COMPETENCIES
At the start of your journey in learning Cookery, the Personal Entrepreneurial

Competencies and entrepreneurial mindsets were introduced. In this concept
review, you will be reminded of these lessons and you get to assess whether or not
you have the competencies found among entrepreneurs. In addition, a brief lesson
on the Business Environment and Idea Generation is provided to help contextualize
how your skills might be useful for an entrepreneurial venture. Read on to find out!

CONCEPT REVIEW
Entrepreneur
An entrepreneur is comprehensively defined by Zimmerer & Scarborough
(2005) as someone who “creates a new business in the face of risk and uncertainty
for the purpose of achieving profit and growth by identifying significant opportunities
and assembling the necessary resources to capitalize on them” (p.3). They are the
ones who act on their business ideas.
Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies

There have been many studies to characterize “the entrepreneurial
personality”; although there is no isolated set of traits that guarantee success, there
were identified behaviors found common to most successful entrepreneurs. There is
a well-known research on human behavior done by McClelland and McBer which
identified 10 behavioral patterns organized into three general clusters: the
achievement, planning, and power clusters (SERDEF, 2007; 1998). It was found out
that these behaviors were also typical entrepreneurial behaviors. The
entrepreneurial qualities, more known as the Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies
(PECs) are as follows:
Achievement Cluster
• Opportunity seeking – Entrepreneurs have a good eye for spotting business
opportunities and act on these opportunities appropriately.
• Persistence - Entrepreneurs do not easily give up in the face of obstacles. They
will take repeated or different actions to overcome the hurdles of business. This
includes making a personal sacrifice or extraordinary effort to complete a job.
• Commitment to work contract - Entrepreneur do their best to satisfy customers
and to deliver what is promised. They accept full responsibility for problems when
completing a job for customers.
• Risk-taking - Entrepreneurs are known for taking calculated risks and doing tasks
that are moderately challenging.
13
• Demand for efficiency and quality - Entrepreneurs see to it that the business
meets or exceeds existing standards of excellence and exerts efforts to improve
past performance and do things better. They set high but realistic standards.
Planning Cluster
• Goal setting - Entrepreneur knows how to set specific, measurable, attainable,
realistic, and time-bound (SMART) goals. It is easy for them to divide large goals
into short-term goals.
• Information seeking - Entrepreneur update themselves with new information
about her customers, the market, suppliers, and competitors. This is rooted to
their innate sense of curiosity.
• Systematic planning and monitoring - Entrepreneurs develop and use logical,
step-by-step plans to reach their goals. They monitor progress towards goals and
to alter strategies when necessary.
Power Cluster
• Persuasion and networking - Entrepreneurs know how to use the right strategies
to influence or persuade other people. They have naturally established a network
of people who they can turn to in order to achieve their objectives.
• Self-confidence - Entrepreneurs have a strong belief in themselves and their own
abilities. They have self-awareness and belief in their own ability to complete a
difficult task or meet a challenge.

Interpretation
A lower score means a ‘weak’ performance and a higher score translates to a
‘strong’ performance on a particular competency. A ‘weak’ performance should be
regarded as a challenge or an opportunity for improvement rather than a cause for
worry. Improving a competency entails enough determination, correct practice and
strategies, and time for maturation.

UNDERSTAND BUSINESS2:ENVIRONMENT & BUSINESS
OUTCOME
IDEAS
Business Environment and Market

The study of the business environment in a particular location has farreaching
and long-term effects on a small or micro enterprise’s viability. In fact, business
ideas and opportunities are partly shaped or determined by the business location.
Unless it is possible to migrate to more favorable locations, the ideas and
opportunities for business will oftentimes be delimited to the surrounding areas.
The business environment consists of both the tangible and intangible factors
that affect either the external or internal business operations. They may include the
land area available for economic zones, the physical layout and barriers such as
rivers, parks or lakes, and building obstructions as well as the transportation network;
all of which are considered tangible factors. They also include the demography of
clients and suppliers, the competitors in the locale/area and the available technology
for production. The intangible factors, on the other hand, include the sub-culture,
industry trends, economic and government activity or the political situations in the
area.

Natural and Physical Environment. This concerns the physical location of a

business’ store. The natural environment also pertains to the natural and man-made
structures that may enhance the beauty of the location, such as a park or a sea front
view, or serve as barrier to the location, such as a dump site or high rise structures
that obstruct a view. The living condition in an area also serves as a standard for the
ambience you want to create for your store.
There is also a phenomenon referred to as clustering, where a particular type of

product is offered within the same area. For instance, most guitar shops are clustered
along the intersection of V. Mapa and Aurora Avenue in Metro Manila; Filipino craft
stores crowd the area under the Quiapo bridge; or car accessories are found in
Banawe area.
The key word to have in mind when scanning the physical environment is the visibility
of your intended store to the potential clients.
Demography. This pertains to the number of people living in the area, their
age, gender, socio-economic status, family size, religion and even growth trends.
These are invaluable information that can help entrepreneurs in matching their
product to the target market, in deciding for the marketing strategy, pricing and
product packaging among others.
22
Culture. Culture or sub-culture, being the totality of the way of life, ideas and
customs of a set of people or society, primarily influence the types of products that
are acceptable to a particular locality. For example, the influence of the Japanese
culture gave rise to minimalist designs. A sub-culture also shapes the ‘emotional’
environment of an area. For instance, the feeling of ‘fear’ for a specific location may
serve as a barrier for a business; a place where one does not feel safe because of
the prevalence of crime will discourage entrepreneurs.
Changes in the lifestyle, which is brought about by changes in the population

demography and the economy, also affect a business. These lifestyle changes may
be the increase of women’s participation in the world of work, change in buying
patterns and shift in tastes.
Government Regulations. The laws and policies of the national and local
government units also influence the business operations. Some examples of policies
that directly affect entrepreneurs are the imposition or removal of taxes for products,
the establishment of economic zones and assistance in product labeling and
packaging of products. In addition, improvement of facilities and roads improve
transportation network that facilitates transfer of products from one area to another or
promotes accessibility for consumers.
Economy. This pertains to the management of resources and study of the

system of production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. A
country’s economy influences both the entrepreneurs and consumers as it relates to
the financial matters of business like taxes and interest rates and to the quality of life,
cost of utilities and services, among others. Even small scale entrepreneurs must
learn to study economic indicators to improve business forecasts, such as when to
buy certain materials and supplies, when to open a store or introduce new products
based on consumer spending, or when to hire employees. Some examples of
economic indicators include the (a) Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which increases
when a country’s economy is doing good; (b) Unemployment rate which indicates
that more unemployed people usually signal an economy getting worse; and (c)
Price Indexes and Inflation rates which determine the buying power of consumers.
23
The existing enterprises, who are either direct or indirect competitors, are also
part of the business environment. It is important to scout for products or services
that answer a similar need to what you intend to provide. Think of how you can
create a niche that will differentiate your product from the other businesses – either
in specifying a target market or in differentiating your product quality or price. The
key concept to think about is acquiring a reasonable market share despite of the
competition.
Technology. Technological changes are inventions based on the application of

science that create new product or process improvements. Some examples of
technological changes are mobile tools that enable online connection, new business
tools for analysis and database, social networks and modern, digital equipment.
These advances in technology result to efficiency and productivity at a lesser cost. It
can be observed that sending message through e-mail provides a cheaper and faster
means compared to hand-delivered mails (snail mails). An entrepreneur can benefit
from technological changes by identifying the appropriate technological solution
available in the area or locale.
At this point, it must be quite clear why an environment scanning of an area

considered as business site is helpful for the entrepreneur. In fact, the impact of the
factors in the business environment does not only include the business operation but
is even relevant at the start of the venture – during the business idea generation and
opportunity identification stage. A concise guide on how to spot and identify
business opportunities are provided in the following section. Keep reading!
Spotting and Identifying Business Opportunities
Spotting business opportunities is one of the most essential aspects of

entrepreneurship. An entrepreneur must have a keen eye for identifying
opportunities that can potentially turn into a good product or business venture. At the
same time, an entrepreneur should also know which opportunities to drop and which
ones to develop.
24
Idea Generation
The first step in identifying a good business opportunity is to look for many
opportunities. This is called the idea generation phase (SERDEF, 2007). The
following are good sources of business ideas (Hisrich, Peters, & Shepherd, 2008;
Looser & Schlapfer, 2001).

