Introduction

The Technology and Livelihood Education (TLE) for junior high school
and Technical-Vocational-Livelihood Education (TVL) for senior high school is
one track in the implementation of the K to 12 Basic Education Program
(BEP). The TLE/TVL Track has four strands, namely: Agri-Fishery Arts, Home
Economics, Industrial Arts, and Information and Communication Technology.
Learners in Grades 7 and 8 take exploratory courses under the track; tackling
common competencies that they would need, helping them pursue a career in
TVL. Their learnings and competencies are further enhanced in Grades 9 and
10, up to Senior High.

CONCEPT REVIEW

LEARNING OUTCOME 1:
ASSESS PERSONAL ENTREPRENEURIAL COMPETENCIES

At the start of your journey in learning Cookery, the Personal

DEPED COPY
Entrepreneurial Competencies and entrepreneurial mindsets were introduced.
In this concept review, you will be reminded of these lessons and you get to
assess whether or not you have the competencies found among
entrepreneurs. In addition, a brief lesson on the Business Environment and
Idea Generation is provided to help contextualize how your skills might be
useful for an entrepreneurial venture. Read on to find out

Entrepreneur
An entrepreneur is comprehensively defined by Zimmerer &
Scarborough (2005) as someone who “creates a new business in the face of
risk and uncertainty for the purpose of achieving profit and growth by
identifying significant opportunities and assembling the necessary resources
to capitalize on them” (p.3). They are the ones who act on their business
ideas.

Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies


There has been many studies to characterize “the entrepreneurial
personality”; although there is no isolated set of traits that guarantee success,
there were identified behaviors found common to most successful
entrepreneurs. There is a well-known research on human behavior done by
McClelland and McBer which identified 10 behavioral patterns organized into
three general clusters: the achievement, planning, and power clusters
(SERDEF, 2007; 1998). It was found out that these behaviors were also
typical entrepreneurial behaviors. The entrepreneurial qualities, more known
as the Personal Entrepreneurial Competencies (PECs) are as follows:

Achievement Cluster
∙ Opportunity seeking – Entrepreneurs have a good eye for spotting
business opportunities and acts on these opportunities appropriately. ∙
Persistence - Entrepreneurs do not easily give up in the face of obstacles.
They will take repeated or different actions to overcome the hurdles of
business. This includes making a personal sacrifice or extraordinary effort
to complete a job.

mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
∙ Commitment to work contract - Entrepreneurs do their best to satisfy
customers and to deliver what is promised. They accept full
responsibility for problems when completing a job for customers.
∙ Risk-taking - Entrepreneurs are known for taking calculated risks and
doing tasks that are moderately challenging.
∙ Demand for efficiency and quality - Entrepreneurs see to it that the
business meets or exceeds existing standards of excellence and
exerts efforts to improve past performance and do things better. They
set high but realistic standards.

Planning Cluster

DEPED COPY
∙ Goal setting - Entrepreneurs know how to set specific, measurable,
attainable, realistic, and time-bound (SMART) goals. It is easy for them
to divide large goals into short-term goals.
∙ Information seeking - Entrepreneurs update themselves with new
information about their customers, the market, suppliers, and
competitors. This is rooted to their innate sense of curiosity.
∙ Systematic planning and monitoring - Entrepreneurs develop and use
logical, step-by-step plans to reach their goals. They monitor progress
towards goals and to alter strategies when necessary.
Power Cluster
∙ Persuasion and networking - Entrepreneurs know how to use the right
strategies to influence or persuade other people. They have naturally
established a network of people who they can turn to in order to
achieve their objectives.
∙ Self-confidence - Entrepreneurs have a strong belief in themselves and
their own abilities. They have self-awareness and belief in their own
ability to complete a difficult task or meet a challenge.

Interpretation
A lower score means a ‘weak’ performance and a higher score
translates to a ‘strong’ performance on a particular competency. A ‘weak’
performance should be regarded as a challenge or an opportunity for
improvement rather than a cause for worry. Improving a competency entails
enough determination, correct practice and strategies, and time for
maturation.

LEARNING OUTCOME 2:
UNDERSTAND BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT & BUSINESS IDEAS

Business Environment and Market

The study of the business environment in a particular location has far reaching
and long-term effects on a small or micro enterprise’s viability. In fact, business
ideas and opportunities are partly shaped or determined by the

DEPED COPY
business location. Unless it is possible to migrate to more favorable locations,
the ideas and opportunities for business will oftentimes be delimited to the
surrounding areas.
The business environment consists of both the tangible and intangible factors
that affect either the external or internal business operations. They may
include the land area available for economic zones, the physical layout and
barriers such as rivers, parks or lakes, and building obstructions as well as
the transportation network; all of which are considered tangible factors. They
also include the demography of clients and suppliers, the competitors in the
locale/area and the available technology for production. The intangible
factors, on the other hand, include the sub-culture, industry trends, economic
and government activity or the political situations in the area.

