Practicals day 3 of 3. Not only am I done with my practical exams, I am done with this trimester! I am more than ready for a week off!
Today I was cooking again, this time I was totally comfortable with what I was doing and with the meat I was given. My father has a beef stew that he has been making for as long as I can remember so when I was handed a hunk of beef I knew exactly what I was going to do!
I altered the recipe a bit from what dad does... I used a variety of onions (pearl, yellow and shallots) instead of just one type and put the mushrooms in at the start so that their flavor could spread through the whole dish.
That gamble played off and Chef really enjoyed the mix of different flavors that the variety of onions brought to the dish.
It was a great way to end the second trimester at Johnson & Wales!
