For this first cooking from home assignment i chose option #1 which was “Use what you have”, so i decided to make penne with homemade tomato sauce. I didn’t use a specific recipe i just asked my mom for guidance and added things as i went along. I would definitely make this dish again because when dinner was over there were no leftovers and my family seemed to like it a lot. Although if i did make this again i might want to add ground beef into the recipe. There weren’t any big challenges with making the recipe itself it was pretty simple and quick. A success i had would probably be the flavor, it was very rich and tasty. I am most proud that everyone who ate it liked it.

I think that the most useful kitchen tool is the spatula, its used for flipping, lifting or spreading many things in the foods room. I picked it because i use it all the time, not just at school, but at home when i make meals for myself or my family. The use of a spatula is very straight forward and easy to use. The spatula was invented by Horace as a use for killing house flies. Another fun fact is that spatulas get their name from the act of turning which is like when you flip your food to cook the other side. The reason why spatulas have holes on the flipper part is so that when you scoop up food off of the pan the extra grease or liquid can drip through the pan