2. Everyday experiences, travel, and adventures
3. Suggestions from family members and friends
4. Problems that need solutions
5. Problems with existing products 6. Books, magazines, news
7. Observing, listening around you
Screening Business Ideas
Once you have generated a number of business opportunities and ideas, the
next step is to select and screen these. Though there can be many ways to do this, a
good way to proceed is to screen your ideas based on 1) your personality and
personal preferences and 2) the characteristics of a good business (SERDEF, 2007).
Consider the following criteria:
1. Personality and Personal Preferences

a. Personal Preference
b. Education, Skills, and Experience
c. Work Experience
d. Support from family and friends
2. Characteristics of a good business
a. Demand for Product
b. Availability of skills, raw materials, technology, and capital
c. Profitability
d. Sustainability

Learning Outcome 1 Clean, Sanitize and Store Kitchen Tools

and Equipment
At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:

1. recognize kitchen tools and equipment to be cleaned and sanitized;
2. identify the chemicals to be utilized in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen
tools and equipment;
3. prepare cleaning agents in accordance with the manufacture’s
instruction/procedure;
4. clean and sanitize kitchen tools and equipment; and
5. store cleaned kitchen tools and equipment.
Cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools and equipment must be part of

the standard operating procedures that make up your food safety
program. Improper cleaning and sanitizing kitchen surfaces allow
harmful microorganisms to be transferred from one food to another.
The following are list of cooking materials, kitchen utensils and equipment
that are commonly found in the kitchen.
30
Tools/Equipment Description
Cooking Materials
Aluminum is mostly used in the
kitchen and most popular because it
is lightweight, attractive and less
expensive. It requires care to keep it
shiny and clean. It also gives even
heat distribution no matter what heat
temperature you have. It is available
in sheet or cast aluminum. Since it is
a soft metal, the lighter gauges will
dent and scratch easily, making the
utensil unusable. Aluminum turns
dark when used with alkalis, such as
potatoes, beets, carrots and other
vegetables while acid vegetables like
tomatoes will brighten it.
Stainless Steel is the most popular

material used for tools and
equipment, but it is more expensive.
It is easier to clean and shine and will
not wear out easily. Choose those
with copper, aluminum or laminated
steel bottoms to spread heat and
keep the pot from getting heat dark
spots. Stainless steel utensils maybe
bought in many gauges, from light to
heavy.
31
Glass is use for salad making and

dessert but not practical for top or
surface cooking. Great care is
needed to ensure for long shelf life.
How to take care of Glass?
1. To remove stain, use 2 table
spoon of liquid bleach per cup
of water when soaking and
cleaning.
2. Use baking soda to remove
grease crust and boiled vinegar
as final rinse.
3. Use nylon scrub.
Cast Iron is durable but must be kept

oiled to avoid rusting. Salad oil with
no salt or shortening can be rubbed
inside and out and dried. Wash with
soap (not detergent) before using.
Double boiler is used when

temperature must be kept below
boiling, such as for egg sauces,
puddings, and to keep food warm
without overcooking.
Teflon is a special coating applied

inside aluminum or steel pots and
pans. It prevents food from sticking to
the pan.
It is easier to wash and clean, but
take care not to scratch the Teflon
coating with sharp instrument such as
knife or fork. Use wooden or plastic
spatula to turn or mix food inside.
32
Care of the Cooking Ware
After using any cookware, they must be allowed to cool before washing
and soaking to prevent accidental burns from handling and to prevent
damage. They should be free from all grease, food, etc. by washing them
using warm soapy water and rubbing them with a steel wool cleaner and rinse
thoroughly with warm water. Drying them using a cloth after washing may
preserve its appearance. If food or grease is badly burned on the surface of a
utensil, the pan should be filled with water and allowed to boil hard for five
minutes. This will loosen the burned food and the pan may be clean in the
usual manner.
Kitchen Tools
Can opener is used to open a food

containers.
Colanders also called a vegetable

strainer which are essential for
various tasks from cleaning
vegetables to straining pasta or
contents.
Plastic and Hard Rubber are used

for cutting and chopping. They are
dull than knives. Plastics are greatly
durable and cheap but may not last
long.
33
Cutting boards are wooden or

plastic board where meat, fruits and
vegetables are cut. Using plastic
cutting board is more sanitary than
wooden board as it does not absorb
food juices that can serve as medium
for bacterial growth.
Funnels – are used to fill jars, made

of various sizes of stainless steel,
aluminum, or of plastic.
Garlic Press is a kitchen tool which

is specifically designed for the
purpose of pulping garlic.
Graters are used to grate, shred,

slice and separate foods such as
carrots, cabbage and cheese.
34
Kitchen shears. They are practical

for opening food packages, cutting
tape or string or simply remove labels
or tags from items. Other cutting tools
such as box cutters are also handy
for opening packages.
Potato masher is used for mashing

cooked potatoes, turnips, carrots or
other soft cooked vegetables.
Rotary egg beater – used for beating

small amount of eggs or batter. The
beaters should be made of stainless
steel.
Scraper- a rubber or silicone tool

used to blend or scrape the food from
the bowl.
Serving spoons- a small, shallow

bowl on a handle used in preparing,
serving, or eating food.
35
Serving tongs used to grab and

transfer food items, poultry or meat
portions to a serving platter, hot deep
fryer, and plate. It gives you a better
grip especially when used with a
deep fryer, a large stock pot or at the
barbecue.
Spatula – is used to level off

ingredients when measuring and to
spread frostings and sandwich
fillings.
Spoons – solid, slotted, or perforated

which are made of stainless steel or
plastic. The solid ones are used to
spoon liquids over foods and to lift
foods, including the liquid out of the
pot.
Temperature scales – are used to

measure heat intensity. Different
thermometers are used for different
purposes in food preparation – for
meat, candy or deep-fat frying and
other small thermometers are hanged
or stand in ovens or refrigerators to
check the accuracy of the
equipment’s thermostat.
36
Whisks. It is used for blending,

mixing, whipping eggs or batter, and
for blending gravies, sauces, and
soups. The beaters are made of
looped, steel piano wires which are
twisted together to form the handle.
Wooden spoons are made of

hard wood which are used for
creaming, stirring, and mixing.
Measuring Tools
Measuring cup for liquid
ingredients – are commonly made
up of heat-proof glass and
transparent so that liquid can be
seen.
Household Scales – are used to

weigh large quantity of ingredients in
kilos, commonly in rice, flour, sugar,
legumes or vegetables and meat up
to 25 pounds.
37
Scoops or dippers – are used to

serve or scoop soft foods, such as
fillings, ice cream, and mashed
potato.
Measuring Spoons come in variety

of sizes, shapes, materials and
colors. These are used to measure
smaller quantities of ingredients
called for in the recipe like: 1
tablespoon of butter or 1⁄4 teaspoon
of salt.
Kinds of knives according to use:

French knife – or commonly called
as chief’s knife is used to chop, dice,
or mince food. Heavy knives have a
saber or flat grind.
Fruit and salad knife – is used to

prepare vegetables, and fruits.
38
Kitchen knives often referred to as

cook's or chef's tools, used for all
types of kitchen tasks such as peeling
an onion, slicing carrots, carving a
roast or turkey, etc.
Citrus knife –has a two-sided blade

and serrated edge. It is used to
section citrus.
Paring knife – is used to core, peel,

and section fruits and vegetables.
Blades are short, concave with hollow
ground.
Vegetable peeler is used to scrape

vegetables, such as carrots and
potatoes, and to peel fruits. The best
ones are made of stainless steel with
sharp double blade that swivels.
Equipment
Equipment may refer to a small electrical appliance, such as a mixer, or a
large, expensive, power-operated appliance such a range or a refrigerator.
Equipment like range, ovens, refrigerators (conventional, convection
and microwave) are mandatory pieces in the kitchen or in any food
establishment.
39
Refrigerators/freezers are necessary

in preventing bacterial infections from
foods. Most refrigerators have special
compartment for meat, fruits and
vegetables to keep the moisture content
of each type of food. Butter
compartment holds butter separately to
prevent food odors from spoiling its
flavor. Basically, refrigerator or freezer
is an insulated box, equipped with
refrigeration unit and a control to
maintain the proper inside temperature
for food storage.
Oven- a chamber or compartment used
for cooking, baking, heating, or drying.
Microwave ovens used for cooking or

heating food.
Blenders are used to chop, blend, mix,

whip, puree, grate, and liquefy all kinds
of food. A blender is a very useful
appliance. They vary in the amount of
power (voltage/wattage).
Care of Kitchen Tools and Equipment

Any kitchen tools and equipment will last long if given proper care. The stove,
sink and cabinets should be cleaned and sanitized regularly. The garbage
can should be kept covered, cleaned and emptied often. Small tools and
equipment such as paring and butcher knives, kettles, pots and other tools
should receive regular care by cleaning and sanitizing them after using. Warm
water will facilitate removing of grease. The use of vinegar added to water is
40
very good disinfectant and stain/grease remover. Be sure to air dry them
before storing because moist utensils will attract cockroaches and wet
shelves can develop disagreeable odor.
Factors that influence the cleaning process

• Soil – varying degrees of food soil will be deposited on the equipment
during production. These food soils will require complete removal
during the cleaning process and will affect the cleaning compound
used, along with the method of cleaning.
• Time – the longer a cleaning solution remains in contact with the

equipment surface, the greater the amount of food soil that is removed.
More time in contact with the soil reduces the chemical concentration
requirements.
• Temperature – soils are affected by temperature in varying degrees.

