches in appropriate conditions to maintain
freshness and quality.

Proper storage for sandwiches

33
LM -Cookery Grade 9

Storing sandwiches is one of the most important activities after preparation


wherein they are to be kept properly to avoid spoilage. The most important
principles for sandwich safety are keeping temperatures cool and avoiding
cross contamination. Remember the basic formula 4-40-140 which means
perishable foods should spend no more than 4hours at a temperature between
40 and 140°F. By the end of 4 hours bacteria may have multiplied to unsafe
levels, so food that has sat out at room temperature for two hours and then
been returned to the refrigerator has only another two hours of room
temperature shelf life left unless it has been cooked again.

- Some sandwich ingredients and fillings should be cooked, covered in a


separate airtight container, refrigerate until ready to use.
- Keep bread tightly wrapped and in moisture proof wrapping. This stops
it from drying and guards against picking up odors. It should be away
from ovens and hot equipment.
- If bread must be kept more than one day, it may be frozen thaw,
without unwrapping.
- Wrap sandwiches with wax paper, paper napkins plastic wraps or
aluminum foil to keep them in good condition.
- To keep a number of unwrapped sandwiches just place a damp towel
in a shallow pan and cover with wax paper. Arrange layers of
sandwiches with wax paper between each layer. Put wax paper over
the sandwiches and cover it with a damp towel. Keep the sandwiches
in the refrigerator until serving time.
- Refrigerate sandwiches for as long as possible if there will be a time
between making and serving. Cover each tray with wax paper or cling
wrap to prevent the sandwiches from drying out.
- All sandwiches should be stored at recommended chill temperatures
0.5°C, soon after packing
- Packing must be clearly labeled with the product description, use by
date and storage requirement.

Storing Techniques
1. Wrapping – to draw, fold and cover a sandwich
2. Packaging Material – used to package sandwich like box, plastic, container
3. Cold Storage – the process of preserving Perishable food on a large scale by
at a low temperature or above the freezing point (0 0C or 320F)
4. Chilling – to refrigerate or to reduce the temperature of food
5. Freezing – Subjecting food to temperature below freezing point (0 0C or 320F)
6. Refrigeration – Subjecting food to temperature (4 0C or 400F)

Reasons for eating desserts and sweets


• Dessert balances out a meal and gives “closure” to the meal.
43
LM -Cookery Grade 9

• Eating dessert is an opportunity to experience different flavors and


textures that you cannot get in other foods like vegetables, meats, and fruits.
• Dessert can be an opportunity to be creative. You can make interesting
mixtures that you otherwise may not have thought of.

Classification/types of desserts and their characteristics A.


Fruits

The simplest dessert and one of the best are fruits because they are nutritious,
appetizing, and easy to prepare and serve.

Characteristics of good fruit desserts:


 appetizing aroma
 simple
 slightly chilled

B. Cheese

Cheese is another excellent dessert that is ready to serve. It is made in all


parts of the world from a variety of milks from cow, goat and sheep. Cheese
differs depending on the kind of milk used, the kinds of cheesemaking
procedures, the seasonings and the ripening processes also distinguish its
variety. Each variety has a definite character, a special appeal and particular
uses.

44
LM -Cookery Grade 9

The three general types of cheese based on consistency are:


1. Soft
a. unripened cheese
b. ripened by bacteria
2. Semi – hard
a. ripened by mold
b. ripened by bacteria
3. Hard
a. with gas holes
b. without gas holes
C. Gelatin Dessert

These are easily prepared, economical and vary in many ways. Gelatin is
marketed in two forms. First, the unsweetened, granular type that must be
softened in water before use, and the fruit gelatin to which flavor, color, and
sugar have already been added.