Natural and Physical

This concerns the physical location of a business’ store. The natural


environment also pertains to the natural and man-made structures that may
enhance the beauty of the location, such as a park or a sea front view, or

20

All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means - electronic or
mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
serve as barrier to the location, such as a dump site or high rise structures
that obstruct a view. The living condition in an area also serves as a standard
for the ambience you want to create for your store.

There is also a phenomenon referred to as clustering, where a particular type


of product is offered within the same area. For instance, most guitar shops
are clustered along the intersection of V. Mapa and Aurora Avenue in Metro
Manila; Filipino craft stores crowd the area under the Quiapo Bridge; or car
accessories are found in Banawe area.

The key word to have in mind when scanning the physical environment

DEPED COPY
is the visibility of your intended store to the potential clients.

Demography

This pertains to the number of people living in the area, their age,
gender, socio-economic status, family size, religion, and even growth trends.
These are invaluable information that can help entrepreneurs in matching
their product to the target market, in deciding for the marketing strategy,
pricing and product packaging among others.

Culture

Culture or sub-culture, being the total way of life, ideas and customs of
a set of people or society, primarily influence the types of products that are
acceptable to a particular locality. For example, the influence of the Japanese
culture gave rise to minimalist designs. A sub-culture also shapes the
‘emotional’ environment of an area. For instance, the feeling of ‘fear’ for a
specific location may serve as a barrier for a business; a place where one
does not feel safe because of the prevalence of crime will discourage
entrepreneurs.

Changes in the lifestyle, which is brought about by changes in the population


demography and the economy, also affect a business. These lifestyle
changes may be the increase of women’s participation in the world of work,
change in buying patterns and shift in tastes.

Government Regulations

The laws and policies of the national and local government units also
influence the business operations. Some examples of policies that directly
affect entrepreneurs are the imposition or removal of taxes for products, the
establishment of economic zones and assistance in product labeling and
packaging of products. In addition, improvement of facilities and roads

21

All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means - electronic or
mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
improve transportation network that facilitates transfer of products from one
area to another or promotes accessibility for consumers.

Economy

This pertains to the management of resources and study of the system of


production, distribution, and consumption of goods and services. A country’s
economy influences both the entrepreneurs and consumers as it relates to the
financial matters of business like taxes and interest rates and to the quality of
life, cost of utilities and services among others. Even small scale entrepreneurs
must learn to study economic indicators to improve
DEPED COPY
business forecasts; such as when to buy certain materials and supplies, when
to open a store or introduce new products based on consumer spending, or
when to hire employees. Some examples of economic indicators include the
(a) Gross Domestic Product (GDP) which increases when a country’s
economy is doing well; (b) Unemployment rate which indicates that more
unemployed people usually signal an economy getting worse; and (c) Price
Indexes and Inflation rates which determine the buying power of consumers.

The existing enterprises, who are either direct or indirect competitors,


are also part of the business environment. It is important to scout for products
or services that answer a similar need to what you intend to provide.
Think of how you can create a niche that will differentiate your product
from the other businesses – either in specifying a target market or in
differentiating your product quality or price. The key concept to think about is
acquiring a reasonable market share despite of the competition.
Technology

Technological changes are inventions based on the application of


science that create new product or process improvements. Some examples of
technological changes are mobile tools that enable online connection, new
business tools for analysis and database, social networks and modern, digital
equipment. These advances in technology result to efficiency and productivity
at a lesser cost. It can be observed that sending message through email
provides a cheaper and faster means compared to hand-delivered mails
(snail mails). An entrepreneur can benefit from technological changes by
identifying the appropriate technological solution available in the area or
locale.

At this point, it must be quite clear why an environment scanning of an area


considered as business site is helpful for the entrepreneur. In fact, the impact
of the factors in the business environment does not only include the business
operation, but is even the relevant start of the venture – during the business
idea generation and opportunity identification stage. A concise

guide on how to spot and identify business opportunities are provided in the
following section. Keep reading!
Spotting and Identifying Business Opportunities

Spotting business opportunities is one of the most essential aspects of


entrepreneurship. An entrepreneur must have a keen eye for identifying
opportunities that can potentially turn into a good product or business venture.
At the same time, an entrepreneur should also know which opportunities to
drop and which ones to develop.

DEPED COPY
Idea Generation

The first step in identifying a good business opportunity is to look for


many opportunities. This is called the idea generation phase (SERDEF,
2007). The following are good sources of business ideas (Hisrich, Peters, &
Shepherd, 2008; Looser & Schlapfer, 2001).
1. Personal hobbies and interests;
2. Everyday experiences, travel, and adventures;
3. Suggestions from family members and friends;
4. Problems that need solutions;
5. Problems with existing products;
6. Books, magazines, news;
7. Observing, listening around you;

Screening Business Ideas

Once you have generated a number of business opportunities and


ideas, the next step is to select and screen these. Though there can be many
ways to do this, a good way to proceed is to screen your ideas based on 1)
your personality and personal preferences and 2) the characteristics of a
good business (SERDEF, 2007). Consider the following criteria:
1. Personality and Personal Preferences
a. Personal Preference
b. Education, Skills, and Experience
c. Work Experience
d. Support from family and friends
2. Characteristics of a good business
a. Demand for Product
b. Availability of skills, raw materials, technology, and capital
c. Profitability