In the presence of a cleaning solution most soils become more readily
soluble as the temperature increases.
• Chemical concentrations – it varies depending on the chemical itself,

type of food soil, and the equipment to be cleaned. Concentration will
normally be reduced as time and temperature are increased.
• Mechanical force – is as simple as hand scrubbing with a brush or as

complex as turbulent flow and pressure inside a pipeline. This aids in
soil removal and typically reduces time, temperature and concentration
requirements.
• Water – minerals in hard water can reduce the effectiveness of some

detergents or a sanitizers. Water pH ranges generally from pH5-8.5.
However, highly acidic water may require additional buffering agents.
Water used for cleaning and sanitizing must be potable and pathogen
free.
Chemicals used in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools and

equipment.
Cleaning is the process of removing food and other types of soil from
a surface, such as a dish, glass, or cutting board. Cleaning is done with a
cleaning agent that removes food, soil, or other substances. The right
cleaning agent must be selected because not all cleaning agents can be used
on food-contact surfaces. (A food-contact surface is the surface of equipment
41
or utensil that food normally comes into contact.) For example, glass
cleaners, some metal cleaners, and most bathroom cleaners cannot be used
because they might leave an unsafe residue on the food contact surface. The
label should indicate if the product can be used on a food-contact surface.
The right cleaning agent must also be selected to make cleaning easy.
Cleaning Compound
1. Detergents. These are cleaning

agents, solvents or any substance used to
wash tablewares, surfaces, and equipment.
Example: soap, soap powders, cleaners,
acids, volatile solvents and abrasives.
2. Solvent Cleaners commonly referred to

as degreasers used on surfaces where
grease has burned on. Ovens and grills are
examples of areas that need frequent
degreasing. These products are alkaline
based and are formulated to dissolve
grease.
3. Acid Cleaners. Used
periodically in removing mineral
deposits and other soils that
detergents cannot eliminate such as
scale in washing machines and steam
tables, lime buildup on dishwashing
machines and rust on shelving. (Ex.:
phosphoric acid, nitric acid,etc.) These
products vary depending on the specific
purpose of the product.
4. Abrasives – are generally used

to remove heavy accumulations of soil
that are difficult to remove with
detergents, solvents and acids. These
products must be carefully used to
avoid damage to the surface being
cleaned.
42
Other chemicals used for cleaning and/or sanitizing kitchen

equipment and utensils are the following:
1. ammonia
2. dish washing liquid
3. chlorine
4. carbolic acid
5. timsen
6. disinfectants
7. soap

Are you ready to clean kitchen tools and equipment? Below
are procedures on how to wash dishes. Steps in Washing Dishes
1.) Wear rubber gloves if you have dry hands or other skin problem. If
you are wearing long sleeves, roll them up or put them under the gloves.
Wear aprons too.
2.) Scrape all the large pieces of food

on the dishes and place it in a compost
bin or garbage can.
44
3.) Stack the dishes in the proper order namely: glassware, silverware,
chinaware, and utensils. Stack them to the right of the sink so that work
progresses from right to left.
4.) Fill the sink with water and add a

considerable amount of detergent. The
hotter the water, the better it’s sanitizing
and greasecutting properties but use
tolerable heat (66oC (150oF) or above.) so
not to scald yourself. Use rubber gloves.
5.) Wash the lightest soiled items first. Start with glasses, cups, and
flatware. Soap each piece individually and rinse in hot water.
6.) Wash plates, bowls, and serving dishes. Remember to scrape

these items before washing. Soap each piece gently and individually and
rinse in hot water. Remember to keep an eye when you should change the
dish washing water.
7.) Wash pots and pans last. Soak them first.

Wash the pans thoroughly and don’t forget to clean
45
the bottoms. If anything was burnt or overcooked to pots or casserole

dishes, put a little extra soap and water in it and let it stand while you wash
the other dishes. Take note that any oil residue left will lead to burn food
during the next cooking session.
8.) Lay your dishes out on a rack to air-dry or wipe them clean with
a towel.
9.) There should be no visible matter and no

"greasy" feel. Run a hand over the dish to ensure
that they are thoroughly cleaned. If there are still
some grease remaining, consider rewashing the
item.
46
10.) Rinse out brush,

sponge and allow to dry.
Sterilize your equipment
often using boiling water
with bleach. When a sponge
or brush starts to smell
unpleasant, throw it away.
11.) Wipe down the sink and your tools. Wipe down the sink, dish
drainer, and dishpan. Any rags, dish cloths, or sponges need to be left out
to air dry, or thrown into the washing machine. Remember to replace
sponges and rags frequently.
Tips and warnings to observe in washing the dishes 

Wash glassware first, before greasy pots and pans.
• Rubber gloves will protect hands and manicures, and allow you to use
hotter water for washing and/or rinsing.
• Dishes may be hand dried with a clean cloth.
• Try adding a tablespoon of baking soda to soapy water to soften dirt while
cutting grease.
• Never dump sharp knives into soapy dishwater where they cannot be seen.
• Laundry detergents or automatic dishwater detergents should not be used
for hand washing dishes.
• Keep dishwashing liquid out of the reach of children.
Tips:
1. Dishes can be washed easily if you keep them under the water while
scrubbing them for particles to lift away. Bring the dish out of the water to
check for any missed spots.
2. Stacking a few dishes in the sink at a time allows dishes a few minutes of
soaking time while you wash another dish.
3. Try drying pots and pans with a paper towel to reduce residue from the
pan which causes staining the dishcloth.
4. Don’t soak aluminum while dishwashing for it may cause darkening.
47
Dish washing silverware can be tricky. Use a lint free cloth for drying
silverware.
Washing with the Dishwasher
Load it up.
Fill your dishwasher logically. Establish a routine, and stick with it for most
loads.
Things to consider: Many dishwashers have a variety of

spacing]s to accommodate large bowls, small bowls,
utensils, dishes, and plates of varying sizes—on the
bottom shelf. The top shelf is given to shorter items such
as glasses, mugs, jars, and long utensils such as
spatulas and stirring spoons.
Don't crowd
the dishes. Fill
your dishwasher
48
full, but not crammed—you'll maximize the cleaning capacity of your

dishwasher and minimize excessive water usage.
Add detergent. Fill the detergent dispenser with cleanser either liquid or
powder and close it up. o You can add extra cleanser in a secondary cup
should your dishes be excessively filthy.
o Add a rinsing agent to prevent spotting, if necessary.
Turn it on. Set the timer as necessary. A shorter time for lightly-soiled
dishes, or a longer time for heavilysoiled pots, pans, and dishes.
Dry the dishes. You can use a heated dry (but be careful of
plastic dishes or containers), or use air drying. Dishes will still
dry relatively quickly, as dishwasher water is usually heated
to 140°F.
How to Clean, Remove Stains, Sanitize, and Store Your Cutting Board
The kitchen cutting board gets a lot of use and

this means that it gets a lot of exposure to bacteria.
Proper cleaning of the cutting board is essential to
your good health. Whether you use a wood or a plastic
cutting board, you should clean and sanitize it after
every use.
Cleaning the Cutting Board
49
After you used the cutting board for slicing, dicing, or chopping all
kinds of neat goodies, use a metal scraper or spatula to scrape away
any remaining bits and pieces of food. Throw the scrapings into the
garbage disposal, garbage receptacle, or trash bin.
Scrub the board with hot, soapy water thoroughly. If your

dishwasher reaches a temperature of at least 165°F, then you can
probably place a high-density plastic cutting board into the dishwasher.
Moreover, if your dishwasher has an antibacterial cycle, use it to wash
the cutting board. Otherwise, scrub it by hand. Allow the board to air
dry.
Removing Stains from the Cutting Board

To remove stains from the cutting board, you can use the
following procedure: wet the stained area with water and sprinkle it
with vinegar, kalamansi and allow to melt undisturbed for twenty-four
hours. Stains can also better removed by using diluted bleaching agent
or natural acid like calamansi or vinegar.
Rinse the salt from the cutting board with clean water. Using the
salt and clean water, create a paste. Use a clean nylon scrubbing
sponge or a clean toothbrush to scour or scrub the paste on the
stained area of the cutting board. Rinse the area clean with fresh
water. Repeat the procedure to guarantee that you have removed all of
the stain. Rinse the board clean. Scrub the cutting board with hot,
soapy water and rinse with clean water. Allow it to air dry.
Sanitizing the Cutting Board
Plastic and wooden cutting boards can be sanitized using a

diluted liquid chlorine bleach solution. For this solution, combine one
teaspoon of bleach to one quart of water. Pour the solution onto the
entire surface area of the board and allow it to sit undisturbed for
several minutes. Rinse the board clean with water. Allow it to air dry or
use a clean cloth to dry it.
If you prefer, you may use a vinegar solution in place of the

bleach solution. Simply combine one part vinegar to five parts water.
Use this solution in the same manner as the one explained for the
bleach solution.
Storing the Cutting Board
50
Once the cutting board has completely dried, store it vertically or

in an upright position. This helps to avoid moisture from getting trapped
underneath the board and the accumulation of dust or grime.
Methods of Cleaning Equipment
• Foam – You use this to increase the contact

time of the chemical solutions to improve
cleaning with less mechanical force.
• High Pressure – used to increase mechanical force, aiding in soil

removal. In high pressure cleaning, chemical detergents are often
used along with an increase temperature to make soil removal more
effective.
• Clean In Place (CIP) – is utilized to clean the interior surfaces of tanks

and pipelines of liquid process equipment. A chemical solution is
circulated through a circuit of tanks and or lines then return to a
central reservoir allowing the chemical solution to be reused. Time,
temperature and mechanical force are manipulated to achieve
maximum cleaning.
51
• Clean Out of Place (COP) – is utilized to clean the parts of filters and
parts of other equipment. This requires disassembly for proper
cleaning. Parts removed for cleaning are placed in a circulation tank
and cleaned using a heated chemical solution and agitation.
• Mechanical – it normally involves the use of brush either by hand or a

machine such as a floor scrubber. Mechanical cleaning uses friction
for food soil removal.
Fundamental Cleaning Procedures

1. Scrape and Pre-rinse – soiled equipment surfaces are scraped and
rinsed with warm water to remove loose food soils.
2. Cleaning Cycle – the removal of residual food soils from equipment
surfaces is based on the manipulation of the four basic cleaning factors
and the method of cleaning. Typically, alkaline chemical solutions are
used for the cleaning cycle.
3. Rinse – rinse all surfaces with cold to hot water, depending on the
temperature of the cleaning cycle,to thoroughly remove all remaining
chemical solution and food soil residues.
4. Acid Rinse – a mild acid rinse of the equipment neutralizes any
alkaline residues left and removes any mineral soil present.
5. Sanitize – all equipment surfaces are rinsed or flooded with a sanitizing
agent. Both time and chemical concentration are critical for optimum
results.

