Desert Description
Crème brulee
- Crème brûlée, also known as charred cream, burnt cream, or Trinity cream,
is a creamy custard-based delicacy topped with a layer of firm caramelized
sugar, comparable to crema catalana.
Crème caramel - In contrast to crème brûlée, which is custard with a hard caramel layer on
top, crème caramel, flan, or caramel custard is a custard delicacy with a layer
of clear caramel sauce.
Crêpes
- A crêpe or crepe is a type of very thin pancake. Crêpes are usually of two
types: sweet crêpes and savoury galettes. Crêpes are served with a variety of
fillings, from the simplest with only sugar to flambéed crêpes Suzette or
elaborate savoury galette

make it.
Mousse - A mousse is a light and airy soft prepared food that contains air bubbles.
Depending on the technique used, it can range from light and fluffy to
creamy and thick. Mousse can be either sweet or savory.
Parfait

heating cream, egg, sugar, and syrup to make a custard-like puree that is
sometimes served in a parfait glass.
Pies
- A pie is a dish made with a pastry dough crust and a filling of sweet or
savory ingredients. Fruit, nuts, brown sugar, or sweetened vegetables can be
used to fill sweet pies. Meat, eggs, and cheese, as well as a combination of
meat and vegetables, can be used to fill savory pies.
prepared fruit - To get the most nutrition out of fruits and vegetables, they need to be
handled, prepared, and stored properly. The first and most critical step is to
rinse all vegetables in potable water. Limiting the surface area of vegetables
by cutting it into big chunks (or cooking it whole) can also help to decrease
nutritional loss.
Puddings
Sabayon
- Sabayon is an Italian delicacy or drink prepared with egg yolks, sugar, and
sweet wine. Cognac and other spirits are used in some variants of the recipe.
A light custard is whisked to integrate a substantial amount of air in the
dessert version.
Souffle - A soufflé is a baked egg-based delicacy that dates from the early eighteenth
century in France. It can be presented as a savory main meal or softened as a
dessert when combined with other ingredients.

Sorbet - Sorbet, sometimes known as sherbet, is a frozen treat created with sugar-
sweetened water and flavorings such as fruit juice, purée, wine, liqueur, or
honey. Sherbets, on the other hand, usually contain dairy products. Its name
is derived from the Persian word sharbat.
Tarts

top that is not covered in dough. The dough is normally shortcrust; the filling
can be sweet or savory, however most modern tarts are fruit-based, with
custard added sometimes.
Flour or other starches: Flour is the powdered that results from mashing fresh whole grains, whereas starch is a simple
carbohydrate. Flour includes a lot of starch, yet starch doesn't have any flour in it. Starch is high in empty calories, but
flour is high in protein and minerals.
Cooking fats: At room temperature, a solid heating fat is one that stays solid. Butter, margarine, and coconut oil are
examples of solid fats. Solid fats, on average, have a larger saturated fat content than liquid fats.
Dairy and eggs: Dairy foods include those made from the milk of animals such as cows and goats. It basically refers to
milk and any milk-based cuisine, such as cheese, cream, butter, and yogurt. Birds such as chickens, ducks, and quail, on
the other hand, lay eggs.

▪ fat free/ low fat: These terms mean that "fat-free" foods must contain just under 0.5 gram of fat per serving. "Low-
fat" foods must contain no more than 3 grams of fat per serving. "Reduced-fat" foods must contain at least 25% less
fat than regular versions of the same foods.
▪ low carbohydrate: A low-carb diet restricts carbohydrates like those complex carbohydrate, starchy vegetables, and
fruit and highlights foods high in protein and fat. There are numerous types of low-carb diets. Each diet has different
specific limitations and amounts of carbohydrates that can be consumed.
▪ low gluten/ gluten free: Gluten can be found in grains such as wheat, barley, rye, and triticale, a cross between
wheat and rye. A gluten-free diet can help deal with the symptoms of celiac disease and other gluten-related medical
conditions. This diet has also gained popularity among people who do not have gluten-related medical conditions.
▪ low sugar/ sugar free: This approach of eating, often known as a sugar-free diet, aims to eliminate sources of added
sugar from your normal food intake. To put it another way, items like candy and drink are out. Some people may
also choose to limit or eliminate natural sugar sources, such as fruits and vegetables. All items that include added
sugars, as well as fruit and any vegetables that contain natural sugars, such as peas, carrots, and parsnips, are
prohibited in the most extreme variant of a sugar-free diet.
▪ vegan: All items that include added sugars, and also fruit as well as any vegetables that naturally contain sugars,
such as peas, carrots, and parsnips, are prohibited in the most severe variant of a sugar-free diet.
2.2 What is the difference between a food allergy and food intolerance? Include the effects of each.
- A real food allergy triggers an immunological response that affects multiple organs throughout the body. It might result
in a variety of symptoms. An allergic food reaction can be life-threatening in some situations. Food intolerance
symptoms, on the other hand, are usually milder and limited to stomach issues.
3.1 What is the possible legal consequence of failing to follow a special dietary request from a customer?

