COOKING LESSON

I recently enrolled in a General Cookery class with a friend of mine in our city. The class is being held every Saturday at the Bacolod City National High School and is conducted by Mrs. Monina P. Judit. Every year the BCNHS offers various special classes such as General Cookery, Cosmetology, Dressmaking, Driving and Automotive. The whole course costs P250 and will take us around 15 Saturdays, more or less. Quite cheap and we have to contribute every Saturday for the food ingredients for P50 or more.

So far, I learned how to make the chiffon cake, white cloud (gelatin), morcon, mango cake, butter icing and tuna fettuccine. I am not an expert in the kitchen so attending Mrs. Judit's class is an eye-opener for me. Especially for the baking session since I own an oven and a mixer but I haven't make use of them fully. I did try to bake a cake and some muffins based on a recipe book but I lack the technique, so I find the cooking class really helpful. For one, I don't know what a soft peak and a hard peak for beating eggs is until now.