SWOT Analysis
Once you have chosen your business idea, the next step is to conduct
a SWOT analysis in order to determine the Strengths, Weaknesses,
Opportunities and Threats of your potential business. This step will help you
improve your business of choice and prepare for challenges. The table below
will help you differentiate among these four features:

Learning Outcome 1

Clean, Sanitize and Store Kitchen Tools and Equipment


At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:

1. Recognize kitchen tools and equipment to be cleaned and sanitized;


2. Identify the chemicals to be utilized in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen
tools and equipment;
3. Prepare cleaning agents in accordance with the manufacture’s
instruction/procedure;

DEPED COPY
4. Clean and sanitize kitchen tools and equipment; and
5. Store cleaned kitchen tools and equipment.

Cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools and equipment must be part of the
standard operating procedures that make up your
food safety program. Improper cleaning and
sanitizing kitchen surfaces allow harmful
microorganisms to be transferred from one food to
another.

The following are list of cooking materials,


kitchen utensils and equipment that are
commonly found in the kitchen.

Cooking Materials

Aluminum is mostly used in the kitchen and the


most popular because it is lightweight, attractive
and less expensive; It requires care to keep it
shiny and clean; It also gives even heat
distribution no matter what heat temperature
you have. It is available in sheet or cast
aluminum. Since it is a soft metal, the lighter
gauges will dent and scratch easily, making the
utensil unusable. Aluminum turns dark when
used with alkalis, such as potatoes, beets,
carrots and other vegetables. While acid
vegetables like tomatoes will brighten it.

Stainless Steel is the most popular material


used for tools and equipment, but it is more
expensive. It is easier to clean and shine and
will not wear out easily. Choose those with
copper, aluminum or laminated steel bottoms to
spread heat and keep the pot from getting heat
dark spots. Stainless steel utensils maybe
bought in many gauges, from light to heavy.

1. To remove stain, use 2 table spoon of liquid bleach
per cup of water when soaking and cleaning.
2. Use baking soda to remove grease crust and boiled
vinegar as final rinse.
3. Use a nylon scrub.

Cast Iron is durable but must be kept oiled to


avoid rusting. Salad oil with no salt or
shortening can be rubbed inside and out and
dried. Wash with soap (not detergent) before
using.
Double boiler is used when temperature must
be kept below boiling, such as for egg sauces,
puddings; it is used to keep food warm without
overcooking.

Teflon is a special coating applied inside


aluminum or steel pots and pans. It prevents
food from sticking to the pan.

It is easier to wash and clean, but be careful not


to scratch the Teflon coating with sharp
instrument such as knife or fork. Use a wooden
or a plastic spatula to turn or mix food inside.

Chemicals used in cleaning and sanitizing kitchen tools and equipment.

Cleaning is the process of removing food and other types of soil from
a surface, such as a dish, glass, or cutting board. Cleaning is done with a
cleaning agent that removes food, soil, or other substances. The right
cleaning agent must be selected because not all cleaning agents can be used
on food-contact surfaces. (A food-contact surface is the surface of equipment
or utensil that food normally comes into contact.) For example, glass
cleaners, some metal cleaners, and most bathroom cleaners cannot be used
because they might leave an unsafe residue on the food contact surface. The
label should indicate if the product can be used on a food contact surface.
The right cleaning agent must also be selected to make cleaning easy

Cleaning Compound
Detergents These are cleaning
agents, solvents or any substance
used to wash tablewares, surfaces,
and equipments. Example: soap,
soap powders, cleaners, acids,
volatile solvents and abrasives.

Solvent Cleaners commonly

DEPED COPY
referred to as degreasers, they are
used on surfaces where grease has
burned on. Ovens and grills are
examples of areas that need
frequent degreasing. These products
are alkaline based and are
formulated to dissolve grease.

Acid Cleaners used periodically in


removing mineral deposits and other
soils that detergents cannot eliminate
such as scale in washing machines
and steam tables, lime buildup on
dishwashing machines and rust on
shelving. (Example: phosphoric
acid, nitric acid, etc.) These products
vary depending on the specific
purpose of the product.

Abrasives are generally used to


remove heavy accumulations of soil
that are difficult to remove with
detergents, solvents and acids.
These products must be carefully
used to avoid damage to the surface
being cleaned.

Other chemicals used for cleaning and/or sanitizing kitchen equipment


and utensils are the following:
1. Ammonia 4. Carbonic Acid
2. Dish washing liquid 5. Timsen
3. Chlorine 6. Disinfectants and Soaps

Review of Lesson 1 (Learning Outcome 1)


Below are pictures of chemicals used to clean and sanitize
kitchen tools and equipment. Write your answers in your test
notebook.

A. Name Me
DEPED COPY
1. 2. 3.

Are you ready to clean kitchen tools and equipment? Below are procedures
on how to wash dishes.