Finally you’ve done the cleaning but ooops…. not so fast because after
cleaning the kitchen tools and equipment the next thing you will do is to
sanitize them. How? The next topic will lead you the ways….
The following topics are the methods of sanitizing kitchen tools and
equipment after cleaning them.
Proper sanitation of kitchen tools and equipment after cleaning them is

important in order to prevent contamination of foods that may cause
foodborne disease (also known as foodborne illness or food poisoning which
is any illness that results from eating contaminated food.) and to minimize the
56
chances of transmitting disease organism to the consumer by having bacteria-

free and safe processing, preparation, cooking, eating and storing utensils.
Harmful bacteria are the most common cause of food poisoning, but other
causes include viruses, parasites, toxins and contaminants. The organisms
that cause the most illnesses, hospitalizations, and deaths are:
• Salmonella  Norovirus
• Campylobacter
• Toxoplasma  E. coli O157
• Listeria
• Clostridium perfringens.
Sanitizing is done using heat, radiation, or chemicals. Heat and
chemicals are commonly used as a method for sanitizing in a restaurant than
radiation. The item to be sanitized must first be washed properly before it can
be properly sanitized. Some chemical sanitizers, such as chlorine and iodine,
react with food and soil and so will be less effective on a surface that has not
been properly cleaned.
Methods of Sanitizing
1. Thermal Sanitizing. It involves the use of hot
water or steam. There are three methods of using
heat to sanitize surfaces – steam, hot water, and
hot air. Hot water is the most common method
used in restaurants. If hot water is used in the third
compartment of a three-compartment sink, it must
be at least 171F (77C). If a high-temperature
ware washing machine is used to sanitize cleaned
dishes, the final sanitizing rinse must be at least
180F (82C). For stationary rack, single temperature machines, it
must be at least 165oF (74C).
Cleaned items must be exposed to these temperatures for at least 30
seconds.
2. Chemicals. Approved chemicals sanitizers are chlorine, iodine, and

quaternary ammonium. Different factors influence the effectiveness of
chemical sanitizers. The three factors that must be considered are:
a. Concentration. The presence of too little sanitizer will result in
an inadequate reduction of harmful microorganisms. Too much
can be toxic.
b. Temperature. Generally, chemical sanitizers work best in water
that is between 55F (13C) and 120F (49C).
57
c. Contact time. In order for the sanitizer to kill harmful

microorganisms, the cleaned item must be in contact with the
sanitizer (either heat or approved chemical) for the
recommended length of time.
Characteristics of ideal chemical sanitizer

• Approved for food contact surface application
• Have a wide range or scope of activity
• Destroy microorganisms rapidly
• Be stable under all types of conditions
• Tolerant a broad range of environmental conditions
• Readily solubilized and possess some detergency
• Low in toxicity and corrosivity
• Inexpensive
Don’t you know that heat sanitizing has several advantages over chemical
sanitizing agents? It’s because it:
• can penetrate small cracks and crevices;
• is non-corrosive to metal surfaces;
• is non-selective to microbial groups, except for heat resistant microbes; 
leaves no residues; and
• is easily measurable.

D. View the Ways
Watch a video presentation on how to sanitize kitchen tools and

equipment and make a narrative report about what you have learned in
the presentation. Be guided by the following questions:
1. What is the video presentation all about?
2. How are kitchen tools and equipment sanitized in the presentation?
3. Why is it important to sanitize kitchen tools and equipment?
4. Is there an appropriate application of safety measures in the
presentation?
Of course you will not just leave the cleaned and sanitized kitchen tools
and equipment in a place that is exposed to dust and/or microbes,
right? The next topic will give you the complete idea on proper storage
of kitchen tools and equipment.
59
Proper Storage of Kitchen Tools and Equipment
Proper storage and handling of cleaned and

sanitized equipment and utensils are very
important to prevent recontamination prior to
use.
Cleaned and sanitized equipment and utensils
must be:
• stored in clean storage areas; and
• handled properly to minimize contamination of
food contact surface.
9 Steps in Organizing Kitchen Cabinets

Pretend it has a glass door and that everyone is going to see what’s
inside.
1. Remove all the equipment and scrub shelves with soapy water.
2. Think about what you reach most often and make sure it gets a position
that’s easy to reach.
3. Take a cabinet full of glasses and line them up by color. Make sure all of
the front are facing out and straight. (Jeff Lewis-Style)
4. Take a step back after one shelf is done and make someone else look at
what you’ve done.
5. They should be stored in a clean dry place adequately protected against
vermin and other sources of contamination
6. Cups, bowls, and glasses must be inverted for storage.
7. When not stored in closed cupboards or lockers, utensils and containers
must be covered or inverted whenever possible. Utensils
must be stored on the bottom shelves of open cabinets below the
working top level.
8. Racks, trays and shelves must be made of materials that are imperious,
corrosive-resistant, non-toxic, smooth, durable and resistant to chipping.
9. Drawers must be made of the same materials and kept clean. Fulllined
drawers are not acceptable, but the use of clean and removable towels for
lining drawers is acceptable.

for cleaning and sanitizing premises and first aid procedure for accidents
caused by chemicals. Specifically after this module you will be able to:
1. Recognize kitchen premises to be cleaned and sanitized;
a. Classify and describe the uses of cleaning agents;
b. Clean the kitchen area in accordance with food safety and
occupational health regulations;
c. Use cleaning agents in sanitizing kitchen premises;
63
d. Follow safety and first aid procedures.
Cleaning your kitchen’s working premises regularly is important to keep

it look its best and make it free from germs and bacteria that usually
accumulate in the kitchen area during food preparations. Several surfaces
around the kitchen such as walls, floors, shelves and other surfaces must
always be cleaned and sanitized safely using the proper materials to reduce
health hazards.
Types of Sanitizers and Disinfectants

First aid procedure caused by chemical poisoning(First Aid American College of

Emergency Physicians)
64
What to do?
• If the person has been exposed to poisonous fumes, such as carbon
monoxide, get him or her into fresh air immediately
• If the person swallowed the poison, remove anything remaining in
the mouth.
• If the suspected poison is a household cleaner or other chemical,
read the label and follow instructions for accident poisoning. If the
product is toxic, the label will likely advise you to call the
hospital/doctor.
• Follow treatment directions given by poison centers.  If the poison is
spilled on the person’s clothing, remove the clothing and pour the
body with continuous tap water
Precaution: Don’t administer Ipecac syrup (a medicine that causes vomiting used
to partially empty a person’s stomach after a poison) .
The total facility cleaning and maintenance program of a food service

department must be planned to reflect concern for sanitation as “a way of
life”. Facility sanitation results can be obtained through:
• Establishing high standards
• Rigid scheduling of assignments that are clearly understood by
workers.
• Ongoing training
• Proper use of cleaning supplies
• Provision of proper materials and equipment to accomplish tasks,
and
• Frequent meaningful inspections and performance reviews.
Regular cleaning of counter tops and floors needs to be done daily and is
usually assigned as part of the regular daily duties. Other cleaning tasks that
need to be done less frequently must be scheduled and assigned as needed
for instance, daily, weekly, monthly. General cleaning of floors, windows,
walls and certain equipment should be assigned to personnel and it is often
done in cooperation with the housekeeping and maintenance departments of
the organizations.
Each of the duties on the assignment list must be explained in detail on a
written work sheet or “job breakdown” for the employee to follow. Job
breakdown includes name of the task, tools and equipment and materials to
be used, and a step by step list of what to do and how to do it.
65
All food contact equipment, containers and utensils must be cleaned

thoroughly after each use. This is especially true for meat grinders, slicers,
cutting boards, knives, mixers, peelers, dishwashing machines and stationary
can openers in order to prevent any cross-contamination.
How To Keep Your Kitchen Clean And Safe
Although they are not visible threats, many micro-organisms waiting in

your kitchen can infect your cooking and eating, and consequently have a
negative effect on your health. Food poisoning and diarrhea are just some
conditions which might be caused by preparing food in a dirty, germ-infested
kitchen. In order to prevent these, you need to make sure that your kitchen is
kept clean and safe from bacteria and other germs. Here are ways to ensure
the cleanliness of your kitchen and keep bacteria at bay.
1. Remove unnecessary clutter from surfaces. Discard appliances