D. Custard

Baked and soft custards vary in so many ways. Creamy, delicate, baked
custards may be served in their baking cups or may be unmolded and served
with fruit garnishes or with dessert sauces. Characteristics of baked
custard

 firmness of shape
 smooth, tender texture
 rich and creamy consistency
 excellent flavor

Characteristics of soft custard


45
LM -Cookery Grade 9

 velvety smooth texture


 rich flavor
 has pouring consistency of heavy cream

E. Puddings

Puddings are relatively simple to prepare and vary with sauces. These are
classified as:

1. Cornstarch pudding, sometimes called blancmange


2. Rice pudding
3. Bread pudding

Characteristics of Pudding
 attractive appearance
 excellent consistency
 well – blended flavor
 firmness of shape
 an accompanying sauce to add interest

F. Fruit Cobblers

These are not fruit pies. They have a depth of two or three inches and are
topped with biscuit dough rather than being made with pie crust. They may be
served either hot or cold.

G. Frozen Desserts

46
LM -Cookery Grade 9

1. Ice cream- smooth frozen mixture of milk, cream, sugar, flavorings and
sometimes eggs.

2. Sherbet and Ices – made from fruit juices, water and sugar. American
sherbet contains milk and cream and sometimes egg white. The egg
whites increase smoothness and volume. Ice contains only fruit juice
water, sugar and sometimes egg white.

3. Frozen Soufflés and Frozen Mousses

Made like chilled mousses and Bavarians, whipped cream, beaten egg
whites or both are folded to give lightness and allow to be still frozen in an
ordinary freezer.

Outcome 2
Prepare desserts and sweet sauces

At the end of this lesson, students are expected to:


1. identify ingredients for desserts;
2. select and prepare sweet sauces;
3. prepare variety of desserts and sauces using sanitary practices; and
4. follow workplace safety procedures.

There are a wide variety of ingredients that may be used in the preparation
and cooking of cold and hot desserts. Some of the most common ingredients
include:
Ingredients needed in preparing desserts and sweet sauces

Sugar
The common element linking virtually all desserts is sugar. It may be used to
sprinkle over fruit, beaten into egg yolks for custard or into whites for a meringue.
Many desserts use sugar syrup, which involves boiling sugar and water to the
desired temperature.

Gelatine
Gelatine is used to set many cold moulded desserts. It is the basis for jellies and is
also used to set creams and mousses.

Egg yolks
Egg yolks may be mixed with flavourings, sugar and cream or milk to
make custard or they may be whisked together over hot water to create a
sabayon.

Egg whites
When raw egg whites are beaten, air is trapped in the mixture in the form of
bubbles. Egg whites beaten to soft peaks will support soufflés and
mousses while whites beaten to firm peaks are suitable for meringues.

Fruit
Ripe perfect fruit provides the basis for many desserts, with very little effort
needed to make an attractive colourful display.
Fruit may be pureed, baked or poached and can then be used for pies, soufflés
and puddings.

Cream
This ingredient is often used as a decoration or accompaniment for both
cold and hot desserts, but may also be used as one of the recipe
ingredients.
Whipped cream may also be used as an effective layer for trifle.
Cream may be combined with rice, sugar and milk to make a delicious rice
pudding.

48
LM -Cookery Grade 9

Batters
This simple mixture of flour and water is used to make crepes and pancakes.
Batter is also used to coat fruit for fritters.

Nuts
Nuts are available whole, ground, roasted or caramelised. They are an
important part of dessert cookery as they provide flavour for creams and
ice creams.

Chocolate
Chocolate may be melted to easily blend into fillings and batters. It can also
be poured over desserts such as cakes and puddings. When melted
chocolate is cooled it can be shaped and moulded into many attractive
decorations.

Quality
Many recipes will specify the type and quality of the ingredients required. It is
important that you observe these requirements if you are to achieve quality desserts

Quality points to look for when selecting dessert ingredients


Ingredients Quality points
Sugar • Granulated sugar is used in most recipes.
• Castor sugar is best for meringues and some cakes because it
dissolves more easily.
• Confectioner's sugar or icing sugar is used mostly for dusting the
tops of desserts.
• Brown sugar is commonly used in hot sauce as it produces a
lovely rich caramel flavour.

