Day 2 requires that you know the Day 1 menu and set up PLUS add new items to the line and prep for Day 3. Please be sure to go over your successes and mistakes from Day 1, learn and move ahead, and to use what you learned today to prep for Days 2 + 3 with better planning and more confidence.
Sous Chefs: Remember that the diagram for Day 3 will be much different from the one I gave you for Day 1 and that it's up to you to design a layout that makes sense. So give it your best effort and show me the results early in the day so I can help you figure out mistakes ahead of time.
Making wonton soup - Watch the video demo and set your station up so that I can do a "live demo" for the class no later than 9:00 AM. We can then engage the rest of the class in helping shape the wontons. Set up the station exactly as it is in the vido and ask for verification before we stop the class for demo at 9:00.
Class Tasting - Everyone should bring the Tasting Sheet From the China Section of the Course Guide.
Team 6- Here's a photo of an abbreviated tasting tray for Day 2 should look like, but it's been expanded to include 30+ items. You should include whole pieces of things that would be cut up or re-hydrated for tasting (just so you can see both forms). Make sure you have all of the ingredients for the tasting before we place a supplemental order - talk to Chef about the set up early. The tasting itself will occur after service. Make 1 tray for each 3-4 students. If you have 16 students, make 4 identical trays for them to share.
When tasting is done, please cover and wrap remains - as in second photo - and store in AM cooler. We can use this to review for tests later in the cycle.
Everybody else: Make sure you know what you're supposed to be prepping ahead for Day 3 and that IT ALL GETS DONE. The reason it was assigned as prep a day ahead is because you will be in the weeds on Day 3 if you have to start from scratch.

Hi Chef- The Lacquered Pork Marinade, the recipe calls for bean sauce, is this the hot bean paste we've used in class?
ReplyDeleteNo, it's not spicy. There's a photo of the jar in the day 1 slide show or you can look it up on Google Images. The brand name is "Koon Chung"
DeleteFor group one on soup are we doing the hot and sour soup for Monday and Tuesday or just Monday just so we can get some prep done for it tomorrow?
ReplyDeleteChef- For the Braised Cabbge I see that both Station 2 and Station4 are having cabbage on their plate, however it only shows braised cabbage on day 1 for station 2. Does that mean station 4 will not be responsible for making braised cabbage and during service will be using the cabbage that was made pre-service?
