Week 2 at LCB

Last week we worked on some more cutting.  Here are a few pictures of what I'm working on.  I've got some work to do before my knife skills test.

Tourne and Demilunes

 

I must be eating at the wrong restaurants because I've never seen vegetables cut like this before.

Julienne, Paysenne and Lemon Crowns and Basket

P.F. Chang's also came and did a demonstration for us.  They showed us how their kitchen works and prepared a few dishes for us.  And yes, we got to sample some!  

We also learned more about Food Safety and Sanitation.  Chef  likes to remind us that we have the power to kill people with our food, but that we should avoid doing it cuz that's not cool.