Gelatine

• Many desserts are prepared using


commercial leaf or powdered gelatine.
• Gelatines may be plain or flavoured and
coloured for effect.
Egg yolks
 Take eggs out of the refrigerator prior to use so
they are at room temperature. This way they will
whisk up better and incorporate more air.

49
LM -Cookery Grade 9

Egg whites
 Egg whites should be fresh and grade a quality.
• They may be purchased in bulk frozen or you
may freeze them in small quantities if you have
excess.
• If egg whites have not been cleanly divided and
contain traces of yolk, they will not whip up to
satisfactory foam. A pinch of salt helps the whites
to whip up better.

Cream
 The characteristics of cream will differ according to whether it
is pure cream, double cream, reduced cream or
cream that has had a stabiliser or gelatine added
to it to make the texture seem thicker and
improve the whipping qualities.
• Creams vary in taste and texture so choose
according to recipe specifications.
• Used only pasteurised cream.

• Pay particular attention to use-by dates.

Batters should be made up from the fresh ingredients.


Batters 
 Batter is often rested at room temperature after it is made to
reduce its elasticity so that it flows more freely over the pan.
Batters can be flavoured with vanilla and other spices.

Nuts  Nuts may be purchased natural or blanched


 Freshness is always important. Keep nuts well wrapped and store
in refrigerator to prevent the oils in the nuts becoming rancid.

50
LM -Cookery Grade 9

If you require toasted nuts, toast them yourself to ensure the nuts
are fresh in the first place.

Chocolate
 Chocolate is available in various types, namely bitter sweet, semi
sweet, white, dark and milk chocolate.
 Milk and white chocolate because of their milk content are more
difficult to work with than dark chocolate.

Sweet Sauces sauce - a flavored liquid blend of ingredients that adds flavor and
enhances the appearance of the food.

fudge - a soft confection made of butter, sugar, chocolate.


Sauces can give an entirely different appearance, flavor, color, and moisture to
desserts.
Kinds and Varieties of Sauces
1. Rich sauce is well suited to a simple dessert.
2. Light sauce is suited to a rich dessert.
3. Hot fudge is a delightful contrast to a cold cornstarch pudding or to vanilla ice
cream.
4. Hot sauces are made just before they are to be used.
5. Cold sauces are cooked ahead of time, then cooled, covered and put in the
refrigerator to chill.

Thickening Agents for Sauces


Thickening agents improve the quality of the sauces.
1. starch 5. grains
2. cream 6. cornstarch
3. eggs
4. rice flour
51
LM -Cookery Grade 9

Most dessert sauces fall into one of three categories:


1. Custard Sauces
Vanilla custard sauce, Chocolate or other flavor may be added to
create varieties.
2. Fruit Purees
These are simply purees of fresh or cooked fruits, sweetened with
sugar. Other flavorings and spices are sometimes added.
3. Syrups
Includes such products as chocolate sauce and caramel sauce.

Guidelines in Preparing Vanilla Custard Sauce


1. Use clean, sanitized equipment and follow procedure.
2. When combining the egg yolks and sugar, whip the mixture as soon as
the sugar is added. Letting the sugar and egg yolks stand together
without mixing creates lumps.
3. Scald milk before combining with the yolks.
4. Slowly beat the hot milk into the beaten eggs and sugar.
5. Place bowl with egg mixture in a pan of simmering water and stir
constantly to prevent curdling.
6. To test for doneness, the mixture lightly coats the back of the spoon.
7. Immediately cool the sauce by setting the pan or bowl in ice water. Stir
occasionally to cool evenly.
8. If the sauce curdles, immediately stir in one (1) to two (2) ounces cold
milk, transfer the sauce to a blender, and blend at high speed.

Storage of Sauces
Sauces should be kept in airtight containers and stored in a cool dry place
away from moisture, oxygen, light and pests. Food made with starches that
contain egg, milk, cream and other dairy products are prone to bacterial
contamination and to food- borne illness. Sauces made with these ingredients
should be kept out of the temperature danger zone. Thickened sauce should also
be prepared, served and stored with caution. These products should be stored in
the refrigerator and never left to stand at room temperature too long.

