FACS STUDENTS EXPLORE CULINARY SKILLS
Students in Mrs. Keller’s Family and Consumer Sciences (FACS) class recently demonstrated their growing culinary skills through a variety of hands-on cooking activities.
As part of their coursework, students learned how to use a pasta machine to create fresh pasta, which they then hung to dry. They also prepared garlic knots completely from scratch using yeast-based pizza dough, gaining experience with dough preparation and baking techniques.
In addition, students explored flavor development by browning butter to achieve a nutty, caramelized taste for their cookies. To round out the lesson, they baked pumpkin quick bread, applying their understanding of measurement, mixing methods, and oven safety.
Through these experiences, Mrs. Keller’s students are developing essential life skills while building confidence and creativity in the kitchen.
Nice work, everyone!
