For this lab my partner and I made a breakfast hash. This lab went really well because we were able to move at a fast pace but still do it correctly. Before we started the lab I was a little nervous to use a knife for chopping the vegetables because my knife skills were not impressive. As the demo was being done I learned how to properly hold a knife so I don’t cut myself. As my partner was getting the rest of ingredients, I cut the potatoes and to my surprise I was able to cut them all evenly in one shot. Some challenges I had was cutting my onions, I thought I was going to cry while chopping them evenly. Guess what I didn’t cry or cut myself. Some different knife cuts that I used were dice the garlic and chop the vegetables. We use a variety of knife cuts for presentation and for even cooking. Not having same size cuts the ingredients will cook unevenly and the presentation will be less appealing. #foodsblock4
