I was so proud to see Louise gain Freedom of the City . . .

Celebrating #BritishScienceWeek with some valuable food science within our Food and Nutrition lessons. Students looked at gelatinisation when making starch based sauces like these roux sauces learning about the swelling of the starch granules during the heating process 🧪 🧫

Food science was demonstrated this week when students whisked eggs alongside sugar to create a stable foam during Swiss roll production. They discussed the trapping of the air when whisking and the manual sifting of the flour which was then folded in 🍓👨‍🍳 #BritishScienceWeek

I love the way good food teachers explain the practical work that their students do . . .

So helpful for food teachers to relieve stress when moderating and marking. Not too late to book!

Special coffee froth designs.

Sooooo delicious!

We love a bit of food science while undertaking practical work - well done Year 10 Mrs Tapp!

🫘 #Pulses aren't just good for your body – they're superheroes for the environment too! By choosing them, you're not only nourishing yourself with protein, fibre & other key nutrients but also helping to combat climate change and promoting sustainable agriculture practices. 💚

🌱 Legumes, pulses and beans may seem similar, but they're not the same! #Legumes are plants whose fruit is enclosed in a pod, and #pulses are the dry seeds inside those pods. #Beans , lentils, chickpeas, and split peas are all pulses!

#WorldPulsesDay #LovePulses

Always worth teaching food science when you love cookery . . .

Phosphorus is a nutrient that is vital for bones and teeth. That’s why it’s important to make sure we get enough. Dairy boosts phosphorous intake - #milk , #cheese and #yogurt all provide this essential nutrient. More info here: milk.co.uk/milk-nutrition…