Learning Outcome 3
Plate/present desserts

At the end of this lesson, students are expected to:


1. identify the accompaniments of desserts;
2. present desserts attractively; and
3. identify factors to consider in plating and presenting desserts.

Accompaniments, Garnishes and Decorations for Desserts


Dessert Syrup
Flavored simple syrup use to moisten cakes. Flavorings maybe
extracts like vanilla, liquors like rum. Add flavorings after the syrup has cold,
flavor may lost if added to hot syrup. Lemon or orange rind may also add flavor to
syrup.
Cream Anglaise
Stirred vanilla custard sauce; consist of milk, sugar, egg yolks and vanilla
stirred over low heat until lightly thickened.

Pastry Cream
Contains starch as well as eggs, resulting in a much thicker and more
stable product. It is used as a cake and pastry fillings for cream pies and
pudding. With additional liquid, it is used as custard sauce.

Custards
Consist of milk, sugar, eggs and flavorings. (Whole eggs are used for greater
thickening power). Used as pie fillings, as a dessert by itself and as a basis for many
bake puddings.
Art of Dessert Plating
Desserts should turn heads in the dining room. Garnishing and plating desserts
shouldn't be an afterthought. It should be an integral part of how you build your
recipe.

4 Garnishes that add attraction

1. FRUIT GARNISH

60
LM -Cookery Grade 9

2. NUT GARNISH

3. CHOCOLATE GARNISH

4. COOKIE GARNISH

Guidelines in plating dessert:


1. Make garnishes edible. Everything on the dessert plate should be edible
and delicious.

2. Keep it clean and simple. Don't crowd the plate. If your dessert is
beautiful, it shouldn't need a lot of garnishes. And keep the rim of the plate
clear, so the servers aren't touching the food when they place the desserts
in front of the customers.

61
LM -Cookery Grade 9

3. Make your garnishes relate to the dessert on the plate. The only time
you should garnish with fresh mint is if you're serving mint ice cream. Don't
put it on there just because you think the dessert needs color. If you have a
brown dessert, like apples in puff pastry, then make sure all of those
elements are executed well—puff pastry should look beautiful and crisp.

4. Layer flavors and textures in your dessert. Textures and flavors hit the
palate at different times. Ask yourself, "How can I make this better?" If the
answer is a little lemon zest, then add it as a garnish. All the components
on the plate should build on the dessert, making it better.

5. Try different plates—various sizes and shapes. The right plate can add or
enhance the theme really well.

Plating and presenting tips and techniques)


There are many factors and techniques to consider in food plating that affect the
overall appearance of a dessert. Applying one of the tips may enhance
presentation.
1. The plate – when plating desserts, the choice of plate is critical to the final
presentation. Remember, the plate is the frame of the presentation. There
are many sizes, shapes, and colors available. Choosing the right size of
plate is important because food should not be crowded onto the plate.

2. Color - always consider color as an important part of plate presentation.


Always try to have a variety of colors on the plate.

• Green is fresh and cool, and can be soothing.


• Red is passion and excitement.
• Black is sophisticated and elegant.
• Blue is a natural appetite suppressant, since it can make food look
unappetizing.
3. Texture - texture is critical to food presentation, as well as enjoyment.
Contrasting hard and soft, smooth and coarse, adds visual interest to your
food, and it will enhance your customers' enjoyment to the food.

4. Keep things clean


Remember that neatness counts. Food should be
contained within the rim of the plate, yet it should not be crowded in
the center. Take a look at the plate and ask yourself if it is pleasing
to the eye. It should not look sloppy and dirty.
5. Garnish to Impress
Garnishes and decorations can enhance your plate
presentation. Choose garnishes that are appropriate to the ingredients.
For example, using a chocolate curls for chocolate cake.

Here are some other techniques to keep in mind when garnishing:

• Never decorate a plate with something inedible


• Ensure the garnish complements and enhances the dish.

62
LM -Cookery Grade 9

• Choose garnishes that are the correct size; they should be easy to eat.