Steps in Washing Dishes

1. Wear rubber gloves if you have dry


hands or other skin problem. If you are
wearing long sleeves, roll them up or put
them under the gloves. Wear aprons
too.

2. Scrape all the large pieces of food on the


dishes and place it in a compost bin or
garbage can.

3. Stack the dishes in the proper order


namely: glassware, silverware,
chinaware, and utensils. Stack them to
the right of the sink so that work
progresses from right to left.

4. Fill the sink with water and add a


considerable amount of detergent. The
hotter the water, the better it’s sanitizing
and grease-cutting properties but use
tolerable heat (66°C /150°F or above) so
not to scald yourself. Use rubber gloves.
5. Wash the lightest soiled items first.
Start with glasses, cups, and flatware.
Soap each piece individually and rinse in

DEPED

COPY
hot water.

6. Wash plates, bowls, and serving dishes.


Remember to scrape these items before
washing. Soap each piece gently and
individually and rinse in hot water.
Remember to keep an eye when you
should change the dish washing water.

7. Wash pots and pans last. Soak them


first. Wash the pans thoroughly and don’t
forget to clean the bottoms. If anything
was burnt or overcooked to pots or
casserole dishes, put a little extra soap
and water in it and let it stand while you
wash the other dishes. Take note that
any oil residue left will lead to burnt food
during the next cooking session.

8. Lay your dishes out on a rack to air-dry


or wipe them clean with a towel.

9. There should be no visible matter and


no "greasy" feel. Run a hand over the
dish to ensure that they are thoroughly
cleaned. If there are still some grease
remaining, consider rewashing the item.

10.Rinse out brush, sponge and allow to


dry. Sterilize your equipment often using
boiling water with bleach. When a
sponge or brush starts to smell
unpleasant, throw it away.

11.Wipe down the sink and your tools,


Wipe down the sink, dish drainer, and
dishpan. Any rags, dish cloths or

sponges need to be left out to air dry, or
thrown into the washing machine.
Remember to replace sponge and rags
frequently.

Tips and warnings to observe in washing the dishes


∙ Wash glassware first before greasy pots and pans.
∙ Rubber gloves will protect hands and manicures, and allow you to use
hotter water for washing and/or rinsing.
∙ Dishes may be hand dried with a clean cloth.
∙ Try adding a tablespoon of baking soda to soapy water to soften hands
while cutting grease.
∙ Never dump sharp knives into soapy dishwater where they cannot be
seen.
∙ Laundry detergents or automatic dishwater detergents should not be
used for hand washing dishes.
∙ Keep dishwashing liquid out of the reach of children.
Additional Tips:
1. Dishes can be washed easily if you keep them under the water while
scrubbing them for particles to lift away. Bring the dish out of the water
to check for any missed spots.
2. Stacking a few dishes in the sink at a time allows dishes a few minutes
of soaking time while you wash another dish.
3. Try drying pots and pans with a paper towel to reduce residue from the
pan which causes staining the dishcloth.
4. Don’t soak aluminum while dishwashing for it may cause darkening.
Dish washing silverware can be tricky. Use a lint free cloth for drying
silverware.

Washing with the Dishwasher Machine

Load it Up
Fill your dishwasher logically. Establish
a routine, and stick with it for most loads.

DEPED

COPY
Things to consider: Many dishwashers
have a variety of spacings to accommodate
large bowls, small bowls, utensils, dishes,
and plates of varying sizes—on the bottom
shelf. The top shelf is given to shorter items
such as glasses, mugs, jars, and long
utensils such as spatulas and stirring
spoons.
Don't crowd the dishes. Fill your
dishwasher full, but not crammed—you'll
maximize the cleaning capacity of your
dishwasher and minimize excessive water
usage.

Add detergent. Fill the detergent


dispenser with cleanser either liquid or
powder and close it up.

- You can add extra cleanser in a


secondary cup should your dishes be
excessively filthy.

- Add a rinsing agent to prevent spotting, if


necessary.

How to Clean, Remove Stains, Sanitize and Store:

The kitchen cutting board gets a lot of use and this means that it gets a
lot of exposure to bacteria. Proper cleaning of the cutting board is essentials
to your good health. Whether you use a wood or plastic cutting board, you
should clean and sanitize it after use.

Clean the Cutting Board:

After you used the cutting board for slicing, dicing, or chopping all
kinds of neat goodies, use a metal scraper or spatula to scrape away any
remaining bits and pieces of food. Throw the scraps into the garbage
disposal, garbage receptacle, or trash bin.

Scrub the board with hot, soapy water thoroughly. If your dishwasher
reaches a temperature of at least 165°F, then you can probably place a high
density plastic cutting board into the dishwasher. Moreover, if your
dishwasher has an antibacterial cycle, use it to wash the cutting board.
Otherwise, scrub it by hand. Allow the board to air dry.

Removing Stains from the Cutting Board

To remove stains from the cutting board, you can use the following
procedure: wet the stained area with water and sprinkle it with salt and allow
the salt to melt undisturbed for twenty-four hours.

