Mac & Cheese - Home economics
For home economics last week we made mac & cheese.
Ingredients:
Onion
Cornflour
Milk
Macaroni
Tomato
Breadcrumbs
Cheese
We used a skill called roux sauce. Roux is flour and fat cooked together and used to thicken sauces. My groups sauce turned out pretty good but I think because we were rushing it wasn't as thick as I wanted it to be but it turned out alright.
Sight:
Well it looked like mac & cheese, but I think we could have worked on our presentation a bit more we didn't have enough time to leave it to cook in the oven so it didn't really look how I wanted it to but other then that it looked edible.
Smell:
It smelt pretty good
Taste:
Our mac & cheese tasted pretty alright but since the onion didn't get enough time to cook and we didn't cut them small enough it tasted pretty weird because there was just big clumps of raw onion in our mac & cheese.

what could you do differently to improve the rating of your food product next time?
I think that we could have started cooking a bit earlier because we ended up rushing a lot and ended up having raw onion in our food.
How did the team work together:
We worked really well together there were no arguments or anything like that and everyone was helping to do something weather it be cooking or cleaning and even though we were rushing we still ended up finishing.