and gadgets that you don't use any more, as unused appliances would only
tend to gather dust. Be sure that any appliances which are still maintained
and used are stored in a safe place that is out of reach of children.
2. Keep your refrigerator clean and tidy. Before you do your weekly
shopping, remove old and rotten food and clean shelves and racks. Look at
expiration dates and be sure to label any containers of homemade food or
leftovers. Don't make a habit of keeping food for too long in the fridge;
rotten food is prone to bacterial growth, and may even contaminate fresh
food that is kept in the same area.
3. Use a rubbish bin with a lid to keep odors out that attracts flies
and other insects. Empty it as soon as it smells, even if it is not yet full.
You should ideally do this every day.
4. Wash and disinfect your rubbish bin once a week. This will ensure
that any germs which might have remained even after you emptied out the
rubbish will die and cannot multiply. Also, this will remove any foul smells
which might be emanating from the trash bin.
5. Use separate chopping boards for different kinds of food. Keep

separate chopping boards for your meat and your vegetables to reduce the
spread of bacteria. Clean the meat chopping board extra carefully,
especially after cutting meat, as raw food has a higher tendency of
containing bacteria.
66
6. Change the dishcloth frequently which you use in wiping

surfaces everyday. Use a different cloth for surfaces and for dishes. Wash
the cloth with hot water and bleach as appropriate. Use separate towels for
hands and dishes, and change both of these regularly.
7. Use a paper towel for any mess that is likely to cause

contamination, such as raw meat or eggs, and anything that has fallen
on the floor. It is better to use disposable cleaning material and to prevent
from contaminating other food, instead of using towels or sponges which
you would use afterwards over and over again.
8. Keep kitchen floors free from debris and grease by sweeping

and washing regularly. If something has spilled, make sure to mop it right
away. Spillage could serve as a breeding ground for bacteria and could
cause accidents such as slipping from occurring.
9. Don't leave dirty crockery and pans to fester where they can
attract harmful bacteria, insects and rodents. Wash dishes with hot
water and soap as soon as you're done using them.
10. Wash surfaces that get touched. Periodically wipe doorknobs,
handles, buttons and controls, and light switches in and around your kitchen
with cleaning agents. Even if they seem clean to the naked eye, they may
already be harboring bacteria.
11. Wash your hands before handling food and after if you sneeze or
cough, blow your nose, go to the bathroom, or touch high-use surfaces.
NOTE: Harmful bacteria are likely to thrive in low acid food and in the
absence of oxygen.
Safety measures
The following are safety measures that you should do when using cleaning agents:
1. Ensure adequate ventilation.
2. Have knowledge of basic first aid.
3. Wear cotton clothing to cover your limbs and other parts of your body that
might be exposed to the cleaning agent.
4. Wear suitable footwear–it should be closed in and have a steel toe.
5. Wear industrial strength, thick plastic or rubber gloves.
6. Wear protective eye and face wear.
Can you think of any more safety measures?

67
Storage and security of chemicals
The following are recommendations for the storage and security of

chemicals and cleaning agents:
1. Keep them in a separate area, away from food and other products.
2. Keep on lower shelves to prevent accidents and to keep chemicals
from falling into food products.
3. Store in a cool, well lit and well ventilated room.
4. Do not store near heat.
5. Do not keep punctured aerosol cans.
6. Store chemicals with lids tightly on.
7. Make sure chemicals and other cleaning agents are clearly labelled,
specifying their content and use.
8. Ensure that the use by date or manufactured date is clearly readable.
9. Storage containers should be free of corrosion and moisture.
10. The storage area should be kept secure and locked when not in use.
11. Always store chemicals in designated container.
12. Do not mix chemicals.
What more can you think of?
A Reminder!
When you accidentally splashed liquid detergent in your classmate’s eye, you
should irrigate the eye with running water or an eye wash bottle for at least 15
minutes then cover the eye with a light gauze eye patch. Then take him to a
hospital or doctor.

Lesson 2
PREPARE APPETIZERS (8WEEKS)
This module deals with the skills and knowledge required in preparing and
presenting appetizers.
Upon completion of this module you should be able to:
70
1. identify the origin of appetizer;

2. perform Mise en place;
3. prepare a range of appetizers; 4. present a range of
appetizers; and
5. store appetizers.
History of Appetizer
Appetizers were originally introduced by the Athenians as a buffet in
the early third century B.C. They would serve sea urchins, cockles, sturgeon,
and garlic. However they were unpopular to start as these tiny meals weren't
followed up with a main course, leaving everyone hungry and wanting more. It
wasn't until the nineteenth century that appetizers truly caught on, as meals
evolved into more of a structured ordeal.
Aperitifs came about by the Romans and were classified as a liquid
appetizer that typically contained alcohol. In addition to inciting hunger like
food appetizers, the purposes for aperitifs were also meant to help with the
imminent digestion process. These drinks would be shared from a single
glass and passed around the table to all members of the eating party.
Aperitifs are still utilized today, typically with the company of food
appetizers.
The word itself, "appetizer," as being used in the Americas and
England in the1860s, is more of a local flavor than "hors d'oeuvres." For a
time, appetizers are served between the main course and dessert as a
refresher, but by the twentieth century they had taken their place as a
precursor to the main course.
On the other hand it is said that appetizers are the dishes that can truly
be considered Filipino because we are best known for using our hands to eat
the small finger foods that come with the first course. Appetizers can include
anything from fish to meat, nuts and chips. They are often served before
dinner or at large family lunches.
This lesson deals with the equipment used in the production of
appetizers, classifications of appetizers, identification of ingredients used for
appetizers, preparation and presentation of appetizers attractively
according to enterprise standards.

After the warm-up activity proceed to the next topic about appetizers.
Appetizers are foods which stimulate the appetite, through their

attractive appearance, fragrance or appealing flavor. It is a small pieces or
portions of highly seasoned food, usually served before a meal to induce and
stimulate one’s appetite. It gives appreciation to the food we eat.
A good appetizer, whether hot or cold should be light and served in
small quantities, Fresh vegetable and salads, fruits, or meat or even fish can
be made into appetizers.
Classification of Appetizers:
1. Cocktails- are usually juices of orange, pineapple, grapefruit or tomatoes
served with cold salad dressings. It may be in the form of a fruit or
vegetable juice mixed with little alcoholic beverage or seafood like shrimps,
crabs, or lobsters served with slightly seasoned sauce.
2. Hors D’ Oeuvres-refers to small portions of highly seasoned foods. It is a

combination of canapés, olives, stuffed celery, pickled radishes, and fish. It
is served on individual plate when guests are seated. Sometimes this is
simply placed on a platter and passed around. Hors d’oeuvres are served
cold or hot.
75
3. Canapé- are made out of thin slices of bread in different shapes. The
bread may be toasted, sautéed in butter or dipped in a well-seasoned
mixture of egg, cheese, fish, or meat then deep-fat fried. It is a finger food
consisting of three parts: a base, a spread or topping and garnish. They
could be served hot or cold. There are no set recipes for the making of
canapés. You may create your own combination of several different
colored items on the cut pieces of bread, toasted or fried and biscuits etc.
The larger canapés are termed as ZAKUSKIS after the Chef Zakuski.
4. Relishes/Crudités- are pickled item which are raw, crisp vegetables

such as julienne carrots or celery sticks. Relishes are generally placed before the
guest in a slightly, deep, boat shape dish.
5. Petite Salad- are small portions and usually display the characteristics found
in most salad.
6. Chips and Dips- are popular accompaniments to potato chips, crackers, and
raw vegetables. Proper consistency in the preparation is important for many
dip. It must not be so thick that it cannot be scooped up without breaking the
chip or crackers, but it must be thick enough to stick to the items used as
dippers.
7. Fresh Fruits and Vegetables – are the simplest appetizer. Fruits are good
appetizers because they give an attractive appearance, fragrance, appealing
taste and delicious flavor. For example, you could serve a platter of thinly
sliced cucumbers, chunks of red bell pepper and baby carrots. For a fruit tray,
consider serving red and green grapes, as well as chunks of mango with
toothpicks inserted in them. Since appetizers should always easy to pick up
with the fingers, it should never be drippy or messy so you need to avoid
certain fruits or veggies (for example, chunks of avocado or watermelon are
probably not the best appetizer choices).
8. Finger foods- are variety of appetizers wherein the only requirement is that
you keep everything small enough to be picked up with the fingers and eaten
with little mess. If you want to serve your favorite homemade sausages, cut
them into small pieces, wrap them with a small piece of pastry shell and bake.
Or, serve your favorite baked sweet potato fries with a mayonnaise-based
dipping sauce. Individual quiches filled with ham and cheese is another good
option.