Review of Lesson 1 (Learning Outcome 3)


A. Think and Pair
Direction: Answer the following questions and discuss your answer
with your seatmate.
1. What are the important factors to be considered in plating and
presenting desserts?
2. How do you plate desserts?
3. Why do we do the proper plating of desserts before presenting
them to the guest?

Learning Outcome 4
Store desserts
At the end of the lesson, students are expected to store/package desserts
Storing cold and hot desserts
As many desserts contain egg and dairy products, they present a potential health hazard
if not stored properly.

Remember: proper storage means cooled desserts must be covered with plastic or placed
in lidded containers before storing in the cool room.

Observe the following guidelines:


• Desserts containing uncooked eggs should be handled with extreme care, as raw egg is
a medium in which dangerous bacteria such as salmonella can thrive. This
means you need to be really careful with foods like chocolate mousse and uncooked
cheesecakes that contain egg whites for aeration.
• Egg custards contain protein, which provides good food for bacteria. If custards are not
heated and cooled properly and quickly, bacteria that are present in the custard
can grow quickly to dangerous numbers.
• Any dessert that is not required for immediate consumption must be cooled rapidly and
stored in the cool room until required.

• If you plan to keep a pre-prepared dessert hot until service, make sure that the
temperature of the food is over 65oC. Never leave an egg mixture in a Bain-Marie
for any length of time. Any dessert that has been kept hot in the Bain-Marie for a while
should be discarded at the end of service.

• If milk and cream are used in desserts like trifle and custards, they must not be left to
stand at room temperature for any length of time. They should be kept in the refrigerator
until the last possible moment to prevent the risk of food poisoning.

• Many desserts have a limited storage life. Make sure you check with your supervisor and
follow organisational requirements.

Lesson 2
Package Prepared Foods

At the end of this lesson, you are expected to perform the following:
1. select packaging materials; and 2 package
food items.

This lesson describes the skills and knowledge required to package and
label prepared foodstuffs for storage and transportation. It requires the ability to
check the quality of food and select correct packaging materials.

Learning Outcome 1
Select Packaging Materials

65
LM -Cookery Grade 9

At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:


1. give the meaning of packaging, its importance and
functions; and
2. select appropriate packaging material.

Food packaging - is enclosing the food in a material for physical,


chemical, biological protection and tampering resistance. It provides
nutrition information on the food being consumed.

The main aims of packaging are to keep the food in good condition
until it is sold and consumed, and to encourage customers to purchase
the product. Correct packaging is essential to achieve both these
objectives.

• Packaging should provide the correct environmental conditions for food


starting from the time food is packed until the time of consumption. A good
package should therefore perform the following functions:
• Provide a barrier against dirt and other contaminants thus keeping the
product clean
• Prevent losses. For example, packages should be securely closed to
prevent leakage
• Protect food against physical and chemical damage. For example the
harmful effects of air, light, insects, and rodents.
Each product has its own needs
• Package design should provide protection and convenience in handling and
transport during distribution and marketing
• Help the customers to identify the food and instruct them how to use it
correctly
• Persuade the consumer to purchase the food
• Cluster or group together small items in one package for efficiency.
Powders and granular materials need containment.
• Marketing - The packaging and labels can be used by marketers to
encourage potential buyers to purchase the product.
• Correct packaging prevents any wastage (such as leakage or deterioration)
which may occur during transportation and distribution.
Types of Packaging materials
In many developing countries the most commonly used food packaging materials
include:

• Leaves
• vegetable fibres
• wood
• papers, newsprint
• earthenware
• glass
• plastics
• metals

Leaves

Banana leaves are often used for wrapping certain types of food (e.g.
suman). Corn husk is used to wrap corn paste or unrefined block sugar, and
cooked foods of all types are wrapped in leaves. They do not however protect the

66
LM -Cookery Grade 9

food against moisture, oxygen, odors or micro-organisms, and therefore, not


suitable for long-term storage.