Rinse the salt from the cutting board with clean water. Using the salt and
clean water, create a paste. Use a clean nylon scrubbing sponge or a

42

All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means - electronic or
mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
clean toothbrush to scour or scrub the paste on the stained area of the cutting
board. Rinse the area clean with fresh water. Repeat the procedure to
guarantee that you have removed all of the stain. Rinse the board clean.
Scrub the cutting board with hot, soapy water and rinse with clean water.
Allow it to air dry.

Sanitizing the Cutting Board:

Plastic and wooden cutting boards can be sanitized using a diluted liquid
chlorine bleach solution. For this solution, combine one teaspoon of bleach to
one quart of water. Pour the solution onto the entire surface area of
DEPED COPY
the board and allow it to sit undisturbed for several minutes. Rinse the board
clean with water. Allow it to air dry or use a clean cloth to dry it.

If you prefer, you may use a vinegar solution in place of the


bleach solution. Simply combine one part vinegar to five
parts water. Use this solution in the same manner as the one
explained for the bleach solution.

Storing the Cutting Board:

Once the cutting board has completely dried, store it


vertically or in an upright position. This helps to avoid
moisture from getting trapped underneath the board and the
accumulation of dust or grime.

Methods of Cleaning Equipment:

Foam – You use this to increase the contact


time of the chemical solutions to improve
cleaning with less mechanical force.

Clean In Place (CIP) – It is utilized to clean the


interior surfaces of tanks and pipelines of liquid
process equipment. A chemical solution is
circulated through a circuit of tanks and or lines
then return to a central reservoir allowing the
chemical solution to be reused. Time,
temperature and mechanical force are
manipulated to achieve maximum cleaning.

Clean Out of Place (COP) – is utilized to clean the parts of filters and parts of
other equipment. This requires disassembly for proper cleaning. Parts

removed for cleaning are placed in a circulation tank and cleaned using a
heated chemical solution and agitation.
Mechanical – it normally involves the use of
brush either by hand or a machine such as a
floor scrubber. Mechanical cleaning uses friction
for food soil removal.

Fundamental Cleaning Procedures


COPY
1. Scrape and Pre-rinse – soiled equipment surfaces are scraped and
rinsed with warm water to remove loose food soils.
2. Cleaning Cycle – the removal of residual food soils from equipment
surfaces is based on the manipulation of the four basic cleaning factors
and the method of cleaning. Typically, alkaline chemical solutions are
used for the cleaning cycle.
3. Rinse – rinse all surfaces with cold to hot water, depending on the
temperature of the cleaning cycle, to thoroughly remove all remaining
chemical solution and food soil residues.
4. Acid Rinse – a mild acid rinse of the equipment neutralizes any
alkaline residues left and removes any mineral soil present.
5. Sanitize – all equipment surfaces are rinsed or flooded with a sanitizing
agent. Both time and chemical concentration are critical for optimum
results.

Factors that influence the cleaning process

∙ Soil – varying degrees of food soil will be deposited on the equipment


during production. These food soils will require complete removal
during the cleaning process and will affect the cleaning compound
used, along with the method of cleaning.

∙ Time – the longer a cleaning solution remains in contact with the


equipment surface, the greater the amount of food soil that is removed.
More time in contact with the soil reduces the chemical concentration
requirements.
∙ Temperature – soils are affected by temperature in varying degrees. In
the presence of a cleaning solution most soils become more readily
soluble as the temperature increases.

44

All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means - electronic or
mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
∙ Chemical concentrations – it varies depending on the chemical itself,
type of food soil, and the equipment to be cleaned. Concentration will
normally be reduced as time and temperature are increased.

∙ Mechanical force – is as simple as hand scrubbing with a brush or as


complex as turbulent flow and pressure inside a pipeline. This aids in
soil removal and typically reduces time, temperature and concentration
requirements.

∙ Water – minerals in hard water can reduce the effectiveness of some

DEPED COPY
detergents or a sanitizers. Water pH ranges generally from pH5-8.5.
However, highly acidic water may require additional buffering agents.
Water used for cleaning and sanitizing must be potable and pathogen
free.

Finally you’ve done the cleaning but ooops… not so fast because after
cleaning the kitchen tools and equipment the next thing you will do is to
sanitize them. How?

The following topics are the methods of sanitizing kitchen tools and
equipment after cleaning them.
Sanitizing is done using heat, radiation, or chemicals. Heat and
chemicals are commonly used as a method for sanitizing in a restaurant than
radiation. The item to be sanitized must first be washed properly before it can
be properly sanitized. Some chemical sanitizers, such as chlorine and iodine,
react with food and soil and so will be less effective on a surface that has not
DEPED

COPY
been properly cleaned.