The following are examples of appetizers including the

materials/ingredients on how to prepare them. Canapés
Canapés – bite-size open faced sandwiches consist of tiny portions of
food presented on bases of bread, toast, or pastry easily handled and eaten.
Canapés Consists of Three Parts

1. Base – holds the spread and garnish. Crackers and toasts are
firmer and give a pleasing texture and crispness to the canapé.
Suggestions for canapés bases are:
Bread cutouts Toast cutouts Crackers
Melba toast Tiny unsweetened pastry shells Tortilla chips or cups
77
Tiny biscuits Polenta cutouts Miniature pancakes

2. Spread - placed on top of the base so the garnish sticks to it
without falling off.
Three types of spreads
a.)Flavored butter – made from softened butters with flavorings.
b) Flavored Cream Cheese-made from flavored butters, except

cream cheese is substituted for the butter. Mixture of cream and butter
can be used.
c) Meat or Fish salad spreads – made from finely chopped meat

or fish that are spreadable. Seasons should be checked carefully to
make the spread more stimulating to the appetite.
78
3. Garnish – any food item or combination of

items placed on top of the spread which
usually gives color, design, and texture or
flavor accent to the canapé.
Food items used to decorate canapés

a) Vegetables, pickles and relishes
Radish slices Pickled onions
Tomatoes Olives
Chutney
Parsley
Pickles Asparagus
tips
Capers Cucumber slices
Pimiento
b) Fish
Smoked oysters Smoked
Salmon Shrimp
Caviar Tuna flakes
Sardines Lobster chunks or
slices
c) Meats
Ham Salami
Roast Beef Chicken or
Turkey
79
d) Cheese, hard cooked egg slices
Guidelines for Assembling Canapés
1. Good mise en place is essential.

In making canapés especially for large functions, all bases,
spreads and garnishes must be prepared ahead of time so that final
assembly may go quickly and smoothly.
2. Assemble as close as possible to serving time.
Bases quickly become soggy, and spreads and garnishes dry
out easily. After placing them in a tray, cover them lightly with plastic
and held for a short time under refrigeration. Safe food handling and
storage must be observed.
3. Select harmonious flavor combinations in spreads and garnish such as:
Mustard and ham
Lemon butter and caviar
Pimiento cream cheese and sardines
Tuna salad and capers
Anchovy butter, hard cooked egg slice and olive.
4. Make sure that at least one of the ingredients is spicy in flavor.
A bland canapé has little value as an appetizer.
5. Use high quality ingredients.
Leftover can be used for canapés, but they must be carefully handled
and stored to retain freshness.
6. Keep it simple.
80
Simple meat arrangements are more attractive than extravagant one.

Be sure that canapés hold together and do not fall apart in the customers
hands.
7. Arrange canapés carefully and attractively on trays.
Each tray should carry an assortment of flavor and textures, so there
is something for every taste.
Cocktails
Cocktail appetizers are made of seafood or fruit, usually with a
tart or tangy sauce. These appetizers are always served chilled, often on a
bed of crushed ice.
Kinds of Cocktail Appetizers
3.Crab Meat 4. Lobster

1. Oysters and 2. Shrimps

5.Fruits
Relishes
81
Relishes are raw or pickled vegetables cut into attractive shapes served as
appetizer.
Relishes include two categories:
1. Raw vegetables with dips
This are known as crudités (croo dee tays). Cru in French means “raw”.
Common bite size, cut raw vegetables served with dips are:
Celery Radishes
Green and Red pepper Zucchini
Cucumber Carrots
Cauliflower Broccoli florets
Broccoli Stems Cherry
Tomatoes Scallions
Dips – accompaniment to
raw vegetables, and sometime
potato chips and crackers. Any
mixture of spreads can be used
as dips. Proper consistency is
important to any dip. It must not
be so thick that it cannot be
scooped up without breaking
the cracker. It must be thick
enough to stick to the items
used as dippers. Thin or soften them by adding mayonnaise, cream or
other appropriate
liquid. Sauces and salad dressings can be used as dips.
82
2. Pickled items. Includes

variety of items like cucumber
pickles, olives, watermelon
pickles, pickled peppers, spiced
beets, and other preserved fruits
and vegetables.
Miscellaneous hors d ‘oeuvres

These are variety of food both hot and cold served as appetizers. The serving is

3. Tapas - a small food item intended to be eaten with wine or other

drinks usually in bars. They are served in a small portion intended to be eaten
immediately.
4. Caviar – salted roe, or eggs, of the sturgeon. Any

any other fish must be labeled as such (white fish caviar)
5. Amuse Bouche (ah mews boosh) – a tiny appetizer

or hors d’ oeuvres offered to guest seated at their tables
either before or after they have ordered from the menu. It is
an opportunity to showcase an aspect of the chef’s cooking
style and talent and to welcome the guest.
Anything that can be served in a tiny portion can be served as an amuse

bouche like salads, soups, and little portions of meat, fish or vegetables with
the few drops of sauce and garnish. The chefs don’t use a separate category
of recipe for these items but just give a different presentation, garnish or
sauce.

the different recipes.
This lesson provides you different recipes in preparing appetizers for
your guidance and reference.
Hot and Cold Appetizers

Hors d’eouvres is often served preceding a meal, they are served as the food
at cocktail parties involving alcoholic beverages.
a. Hot Hors d’oeuvres are served between the soup and
fish course. In today’s shortened menus, they are
often served instead of hot entrée. The size and
richness depend upon the composition of menu. Many
hot hors d’oeuvres are suited for serving a small ala
carte dishes, and usually described as hot dish.
b. Cold hors d’oeuvres should stimulate appetite, and
therefore should always be served at the first course in
the menu. There are five types of cold hors d’oeuvres
and they are served as follows:
• Plate of Hors d’oeuvres may consist of
shrimps, smoked beef, poached egg, Spanish
sardines and lettuce, sauce can be served at
the side
• Grisson Platter may consist of two kinds of
cold meat, such as ham, smoked beef,
peppered ham. Sauce can be served at the
side.
• Hors d’oeuvres Platter. A well-presented
platter with a limited choice of simple or more
expensive foods. The basic rules is “small
quantity, but big in quality” and at the same
time attractively served. It may consists of
shrimps with jelly, asparagus tip with
mushrooms, sardines with onion rings,
tomatoes stuffed with salad and chicken loaf.
• Assorted hors d’oeuvres can be served in
special portioned platters with dishes or even
from a serving cart.
• Rich hors d’oeuvres - still a classical form of
presentation. Lobster should always be
included. The hors d’oeuvres
87

Learning Outcome 3 Present a Range of Appetizers

Objectives
1. identify the fundamentals of plating;
2. identify the accompaniments of appetizers;
3. present appetizers attractively; and
4. observe sanitary practices in presenting appetizers
Appetizers can be more appreciated if presented attractively like the saying

goes “the eyes eats first”. Plate presentation is the process of offering the
appetizer to guests in a stylish and pleasing manner. It requires skills, style
and creativity.
This lesson will provide you the knowledge, skills and understanding in
presenting range of appetizers.
Fundamentals of Plating
1. Balance
The rules of good menu balance also apply to plating. Select foods and
garnishes that offer variety and contrast.
94
• Color. Two or more colors on a plate are usually more interesting

than one. Garnish is also important.
• Shapes. Plan for variety of shapes and forms. Cutting vegetables into
different shapes gives you great flexibility.
• Texture. Not strictly visual consideration, but important in plating in
menu planning.
• Flavors. One of the factors to consider when balancing colors,
shapes, and texture on the plate.
2. Portion size. This is important for presentation as well as for costing.
• Match portion sizes and plates. Too small a plate makes an
overcrowded, jumbled, messy appearance. Too large a plate makes
the portions look skimpy.
• Balance the portion sizes of the various items on the plate. Apply
logical balance of portions.
3. Arrangement on the plate
Basic Principles of Platter Presentation
1. The three elements of a buffet platter.
• Centerpiece or Grosse piece (gross pyess). This may be an uncut
portion of the main food item, such as a pate or a cold roast,
decorated and displayed whole. It may be a separate but related
item, such as molded salmon mousse
• The slices or serving portions should be arranged artistically.
• The garnish should be artistically done in proportion to the cut slices.
2. The food should be easy to handle and serve, so that one portion can be
removed without ruining the arrangement.
3. A simple design is best. Simple arrangement is easier to serve, more
appetizing, and still attractive when are half consumed by the guest.
4. Attractive platter presentation may be made on silver or other metals, on
mirrors, chinaware, plastic ware, wood, or any other materials provided
they are presentable and suitable for food.
5. Once a piece of food has touched the tray, do not remove it. Shiny silver or
mirror trays are easily smudged, and you’ll have to wash the tray and start
over again. Good pre-planning should be considered.
6. Think of the platter as part of the whole. It must be attractive and
appropriate to the other presentation in the table.
Designing the platter
1. Plan ahead. Make a sketch by dividing the tray into six or eight
sections. This will help you lay out a balance and symmetrical design.
The sketch should indicate the centerpiece, slices of foods and
garnishes.
95
2. Get movement into your design. Good design makes your eyes move
across the platter following the lines you have set up. It could be
arranged in rows or lines.
3. Give the design a focal point. Use centerpiece to emphasize and
strengthen the design by giving it direction and height. Note that
centerpiece is not always in the center.
4. Keep items in proportion.
5. Make the garnish count. Use garnish to balance out a plate by providing
additional element. Two items on a plate often look unbalanced, but
adding a garnish completes the picture. On the other hand do not add
unnecessary garnishes.
6. Don’t drown every plate in sauce or gravy. It may hides colors and
shapes. You may cover a part of it or a band of sauce across the
center.
7. Keep it simple. Simplicity is more attractive than complicated designs.
8. Let the guest see the best side of everything. Angle overlapping slices
and wedged-shaped pieces toward the customer and the best side of
each slice is face up.