Vegetable Fibres
These include bamboo, banana, coconut, and cotton fibres. These natural
materials are converted into yarn, string or cord which will form the packaging
material. These materials are very flexible, have some resistance to tearing, and
are lightweight for handling and transportation. Being of vegetable origin, all of
these materials are biodegradable and to some extent re-usable.

As with leaves, vegetable fibres do not provide protection to food which


has a long shelf-life since they offer no protection against moisture pick-up,
micro-organisms, or insects and rodents.

Vegetable fiber basket

Wood

Wooden shipping containers have traditionally been used for a wide range
of solid and liquid foods including fruits, vegetables, tea and beer. Wood offers
good protection, good stacking characteristics and strength. Plastic containers,
however, have a lower cost and have largely replaced wood in many
applications. The use of wood continues for some wines and spirits because the
transfer of flavour compounds from the wooden barrels improves the quality of
the product.

Wooden crate

Paper

Paper is an inexpensive packaging material. It is however highly absorptive,


fairly easily torn, and offers no barrier to water or gases.

The degree of paper re-use will depend on its former use, and therefore
paper that is dirty or stained should be rejected. Newsprint should be used only
as an outer wrapper and not be allowed to come into direct contact with food, as
the ink used is toxic.

Earthenware

Earthenware pots are used worldwide for storing liquids and solid foods
such as curd, yoghurt, beer, dried food, and honey. Corks, wooden lids, leaves,
wax, plastic sheets, or combinations of these are used to seal the pots.

Glass

Glass has many properties which make it a popular choice as a packaging material:

• Glass is able to withstand heat treatments such as pasteurization and sterilization.


• Does not react with food.
• Protects the food from crushing and bruising
• Resistant to moisture, gases, odors and microorganisms

67
LM -Cookery Grade 9

• Re-usable, re-sealable and recyclable


• Transparent, allowing products to be displayed. Coloured glass may be used either to
protect the food from light or to attract customers.

Disadvantages of using glass as packaging materials

• glass is heavier than many other packaging materials and this may lead to higher
transport costs
• it is easy to fracture, scratch and break if heated or cooled too quickly
• potentially serious hazards may arise from glass cracks or fragments in the food.

Preparation of glass containers

• Inspection
• Washing.
• Rinsing..
• Sterilization.
• Sealing and capping
• Cooling

Plastics

The use of various plastics for containing and wrapping food depends on
what is available. Plastics are extremely useful as they can be made in either soft
or hard forms, as sheets or containers, and with different thickness, light
resistance, and flexibility. The filling and sealing of plastic containers is similar to
glass containers.

Flexible films are the most common form of plastic. Generally, flexible films
have the following properties:

• Cost is relatively low.


• Good barrier properties against moisture and gases.
• Heat sealable to prevent leakage of contents.
• Have wet and dry strength.
• Easy to handle and convenient for the manufacturer, retailer, and consumer.
• Little weight to the product.
• Fit closely to the shape of the product, thereby wasting little space during storage and
distribution.

Metal

Metal cans have a number of advantages over other types of containers:

• Metal cans provide total protection of the contents.


• Metal cans are tamper proof.
68
LM -Cookery Grade 9

• Metal cans are convenient for presentation.

Disadvantages of metal food packaging materials:

• heavier than other materials, except glass, and therefore have higher transport costs
• the heat treatment associated with the use of metal cans is not suitable for small-
scale production.

Learning Outcome 2
Package Food items

At the end of the lesson, you are expected to:


1. package food items in compliance with Occupational Health and Safety
Procedures;
2. adopt appropriate packaging method according to enterprise standards;
and
3. label foods according to industry standards.