Methods of Sanitizing
1. Thermal Sanitizing. It involves the use of
hot water or steam. There are three methods
of using heat to sanitize surfaces – steam,
hot water, and hot air. Hot water is the most
common method used in restaurants. If hot
water is used in the third compartment of a
three-compartment sink, it must be at least
171°F (77°C). If a high-temperature ware
washing machine is used to sanitize cleaned
dishes, the final sanitizing rinse must be at
least 180°F (82°C). For stationary rack, single temperature machines, it
must be at least 165°F (74°C). Cleaned items must be exposed to these
temperatures for at least 30 seconds.

2. Chemicals. Approved chemical sanitizers are chlorine, iodine, and


quaternary ammonium. Different factors influence the effectiveness of
chemical sanitizers. The three factors that must be considered are:
a. Concentration. The presence of too little sanitizer will result in an
inadequate reduction of harmful microorganisms. Too much can
be toxic.
b. Temperature. Generally, chemical sanitizers work best in water
that is between 55°F (13°C) and 120°F (49°C).
c. Contact time. In order for the sanitizer to kill harmful
microorganisms, the cleaned item must be in contact with the
sanitizer (either heat or approved chemical) for the recommended
length of time

9 Steps in Organizing Kitchen Cabinets

Pretend it has a glass door and that everyone is going to see what’s inside.

1. Remove all the equipment and scrub shelves with soapy water.
2. Think about what you reach most often and make sure it gets a
position that is easy to reach.
3. Take a cabinet full of glasses and line them up by color. Make sure all
of the front are facing out and straight. (Jeff Lewis-Style)
4. Take a step back after one shelf is done and make someone else look
at what you have done.
5. They should be stored in a clean dry place adequately protected
against vermin and other sources of contamination.
6. Cups, bowls, and glasses must be inverted for storage.
7. When not stored in closed cupboards or lockers, utensils and
containers must be covered or inverted whenever possible. Utensils
must be stored on the bottom shelves of open cabinets below the
working top level.
8. Racks, trays and shelves must be made of materials that are
imperious, corrosive-resistant, non-toxic, smooth, durable and resistant
to chipping.

Drawers must be made of the same materials and kept clean. Full-lined
drawers are not acceptable, but the use of clean and removable towels for
lining drawers is acceptable.

First aid procedure caused by chemical poisoning.


What to do?

∙ If the person has been exposed to poisonous fumes, such as carbon


monoxide, get him or her into fresh air immediately.
∙ If the person swallowed the poison, remove anything remaining in the
mouth.

∙ If the suspected poison is a household cleaner or other chemical,


read the label and follow instructions for accident poisoning. If the
product is toxic, the label will likely advise you to call the
hospital/doctor.
∙ Follow treatment directions given by poison centers.
∙ If the poison is spilled on the person’s clothing, remove the clothing
and pour the body with continuous tap water.

Precaution: Don’t administer Ipecac syrup (a medicine that causes vomiting
used to partially empty a person’s stomach after a poison).

The total facility cleaning and maintenance program of a food service


department must be planned to reflect concern for sanitation as “a way of
life”. Facility sanitation results can be obtained through:

∙ Establishing high standards


∙ Rigid scheduling of assignments that are clearly understood by workers
∙ Ongoing training
DEPED COPY
∙ Proper use of cleaning supplies
∙ Provision of proper materials and equipments to accomplish tasks, and ∙
Frequent meaningful inspections and performance reviews

Regular cleaning of counter tops and floors needs to be done daily and is
usually assigned as part of the your regular daily duties. Other cleaning tasks
that need to be done less frequently must be scheduled and assigned as
needed for instance, daily, weekly, monthly. General cleaning of floors,
windows, walls and certain equipment should be assigned to personnel and it
is often done in cooperation with the housekeeping and maintenance
departments of the organizations.

Each of the duties on the assignment list must be explained in detail on a


written work sheet or “job breakdown” for the employee to follow. Job
breakdown includes name of the task, tools and equipment and materials to
be used, and a step by step list of what to do and how to do it.

All food contact equipments, containers and utensils must be cleaned


thoroughly after each use. This is especially true of meat grinders, slicers,
cutting boards, knives, mixers, peelers, dishwashing machines and stationary
can openers in order to prevent any cross-contamination.

How to Keep Your Kitchen Clean and Safe

Although they are not visible threats, the many micro-organisms


waiting in your kitchen can infect your cooking and eating, and consequently
have a negative effect on your health. Food poisoning and diarrhea are just
some conditions which might be caused by preparing food in a dirty, germ
infested kitchen. In order to prevent these, you need to make sure that your
kitchen is kept clean and safe from bacteria and other germs.

Here are ways to ensure the cleanliness of your kitchen and keep
bacteria at bay.

1. Remove unnecessary clutter from surfaces. Discard appliances and


gadgets that you don't use any more, as unused appliances would only
tend to gather dust. Be sure that any appliances which are still
maintained and used are stored in a safe place that is out of reach of
children.

2. Keep your refrigerator clean and tidy. Before you do your weekly
shopping, remove old and rotten food and clean shelves and racks.

DEPED COPY
Look at expiration dates and be sure to label any containers of
homemade food or leftovers. Don't make a habit of keeping food for too
long in the fridge; rotten food will breed bacteria, and may even
contaminate fresh food that is kept in the same area.