A. Pose and Dispose
Let’s find out if you can arrange your prepared appetizers attractively
following the fundamentals of plating, principles of platter presentation
and designing the platter.
Your output will be rated using the rubric below:
SCORE CRITERIA

7. Salad Spinners – used to hold just

washed salad leave in a slotted
basket that is made to spin by
hand and thus fling all the water
off the leaves into the outer
container.
8. Mixing bowls – used to mix

dressings, marinate ingredients,
hold separate elements of a salad
before assembling and used to
toss and mix all the ingredients
together. Used bowls made of
sturdy, heavy glass wares or
ceramic, so as not to react with
acidic ingredients.
106
9. Salad servers – “Salad sets” with

big salad bowls, serving bowls
and servers. Select materials
having enough surfaces to really
grasp the ingredients of salad no
matter how slippery and thus
making tossing easier.
Classification of Salads According to their Functions in the Meal.

1. Appetizer Salads. It stimulate appetite which has fresh, crisp
ingredients; tangy
flavorful dressing;
and attractive,
appetizing
appearance.It
looks appealing
because of flavorful
foods like cheese,
ham, salami shrimp
and crabmeat.
Crisp raw or lightly cooked vegetables can also be added.
107
2. Accompaniment salad –
accompaniment salads
must balance and
harmonize with the rest
of the meal, like any
other side dish. Don’t
serve potato salad at the
same meal at which you
are serving french Fries
or another starch. Sweet fruit salads are rarely appropriate as
accompaniment except with
such items as ham or pork.
3. Side dish salads should be

light and flavorful, not too
much vegetable salads are
often good choices.
Heavier salads such as
macaroni or high protein
salads containing seafood,
cheese are less
appropriate, unless the main course is light.
4. Main course salads – should be large

enough to serve as a full meal and
should contain a substantial portion of
protein. Meat, poultry and seafood
salads as well as egg salad and
cheese are popular choices.
Main course salads should
offer enough variety of flavors and
textures in addition to the protein
and salad platter or fruits.
108
5. Separate course
salads – these
salads must be
very light without
filling. Rich,
heavy dressings
such as
sour cream
and mayonnaise should be avoided. Light salad are serve after
the main course to cleanse the palate, refresh the appetite and
provide a break before dessert.
6. Dessert salads – dessert salad are usually sweet and may contain
items such as fruits, sweetened gelatin, nuts and cream.
Classification of Salads According to Ingredients Used
109
1. Green salads – must be

fresh, clean, crisp and cold
and well drained. Moisture
and air are necessary to
keep greens crisp.
a) Leaves wilt because
they lose moisture.
Crispness can be
restored by washing
and refrigerating. The
moisture that clings to
the leaves after
thorough draining is
usually enough.
b) Air circulation is essential so do not washed greens too
tightly or pack too firmly. Refrigerate in colanders
covered with clean damp towels, or in specially designed
perforated plastic bins. These protect from drying while
allowing air circulation.
2. Vegetable, Grain Legumes and Pasta Salads - vegetable salads

are salads whose main ingredients are
vegetables other than lettuce or other leafy greens. Starchy
items such as grains, pastas and dried legumes
can also form the body of a salad. Raw or cooked
vegetables are usually added to the starch items to enhance the color,
flavor and nutritional balance of the salad. Protein items such as
poultry, meat, seafood and cheese maybe added to vegetables and
starch salads.
110
3. Bound salads – are mixture of foods that are held together or

bound with a dressing usually
a thick dressing like
mayonnaise.
The term
bound is most often
used for traditional
mixtures of cooked
protein, starch and
vegetables items
with mayonnaise
like chicken salad, tuna salad, egg salad and potato salad.
4. Fruit Salad – contain fruits as their main

ingredients, like appetizer salads or
dessert salads.
5. Composed Salads – made by arranging

two or more elements attractively on a
plate. They are called composed
because the components are arranged
on the plate rather than being mixed
together. They are elaborate and can be
substantial in size, usually served as
main courses or fruit courses rather than
accompaniments or side dishes.
111
6. Gelatin Salads – most gelatin products are made with

sweetened prepared mixes with artificial color and flavor. But
some professional cook used to prepare salads using
unflavored gelatin relying on fruit juices and other ingredients for
flavor.

Guidelines for Making Salads

1. Vegetables, Legumes, Grains and Pasta Salads
• Neat, accurate cutting of ingredients is important because the shapes of
the vegetables add to eye appeal.
• Cut vegetables as close as possible to serving time or they may dry or

shrivel at the edges.
• Cooked vegetables to a firm, crisp texture and good color.
• After cooking, vegetables must be thoroughly drained and chilled before

using.
• Starches, pastas and legumes should be cooked until completely

tender but not overcooked.
• Vegetables are sometimes marinated or soaked in a seasoned liquid

before being made into salad. The marinade is usually some form of oil
and vinegar dressing that also serves as the dressing for the salad. Do
not plate marinated salads too far ahead of time because the lettuce
base will wilt.
• Grains and pastas may also be marinated for a short time. If marinated
too long, pasta absorb too much liquid and become very soft. Legumes
should not be allowed to stand longer in a marinade because the acid
toughen the proteins in the beans.
2. Bound Salads
117
• Cooked ingredients must be thoroughly cooled before being

mixed with mayonnaise and the completed salad mixture must
be kept chilled at all times.
• Leftover such as chicken meat or fish which have been handled

according to the rules of good sanitation and food management
can be used for making bound salads.
• Potatoes for salads should be cooked whole before peeling and

cut in order to preserve nutrients.
• Crisp vegetables like celery, green peppers, carrots, chopped

pickles, onions and water chestnuts are used.
• Bland ingredients like potatoes and some foods maybe

marinated in seasoned liquid such as vinaigrette before being
mixed with mayonnaise and other ingredients.
• Fold in thick dressings gently to avoid crushing or breaking the

main ingredients.
• Bound salads are portioned using scoop to give height and

shape to the salad.
• For plated salads, serve on a base with greens and choose

attractive, colorful garnishes when appropriate
3. Fruit Salads
• Fruit salads are often arranged, mixed or tossed of most fruits that
are delicate and easily broken. An exception is the Waldorf salad,
made of firm apples mixed with nuts, celery and mayonnaise
based dressing.
• Broken or less attractive pieces of fruit should be placed on the

bottom of the salad while more attractive pieces arranged on top.
• Some fruit discolor when cut and should be dipped into an acid
such as tart or fruit juice.
118
• If both vegetables and fruits salads are being prepared, vegetables

salad should be prepared first.
• Drained canned fruits well before mixing them in the salad.
• Dressings for fruit salad are usually sweet, but fruit juices are used
to add tartness.
4. Composed Salads
• Prepare and season each ingredients separately and evaluate the
flavor and quality.
• Arrangements maybe plated ahead of time and add delicate

ingredients just before serving.
• Flavors and textures of all ingredients should provide pleasing

contrast
• Observe general concepts of plating and presentations of output.
5. Gelatin Salads
• Observe the correct proportion of gelatin and liquid. Too much
gelatin makes a stiff, rubbery product while too little makes a soft
product that will not formed the desired shape.
• To dissolve unflavored gelatin, stir it in cold liquid to avoid
lumping and let it stand for 5 minutes to absorb water. Then
heat it until dissolves, or add hot liquid and stir until dissolved.
• To dissolve sweetened, flavored gelatin, stir it into boiling water.

It will not lump because the gelatin granules are held apart by
sugar granules.
• For quick setting, dissolve the gelatin to half of the volume of

liquid and the other half is cold water to lower the temperature.
For even faster setting, add crushed ice in an equal volume of
cold water, stir until the ice is melted.
• Do not add raw pineapple and papaya to gelatin salads because

these fruits contain enzymes (bromelain and papain,
respectively) which dissolves gelatin.
119
• Canned fruits and other juicy items must be well drained before
adding because they will watered down the gelatin.
• To unmold gelatin if it is firm

- Loosen it by dipping a small pointed knife in warm
water and running the tip of it around the top edge of
the molded gelatin.
- Dip the mold into hot water for 1 – 2 seconds
- Quickly moisten tips of the fingers and gently pull
gelatin away from edge
 Refrigerate gelatin salads.
Procedure for Quantity Salad Production

1. Prepare all ingredients. Wash and cut greens, fruits, vegetables, and
garnishes. Prepare cooked vegetables and mix bound and marinated
salads. Have all ingredients chilled.
2. Arrange salad plates on worktables. Line them up on trays for easy
transfer to refrigerator.
3. Place bases on all plates.
4. Arrange body of salad on all plates.
5. Garnish all salads.
6. Refrigerate until serving.
7. Do not add dressing to green salads until serving.
Important Factors to consider in Salad Preparation

1. Quality of ingredients. Salad is as good as the quality of its ingredients, so you
have to use ingredients that are fresh, ripe and in season.
2. Eye Appeal. It should be attractive, appetizing, creatively presented.
3. Simplicity. Make it simple not overcrowded.
4. Neatness. Keep salad neatly placed in a plate.
5. Contrast and Harmony of colors. Contrast in color for your garnishing can
accentuate the appearance of the salad.
6. Proper Food combinations. Choose combination of ingredients carefully.
Pineapples and coconut go well with chicken but not compatible with tuna.
7. Foods should be recognizable. Taste of the food that you are using as a base
should be identifiable when you taste the salad. The dressing should
dominates the taste. The size of cut should be bid enough (usually bite size) to
be recognized.
8. Keep foods properly chilled but not ice-cold.
9. Serve hot foods while hot and cold foods cold.
120
10. Keep it clean and crispy. This is done by washing greens in large quantity of
water and drain well and removing the green from the water to allow the dirt to
settle to the bottom of the container.
11. Flavorful. Tempting and stimulating if prepared and presented properly.
12. Drain all the ingredients well. Water or excess juices will weaken dressings
and will make your salad look messy.
13. Do not overcook food. Food and ingredients when overcooked eliminates the
color and its vitamins and minerals as well.