Food Safety on Storing and Transporting Foods


Food Packaging has been defined by Paine (1962) as the “art science
and technology of preparing goods for transport and sale”. More specifically, it is
a way of making sure that a product reaches the end user in good condition at
the least cost to the producer. In effect, a packaging material provides the means
of transporting a product from one place to another with maximum protection at
the least cost
Food is packed in terms of quality, shelf life, microbial condition and portion
control. Spoilage of food is caused by poor packaging of food. Below are some
other factors in the spoilage of food:
a. pH of food- This simply indicates the inverse amount of
hydrogen ion available in the food system. This is oftentimes
associated with acidity of food. Thus, foods with high amounts
of hydrogen ion have low pH and this is considered to have
acidic taste. For instance, green mangoes have generally lower
pH (Ph below 4.0) and therefore have high acidity.

b. Moisture content – This is related to the physical state of the


food itself. Products with very high moisture could be those in
liquid form, while those with very low free moisture could be
dried or frozen. This product component is very important
relative to food spoilage. The higher the moisture content, the
greater the chances for microbial growth and chemical changes.

c. Amount and nature of fat content – The chemical processes


also accelerate breakdown of fats on food. Thus, products with
high fat content like oils, butter, soft cheese, fried foods and the
like tend to spoil fast when inadequately packaged. Exposure to

69
LM -Cookery Grade 9

the atmosphere causes rapid oxidation breaking down the fat


into free fatty acids in food. The faster the breakdown, the
greater the chances of development of rancidity.

d. Enzyme system –It is a chemical processes like fermentation


and hydrolysis which occur in high moisture food, especially in
the presence of oxygen of ambient tropical temperature. When
foods undergo these processes, they change in texture, flavor,
odor and color. Under these conditions, the product may already
be considered spoiled.

e. Initial Microbial load – This is the number of microorganism


already present in food prior packaging.

Classification of packaging according to use:


As a primary package – This type of package is meant to directly contain
the product. Hence, it gets in direct contact with the goods. Thus, this
package is expected to meet all the requirements for safety and protection
of the consumers like tetra packs or canned food packages
As a secondary package – This is utilized to contain a specified number
of unit packs. Thus, it may contain a dozen tetra packs or 2 dozens of tin
cans or a gross of candies and so on. Its major function is to allow for the
unit packs to be carried in bulk.
As a tertiary package – When transporting in bulk, the secondary
package may have to be packed again for greater protection and for bulk
transfer. Use of tertiary package is normally for bulk transport or storage in
large warehouses.
Occupational and health safety procedures in packaging foods Steps
on how to package meat before freezing.

1. Divide your meat into your set serving sizes


2. Get a plastic zip bag big enough to hold the portion size plus a little extra room for the
meat to expand from the freezing process.
3. Put the meat into the bag, then flatten.
4. Squeeze as much of the air as you can get out, then close the zip.
5. Date the bag so you know how long it's been in your freezer

Methods of Food Packaging


Home Canned Foods - one of the oldest and most common methods of
food packaging in homes is the use of home canning. Fruits and
vegetables are placed in glass jars and sealed in the jars by heating the
jars and then placing a rubber stopped jar top on the jar. The seals also
need to be airtight to prevent the growth of bacteria.
Freezing and chilling food - another common method of packaging food
is freezing and chilling .Freezing can be done with a variety of methods.
Most often, it is vegetables that are frozen, although berries and other
fruits can also lend themselves to being frozen.
70
LM -Cookery Grade 9

Canned foods - canning foods as a method of food processing have been


around, foods that are canned commercially are cooked prior to being placed in
the can in order to prevent E. coli contamination. Canned foods come in a wide
variety, ranging from meat to vegetables to fruit.
Foil Packaging - one of the innovative methods of commercial food packaging is
foil wrapping. Foil wraps are often pouches that are filled and then the bottom
and top of the pouch is sealed with a heat seal similar to those used with
commercial frozen packaging. Foil packaging allows the foods to be sealed in
the package without losing any residual moisture that may still be in the food. The
best foods to package in this manner are usually dried fruits, baked goods or
grain products.
What must appear on the label?
The following must appear on the label:
• name under which the product is sold
• list of ingredients
• quantity of certain ingredients
• net quantity
• date of minimum durability
• any special storage instructions or conditions of use
• name or business name and address of the manufacturer or packager, or of a seller
within the European Union
• place of origin of the foodstuff if its absence might mislead the consumer to a
material degree
• instructions for use where necessary
• beverages with more than 1.2% alcohol by volume must declare their actual
alcoholic strength
