Mexican Week Challenge

Hola! For food tech this week it was Mexican week! We Mexican mince dip and quesadillas using tortillas with chilli beans and vegetables. I work with the vegetarian group so our mince dip obviously didn't have any meat in it.

Mexican Mince Dip
The Mexican dip tasted really nice. There were the right amount of vegetables and I could really taste the taco seasoning. Also, the cream cheese made the meal even better, it just added a good amount of creaminess. Overall, it was really good and it's something I could possibly make for my own family.

Quesadilla
Now onto our second meal. Preparing it honestly wasn't even as hard as I thought it would be, really simple in my opinion. Anyways, I liked some of the chunkiness of it and I feel like the sauce and the red onions we used helped bring out the real flavour!

Rice ball challenge!

Kon'nichiwa! On Wednesdays and Fridays, my class takes part in Food Technology. 2 weeks were in Italy so for our 2 sessions we made pasta! But last week were in Japan and made sushi! Here's some information about mine.

What was the texture of the rice?
- It was fragile.
- It was also very soft.

What did it smell like?
- It smelt like the vinegar our teacher put into the rice.
- The smell of the nori was also strong.

What did it taste like?
- I put wasabi in mine and you could really taste the hint of spice.
- Out of all vegetables, the capsicum stood out to me the most.

What were the flavours
- There was a range of different flavours from the vegetables, the vinegar, and the nori.

What was the colour of the rice ball?
- All the ingredients were covered with rice but at the bottom, some carrots peeked through most rice balls.