Prepare Variety of Salad Dressing

Ingredients of Salad Dressing
Salad dressings are liquid or semi liquids used to flavor salads. The
flavors of most salad dressings are not modified by cooking. The quality
depends directly on the quality of the ingredients used.
Most salad dressings are made primarily of oil and acid with other ingredients
added to modify the flavor or texture.
123
1. Oils – should have mild, sweet flavor.

Strongly flavored oil can make
excellent salad dressing but not
appropriate with every food.
Examples: corn oil, soybean oil, canola
oil, peanut oil, olive oil,
walnut oil
2. Vinegar – should have a good, clean sharp flavor.

Most salad vinegar are about 5% acidity, but some
range from 7-8%.
3. Lemon Juice – fresh lemon juice maybe used in place of

or in addition to vinegar in some preparation.
4. Eggyolk – as essential ingredient in mayonnaise and

other emulsifier dressings. For safety, pasteurized
eggs should be used.
5. Seasoning and flavorings – fresh herbs are preferable to dried herbs.

Other flavorings include mustard, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and
various kinds of cheeses.
Types of Salad Dressings
124
1. Oil and Vinegar

dressings –
Basic
vinaigrette is a
simple mixture
of oil, vinegar
and seasonings
which is an
example of
temporary emulsions. The ratio of oil to vinegar is 3
parts oil to 1 part vinegar. However, it can be
changed depending upon the taste. Less oil makes
the dressing tarter, while more oil makes it taste
milder
and oilier.
2. Emulsified Dressings
– Mayonnaise is an
emulsified dressing. It
is more often serves
as the base for wide
variety of other
dressings.
Mayonnaise based
dressings are
generally
thick and
creamy.
3. Other Dressings – cooked salad dressing is similar

with appearance to mayonnaise, but it has a tarter
flavor, while mayonnaise is richer and milder.
Cooked dressing is
made with little or no oil and with a starch thickener.
125
There are variety of dressings based on neither mayonnaise nor

oil and vinegar. They include dressings on sour cream and on fruit juice and
yogurt and low calorie dressings. The important thing is that these dressings
should have well balanced flavor with a pleasant tartness and should
harmonize and complement the salad which they are served.
Emulsions in Salad Dressings
The uniform mixture of two unmixable liquids, oil and vinegar is called
emulsion.
1. Temporary Emulsions – a simple oil and vinegar dressing is called

temporary emulsion because the two liquids always separate after being
shaken. The harder the mixture is beaten or shaken, the longer it takes
for it to separate.
2. Permanent Emulsions – mayonnaise is

also a mixture of oil and vinegar, but the two
liquids do not separate because it contains
egg yolk which is a strong emulsifier. The
egg yolk forms a layer around each of the
tiny droplets and holds them in suspension.
All emulsions form more easily at room
temperature.
126
3.Other stabilizers are used in some preparations. Cooked

dressing uses starch in addition to eggs. Commercially
made dressings may use such emulsifiers as gums,
starches and gelatin.

Learning Outcome 4 Store Salads and Dressings
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:

a. identify safety and hygienic practices in storing salad and
dressing; and
b. keep appetizers in appropriate conditions to maintain its
freshness, and quality.
Safety and hygienic practices in storing salad and dressing
• Green Salads are plated in a cold plate. Avoid plating salads more than
an hour or two before service. Garnish that is tossed should be added at
serving time.
• Refrigerate salads before serving time.
• Dressing is added immediately before serving, or serves it on the side.
• Refrigerate salads until serving. Do not hold more than a few hours, or
the salads will sag. Holding boxes should have high humidity.
• Do not add dressing to green salads until serving, or they will sag.
138
Principles and Practices of Hygiene in Preparing Salads and Salad

Dressing
Washing all salad vegetables is important to ensure food safety.
How to Wash Fruits and Vegetables
 Start by choosing produce that's free of bruises, mold, or other signs of
damage. If you are purchasing precut items, make sure they have been
refrigerated or displayed on ice at the supermarket.
 Once home, store perishable fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator (at
40 degrees F or below) until you're ready to use them.
Always store precut fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator, too.
 Wash your hands for 20 seconds with soap and warm water before and
after handling fresh produce.
 Use a sharp paring knife to cut away any damaged or bruised areas of
the fruit or vegetable.
 Wash the produce before you peel it. That way, contaminants will not
be transferred from your knife to the fruit or vegetable.
 Hold the fruit or vegetable under cool running tap water, gently rubbing
it as you rinse it.
 For firm produce, such as melons and winter squash, use a clean
vegetable brush to scrub the surface as you rinse it.
 Produce with bumpy, uneven surfaces, such as cauliflower and
broccoli, should be soaked for 1 to 2 minutes in cold water to remove
contaminants from the nooks and crannies.
 Use a clean cloth or paper towel to dry the produce before using it.
How to Wash Salad Greens

Salad greens require special attention. First, discard the wilted outer leaves;
then prep and wash greens as directed for each type.
 For leafy lettuces, such as green or red-tip leaf, butter head, and
romaine as well as endive, remove and discard the root end. Separate
leaves and hold them under cold running water to remove any dirt.
139
 For smaller greens, such as spinach and arugula, swirl them in a bowl
or a clean sink filled with cold water about 30 seconds. Remove the
leaves and shake gently to let dirt and other debris fall into the water.
Repeat the process if necessary. Drain in a colander.
 For iceberg lettuce, remove the core by hitting the stem end on the
countertop; twist and lift out the core. (Do not use a knife to cut out the
core, as this can cause the lettuce to brown). Hold the head, core side
up under cold running water, pulling leaves apart slightly. Invert the
head and drain thoroughly. Repeat if necessary.
 For mesclun (a mixture of young, small salad greens often available in
bulk at farmers markets), rinse in a colander or the basket of a salad
spinner.
Other Tips for Washing Fruits and Vegetables

 Do not use soap or detergents when washing produce.
 Wash fruits and vegetables. Cool, clean, running tap water is fine.
 Wash all produce before using, even if you are going to peel it. Any dirt
and bacteria on the outside of unwashed produce can be transferred
from the knife into the fruit or vegetable.
Tip: Even organic fruits and vegetables, as well as produce from your own garden
or local farmer's markets, should be washed well.

BASIC COMPONENTS OF A SANDWICH

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
156
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 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
157
 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
158
Deep-fried sandwiches are made by dipping sandwiches in

beaten egg and sometimes in bread crumbs, and then
deep-fry..
5. Filled rolls, focaccia or pitta bread
Flavored breads served with dips like quesadillas and

burritos

2. present sandwiches attractively
Portion Sandwiches and its Ingredients
Portion Control is necessary to proportionate the weight, scoop and slice

of food items, like ham and roasted beef. Other ingredients can be portion
control, by slicing the meat thinly and correctly. You will need a good meat
slicer and a scale to weigh your meat.
For sandwich fillings you can use scoops and make sure it does not
exceed the scoop edges. The scoop is made so you can proportionately
apportion the amount of food, no more or no less.
Sliced items are portioned by count and by weight. If portioning is by count,
take care to slice to the proper thickness. If done by weight, each portion can
be placed on squares of waxed paper or stacked in a container.
2. 3.

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
184
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.

Learning Outcome 4 Store Sandwiches

1. store sandwiches hygienically at the proper temperature; and
2. keep sandwiches in appropriate conditions to maintain
freshness and quality.
Proper storage for sandwiches
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.
188
Storing Techniques
1. Wrapping – to draw, fold and cover a sandwich
2. Packaging Material – used to package sandwich like box, plastic,
container

Reasons for eating desserts and sweets

• Dessert balances out a meal and gives “closure” to the meal.
• 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
201
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.
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
202
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

 velvety smooth texture
 rich flavor
 has pouring consistency of heavy cream
203
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
204
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
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
205
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.

Learning 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
206
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.
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
207
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.
208
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.
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.
209
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.
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.
210
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
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.
211
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 foodborne 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.
212

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
222
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
2. NUT GARNISH
223
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.
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.
224
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
225
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.
• Choose garnishes that are the correct size; they should be easy to eat.

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:
226
• 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.
229
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
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.
230
• 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 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
231
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
• 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.
232
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
233
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.
• 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

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
234
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 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
235
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.
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
236
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