3. Use a rubbish bin with a lid to keep odors out that attracts flies and
other insects. Empty it as soon as it smells, even if it is not yet full. You
should ideally do this every day.

4. Wash and disinfect your rubbish bin once a week. This will ensure that
any germs which might have remained even after you emptied out the
rubbish will die and cannot multiply. Also, this will remove any foul
smells which might be emanating from the trash bin.

5. Use separate chopping boards for different kinds of food. Keep


separate chopping boards for your meat and your vegetables to reduce
the spread of bacteria. Clean the meat chopping board extra carefully,
especially after cutting chicken, as raw food has a higher tendency of
containing bacteria.

6. Change the dishcloth you wipe surfaces with every day. Use a different
cloth for surfaces than for dishes. Wash the cloth with hot water and, as
appropriate, bleach. Use separate towels for hands and dishes, and
change both of those regularly, too.

7. Use a paper towel for any mess that is particularly likely to cause
contamination, such as raw meat or eggs, and anything that has
fallen on the floor. It is better to use cleaning material that you can

8. Keep kitchen floors free from debris and grease by sweeping and
washing regularly. If something has spilled, make sure to mop it right
away instead of letting the mess stay there. Aside from making sure that
germs do not use the spillage as a breeding ground, immediate
mopping would also prevent unwanted accidents such as slipping from
occurring.

9. Don't leave dirty crockery and pans to fester where they can attract
harmful bacteria. Wash dishes with hot water and soap as soon as
you're done using them.

DEPED COPY
10. Wash surfaces that get touched. Periodically wipe doorknobs, handles,
buttons and controls, and light switches in and around your kitchen with
cleaning agents. Even if they seem clean to the naked eye, they may
already be harboring bacteria.

11. Wash your hands before handling food and again if you sneeze or
cough, blow your nose, go to the bathroom, or touch high-use surfaces.

Safety measures

The following are safety measures that you should do when using cleaning
agents:

1. Ensure adequate ventilation


2. Have knowledge of basic first aid
3. Wear cotton clothing to cover your limbs and other parts of your body that
might be exposed to the cleaning agent.
4. Wear suitable footwear–it should be closed in and have a steel toe
5. Wear industrial strength, thick plastic or rubber gloves
6. Wear protective eye and face wear

History of Appetizer
Appetizers were originally introduced by the Athenians as a buffet in
the early third century B.C. They would serve sea urchins, cockles, sturgeon,
and garlic. However they were unpopular to start as these tiny meals weren't
followed up with a main course, leaving everyone hungry and wanting more. It
wasn't until the nineteenth century that appetizers truly caught on, as meals
evolved into more of a structured ordeal.

Aperitifs came about by the Romans and were classified as a liquid


appetizer that typically contained alcohol. In addition to inciting hunger like
food appetizers, the purposes for aperitifs were also meant to help with the
imminent digestion process. These drinks would be shared from a single
glass and passed around the table to all members of the eating party. Aperitifs
are still utilized today, typically with the company of food appetizers.

The word itself, "appetizer," as being used in America and England in


the1860s, is more of a local flavor than "hors d'oeuvres." For a time,
appetizers are served between the main course and dessert as a refresher,
but by the twentieth century they had taken their place as a precursor to the
main course.
On the other hand it is said that appetizers are the dishes that can truly be
considered Filipino because we are best known for using our hands to eat the
small finger foods that come with the first course. Appetizers can include
anything from fish to meat, nuts and chips. They are often served before
dinner or at large family lunches.

This lesson deals with the equipment used in the production of appetizers,
classifications of appetizers, identification of ingredients used for

After the warm-up activity proceed to the next topic about appetizers.

Appetizers are foods which stimulate the appetite, through their


attractive appearance, fragrance or appealing flavor. It is a small piece or a
portion of highly seasoned food, usually served before a meal to induce and
stimulate one’s appetite. It gives appreciation to the food we eat.

A good appetizer, whether hot or cold should be light and served in


small quantities, Fresh vegetable and salads, fruits, or meat or even fish can
be made into appetizers.

Classification of Appetizers:

1. Cocktails are usually juices of orange, pineapple, grapefruit or


tomatoes served with cold salad dressings. It may be in the form of a
fruit or vegetable juice mixed with little alcoholic beverage or seafood
like shrimps, crabs, or lobsters served with slightly seasoned sauce.
2. Hors D’ Oeuvres refers to small portions of highly seasoned foods. It is
a combination of canapés, olives, stuffed celery, pickled radishes, and
fish. It is served on individual plate when guests are seated.
Sometimes this is simply placed on a platter and passed around. Hors
d’oeuvres are served cold or hot.
3. Canapés are made out of thin slices of bread in different shapes. The
bread may be toasted, sautéed in butter or dipped in a well-seasoned
mixture of egg, cheese, fish, or meat then deep-fat fried. It is a finger
food consisting of three parts: a base, a spread or topping and garnish.
They could be served hot or cold. There are no set recipes for the
making of canapés. You may create your own combination of several
different colored items on the cut pieces of bread, toasted or fried and
biscuits etc. The larger canapés are termed as ZAKUSKIS after the
Chef Zakuski.
4. Relishes/Crudités are pickled item which are raw, crisp vegetables
such as julienne carrots or celery sticks. Relishes are generally placed
before the guest in a slightly, deep, boat shape dish.

mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
5. Petite Salads are small portions of salads and usually display the
characteristics found in most salads.
6. Chips and Dips are popular accompaniments to potato chips,
crackers, and raw vegetables. Proper consistency in the preparation is
important for many dip. It must not be so thick that it cannot be
scooped up without breaking the chip or crackers, but it must be thick
enough to stick to the items used as dippers.
7. Fresh Fruits and Vegetables are the simplest appetizers. Fruits are good
appetizers because they give an attractive appearance, fragrance, appealing
taste and delicious flavor. For example, you could serve a platter of thinly
sliced cucumbers, chunks of red bell pepper

DEPED COPY
and baby carrots. For a fruit tray, consider serving red and green
grapes, as well as chunks of mango with toothpicks inserted in them.
Since appetizers are always easy to pick up with the fingers, they
should never be drippy or messy.
8. Finger foods are variety of appetizers wherein the only requirement is
that you keep everything small enough to be picked up with the fingers
and eaten with little mess. If you want to serve your favorite homemade
sausages, cut them into small pieces, wrap them with a small piece of
pastry shell and bake. Or, serve your favorite baked sweet potato fries
with a mayonnaise-based dipping sauce. Individual quiches filled with
ham and cheese is another good option.
The following are examples of appetizers including the materials/
ingredients on how to prepare Canapés
Canapés – bite-size open faced sandwiches consist of tiny portions of
food presented on bases of bread, toast, or pastry easily handled and eaten.

Canapés Consists of Three Parts

1. Base – holds the spread and garnish. Crackers and toasts are firmer and
give a pleasing texture and crispness to the canapé.

Suggestions for canapé bases are:

Bread
cutouts Toast cutouts Crackers

Tiny biscuits Polenta cutouts Miniature pancakes

2. Spread - placed on top of the base so the garnish sticks to


it without falling off.

Three types of spreads

a) Flavored butter – made from softened butters with


flavorings.

b) Flavored Cream Cheese -made from flavored


butters, except cream cheese is substituted for the
butter. Mixture of cream and butter can be used.

c) Meat or Fish salad spreads – made from finely


chopped meat or fish that are spreadable. Seasons
should be checked carefully to make the spread
more stimulating to the appetite.

3. Garnish – any food item or combination of items


placed on top of the spread which usually gives color,
design, and texture or flavor accent to the canapé.

Guidelines for Assembling Canapés

Good mise en place is essential. In making canapés especially for


large functions, all bases, spreads and garnishes must be prepared
ahead of time so that final assembly may go quickly and smoothly.

69

All rights reserved. No part of this material may be reproduced or transmitted in any form or by any means - electronic or
mechanical including photocopying – without written permission from the DepEd Central Office. First Edition, 2016.
Assemble as close as possible to serving time. Bases quickly
become soggy, and spreads and garnishes dry out easily. After placing
them in a tray, cover them lightly with plastic and held for a short time
under refrigeration. Safe food handling and storage must be observed.

Select harmonious flavor combinations in spreads and garnish


such as:
A. Mustard and ham
B. Lemon butter and caviar

DEPED COPY
C. Pimiento cream cheese and sardines
D. Tuna salad and capers
E. Anchovy butter, hard cooked egg slice and olive

Make sure that at least one of the ingredients is spicy in flavor. A


bland canapé has little value as an appetizer.

Use high quality ingredients. Leftovers can be used for canapés,


but they must be carefully handled and stored to retain freshness.

Keep it simple. Simple meat arrangements are more attractive than


extravagant one. Be sure that canapés hold together and do not fall
apart in the customers hands.

Arrange canapés carefully and attractively on trays. Each tray


should carry an assortment of flavor and textures, so there is
something for every taste.

Cocktails

Cocktail appetizers are made of seafood or fruit, usually with a tart or


tangy sauce. These appetizers are always served chilled, often on a bed of
crushed ice.

Hors d’oeuvres are often served preceding a meal; they are served as the
food at cocktail parties involving alcoholic beverages.
a. Hot Hors d’oeuvres are served between the soup and fish course.
In today’s shortened menus, they are often served instead of hot
entrée. The size and richness depend upon the composition of
menu. Many hot hors d’oeuvres are suited for serving a small ala
carte dishes, and usually described as hot dish.
b. Cold hors d’oeuvres should stimulate appetite, and therefore
should always be served at the first course in the menu. There
are five types of cold hors d’oeuvres and they are served as
follows:
∙ Plate of Hors d’oeuvres may consist of shrimps, smoked
beef, poached egg, Spanish sardines and lettuce, sauce
