“We are out of Waldorf…”

In 211-211 Gastronomy on May 7, 2008 at 3:41 pm

211-211 Gastronomy class of May 7, 2008 in room 19-602 (attendance: 26)

\After watching the video extract from Fawlty Towers, gastronomy students know that it is not possible to “be out of Waldorf” since the Waldorf is a hotel in New York City, and not a salad ingredient.

After watching the video and having a short break, we have completed the handouts of chapter 2, reading the stories of the pizza, croissant, potatoes, tomatoes, and bananas.  Vocabulary to remember and know: peasant; tomato; dough; flour; yeast; pastry; cheese; lettuce; mushroom; beef; olive; wine; brandy; ingredient; peach.

HOMEWORK: find the recipe + 1 photo for beef stroganoff; beef wellington; caesar salad; chicken marengo; eggs benedict; and waldorf salad.  Please e-mail to Ajarn Martin by next Wednesday, May 14 (edwin.m@siamu.ac.th).

TERM PROJECT: invent/create your own original recipe for a salad with whatever ingredients you want; 4-person group; to be presented on Tuesday 3 June; 10 points; the best salad voted by the jury will be entitled to name the salad and put it on the menu of Sky Lounge.