- Malnutrition, osteoporosis, depression, and infertility are all problems that can arise if celiac disease is not addressed.
Untreated celiac disease can also result in a modest (but genuine) increase in the risk of some cancers, such as small
bowel lymphoma.
- Use-by dates can be found on perishables including meat, seafood, and dairy goods. Instead of a 'use-by' date, some
items display the date they were prepared or packed, so you can determine how new the food is. Bread and meat, for
example, can be labeled with a "baked on" or "packed on" date.
4.2 There are a number of foods and food categories that do not need to carry date marks under the Food Labelling
Regulations 1996. Provide 5 examples?
- Nutritional information is not required for raw fruits, vegetables, or fish. Items that contain insignificant levels of all
needed nutrients (insignificant implies it can be reported as zero) (foods that fall under this exception include tea, coffee,
food coloring, and so on).

To balance out the naturally acidic and sour flavor of yogurt, store-bought
parfaits sometimes contain extra sugars or artificial sweeteners. But do you
really need that that sugar to make a nice treat? Try making your own with
Strawberry Rhubarb Parfait seasonal fruit and a modest quantity of honey or maple syrup instead of
buying store-bought versions. Seasonal (or frozen) fruit, drizzled with honey

PART B
You are to provide information on culinary terms and trade names for ingredients commonly used in the production of
different poultry dishes for the following variety of classical and contemporary poultry dishes including the different cuts
of poultry and styles of cooking.
1.1 Below is a list of common culinary terms for baking to help you with reading a recipe. Define each of the culinary
terms listed below:
Baking blind Blind baking (sometimes known as pre-baking) is the process of baking a pie crust or
other baked item without the filling. When a pie's outside layer will be loaded with an
unbaked filling (like with pudding or cream pies), the hull should be totally heated.
Beating Using a wooden spoon, electric whisk, food blender, or food processor, thoroughly
combine the ingredients. The purpose of its existence is to thoroughly consolidate
fixes and fuse air, resulting in light and fluffy cakes.
Creaming Creaming is the process of turning a solid fat like shortening or margarine into a
creamy mass and then blending it with various ingredients. Buttercream and cake
batter are regularly made using this method.
Curdling Curdling is the physicocompound cycles of flocculation, creaming, and mixing that
break down an emulsion or colloid into large pieces of varied arrangements in
cooking. When producing cheddar and tofu, curdling is intentional and seductive;
when preparing a sauce or a custard, it's unintentional and regrettable.
Dusting/Dredging Dredge is a cookery term that means to coat something with flour or breadcrumbs
before cooking it. The conventional breading procedure involves dredging the item in
flour, dipping it in egg wash, and finally coating it in breadcrumbs.
Folding in In cooking and baking, folding is a precise term. It indicates that you must properly
mix two different thickness and weight combinations into one (usually) smooth
blend.
Icing Icing is a sweet, often rich coating prepared by combining sugar with a liquid, such
as water or milk, and is frequently enhanced with ingredients such as margarine, egg
whites, cream cheese, or flavorings. It is used to cover or enhance hot items such as
cakes.
1.2 List and describe at least 5 essential ingredients used in cakes, pastries and bread

Flour Cake flour is a finely milled flour made from delicate wheat that has been
blanched. It's used to make fine, delicate morsels and a velvety surface in cakes
and cupcakes. Cake flour weighs somewhat less than general-purpose flour and
has a little lower protein content due to the improved surface.
Sugar Granulated sugar is also referred to as white sugar or "traditional" sugar. The
molasses that is ordinarily included in granulated sugar has been refined away
completely. The most common use of sugar is in baking.
Leaveners Baking soda and baking powder are two synthetic leaveners. Baking soda is a
common antacid powder that, when combined with a corrosive, creates carbon
dioxide gas. Baking soda is an excellent leavener for fragile or powerless batters
like pancakes, muffins, and other quick breads since the process occurs quickly.
Section 2: Food safety practices for handling and storing cakes, pastries
and breads
2.1 Why is it important to maintain personal hygiene when working with food?
Food poisoning can be avoided with good personal cleanliness. Bacteria that cause food poisoning can be found on
anyone – including healthy people. You can transport bacteria from yourself to the food on the off chance that you
connect your nose, mouth, hair or your clothes, and subsequently food. Good personal hygiene is also advantageous.
2.2 Describe how unfrosted cakes, pastries, biscuits, muffins and loaves should be stored
Cakes, muffins, cakes, biscuits, and loaves that have just been baked are best stored unfrosted. Allow to cool completely
before removing from the baking holder and placing directly on a piece of cling film. Before wrapping it in cling wrap,
try not to put it on a platter. Wrap the plastic around the particular item tightly.

