Home Economics assessment

 Hello people in home economics for the last few weeks we have been working on making a piece  of food for a teacher that we got to pick I picked Mr Gibson. Who I made scones for when I gave him the food he said he loved it. 

We had to make a shopping list on what we need for the food. we were going to make and it had to be in dealt of the right amount of food we need. We had to get the costing of how much the food was metes were going to cost so then the teacher knew how much to buy and the cost of it all. 

We had to make a sheet on our time management so then we knew how long it was going to take and then we had a plain on when we had to have it done by.

We had to find there recipes that we thought our stake holder would like then we had to read the whole thing and for the food I was making I had to half the whole recipe so them it would only make 6 not 12 

BEST EVER SCONES makes 6 The link to the original recipe

• ​1.5 cup standard flour

• 3 tsp  baking powder             

• 1/16 tsp salt                                            

• extra  milk

• 37.5g  butter

• 80 ml  milk, approximately

• 100 g edam cheese grated 

​Preheat the oven to 220ºC. Grease or flour a baking tray.

 

1. Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Rub in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs.
   
   

2. Add the milk and cheese grated  and quickly mix with a round-bladed table knife. The mixture should be quite soft and a little sticky. Scrape the dough onto the floured baking tray and flour the top.
   
   

3. Working quickly, pat the dough out to 2cm thickness and with a floured knife cut it into 12 even-sized pieces, then separate the scones to allow 2cm space between them. Brush the tops with milk.
   
   

4. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Place on a wire rack to cool, wrapped in a clean tea towel to keep them soft. 

 

Here are some photos of me making the food and after 

My stake holder said  

Thank-you so much for the scones - you are a real talent in the baking area!

They were so good that I had to share them. I gave one to your Dean, one to Mr Goodfellow and one to Mrs Wheeler. You are a hit with all of them!

There has got to be money in being able to make scones that well!

 

The scones were steaming and when I cut into it the cheese was still melting. The colour is a delicious golden hue and the bright orange cheese contrasts nicely. I like the way that the scone is light and fluffy.
