Introducción a la cocina
Submitted by Nikki on
Students answered some questions about Latin American food:
* ¿Cuáles son tus comidas favoritas?
* ¿Qué piensas de comida latinoamericana?
* ¿Qué platillo cocinas bien?
Individually, students completed the attached evaluation to see what vocabulary they know about the kitchen. We went through all of the vocabulary and students are expected to learn all of this vocabulary throughout our unit.
Starting next week and for the next several weeks, we will be spending a lot of time in the kitchen. We came up with a list of rules for the kitchen, the most important being speaking Spanish while in the kitchen and cleaning up.
We talked about typical Argentine food based on research students had done. A typical breakfast includes medialunas (crescent rolls) and dulce de leche which we are going to be cooking over the next few classes.
Tarea: students are to find a recipe for medialunas and dulce de leche. In pairs, they will cook medialunas on Tuesday. I will have basic ingredients: eggs, sweetened condensed milk, flour, baking powder, sugar but students should bring anything extra that their recipe calls for.