Sourdough Bread Appearance Bubbles appear in the dough, which expands into a
crisp crust.
Colour The hue ranges from bright orange to dark gold, with
darker tints appearing where the bread has been
exposed to more heat throughout the baking process. In
contrast, a pale rind will lack flavor, and a very dark
rind will be extremely bitter.
Taste Hard crust bread with a tangy flavor that varies from
hardly discernible to strongly sour, based on the recipe
and sourdough basis. "The sour flavors derive from
lactic and acetic acids created by naturally occurring
environmental bacteria, which work alongside the yeast
on the flour's carbohydrates.
Hot Cross Bun Appearance The most famous is the white cross, which represents
the Crucifixion and is circular.
Consistency Good
Shape Circle
Texture The bun's texture should be light, fluffy, and rich from
the egg and milk, but not too sweet. When paired with
fruit, it is not sickening.

Genoise Sponge Cake Appearance The cake is firm and strong, and it doesn't crumble or
fall apart easily. It can be flavored with chocolate and
other ingredients, or it can be served plain with jam,
cream, buttercream, fruit curd, and other toppings.
Consistency Génoise may need the most talent of all the sponges
because whole eggs (occasionally with an extra yolk)
are whisked to a foam, then flour and melted butter are
incorporated in.
Fruit cake Appearance Smooth top, bottom, and sides; no glossy, black, or
overheated fruit protruding when cake is cut
Consistency with the feel of a bread loaf, similar to Irish barm brack

History of Yeast: The history of yeast begins in 1680, when Leeuwenhoeck, using a magnifying lens, discovered brew
yeast globules unexpectedly. In any event, the aging cycle was not recognized until 1857, when it was crafted by French
researcher Pasteur. Pasteur agreed that yeasts were the experts in charge of aging.
History of Pastry: The European pastry-making tradition is commonly traced back to the shortcrust period of flaky
mixtures that were utilized in ancient occasions all across the Mediterranean. The Romans, Greeks, and Phoenicians all
had filo-style baked items in their culinary traditions in the ancient Mediterranean. Originally manufactured by the
Egyptians, possibly the most punctual sort of pastry was made by mixing wheat and water to make a glue, which was then
folded over meat to be prepared. Baked goods evolved in the Middle East and were then imported to Europe, where they
gained prominence throughout the archaic period.
History of Cakes: Cake has a long history dating back to ancient times. The primary cakes were nothing like the ones we
consume now. They tasted more like bread and were enhanced with nectar. According to food historians, the forerunners
of today's cakes (cycle cakes with icing) were first created in Europe during the seventeenth century.

The rate of fermentation reactions is influenced by sugar. Fermentation is accelerated by a small amount of sugar,
up to 3%. The yeast measures the extra sugar first, saving time by not having to separate the starch from the
sugar. The reason for this is because the sugar causes the yeast cells to dry out.

8.1 How can you maximise shelf life of glazed pastry products?
Water content: optimal baking and cooling conditions can be used to control water activity and
moisture content in baked goods. Use of appropriate packaging methods and materials. Modified
environment packaging, for example, decreases mold formation and extends shelf life.
8.2 Describe the optimum conditions that yeast should be stored to optimise its shelf life
Unopened bundles and containers should be stored in a cool, dry location, such as a cabinet, and can
also be stored in the refrigerator or cooler. When yeast is exposed to air, moisture, or heat, it is
extremely short-lived.
9.1 Describe the following cookery methods for cakes, pastries, breads and fillings
Picking and preparing correct tins/plates/molds utilizing takes the shape of hitter as per desired
qualities of produced goods designing and utilizing fitting pre-heat touchdown passes and

chilling ingredients and Cooling fish, turkeys, and some earth products with crushed ice or an
work surfaces ice/water mixture is simple, effective, and common. The contact between the
fish and the virus soften water penetrating through it (for example,
hydrocooling) infers cooling more than the actual ice.
cutting, shaping and A splicing meter is usually set up vertically at 45 degrees. Make a 45° cut
moulding with the trim on the saw table in the vertical left-hand position. Place the
matching trim on the saw in the vertical right-hand position at that point and
finish it (without changing the point).

12.1 What temperature should pie dough be kept at during mixing and makeup? Explain why this is important?
During mixing and cosmetics, the pie mixture should be kept cool, around 15°C. This is crucial because: - When cooled,
shortening has the best consistency. If it is warm, it will mix with the flour too quickly. In the event that it is extremely
cold, it is far too firm to be considered useful. At cool temperatures, gluten grows more slowly than at hotter
temperatures.
