Here is a basic recipe to get you started. Experiment with making your cheesecake a few times, trying out changes you would like to make. Write down your recipe each time until you are happy with it.
Name your recipes:
Cheesecake recipe version 1
Cheesecake recipe version 2...
Paste each version of your recipe into your portolio, with photos of the results, and comments about how the cheesecake turned out. đź“—
Watch this Jamie Oliver clip "What NOT to do in the kitchen".
Write down as many food safety errors as you think of (I got 21).
Now watch the other 2 clips, then revisit your list and see if you get more.
(Hint: 2 errors to do with a knife, 5+ errors to do with personal hygiene habits, 1 error to do with kitchen attire, 2 errors to do with safety, 7+ errors to do with contamination, a few other errors...)
Here is a template about food safety. There are different aspects:
Kitchen Clothing - clean kitchen clothing, footwear, apron...
Personal Hygiene - washing hands, not touching face...
Health & Safety - oven gloves to prevent burns...
Food Safety - covering food to prevent contamination...
Fill in this sheet.
Your final cheesecake will be measured against each of these specifications. It must meet all of these to pass the assessment.
Write down how you think your final cheesecake outcome meets each specification in the "student judgement" column.
Insert photos of your finished cheesecake.
temperature (use a laser or probe thermometer)
colour (use colour charts)
viscosity (use a timed funnel and scale, or “upside-down test” or time it sliding off a spoon)
sensory testing (taste, texture, sweetness, flavour)
moisture content
nutritional content
Make a list of the tests you will do, at which points in your processing, what the desired outcome is, and what corrective action you will take if the test shows something is not right.
