Today at technicraft everyone made something in a jar, some people made apple sauce some made strawberry jam and the others made raspberry jam. I made raspberry jam, my partner was Eugene. First I got a pack of frozen raspberries and emptied it into the preserving pan. After that my partner Eugene boiled the raspberries on a stove with the heat on 100 degrees and we enabled it on fan forced. Next we put the jar that we are going to use for the jam into the oven on 100 degrees so that it wouldn't crack when we put the boiling hot jam into it. Following that we added two cups of sugar and ¾ of a teaspoon of tartaric acid with the sugar and the raspberries. We continued boiling it for 3 - 5 minutes and it started to look like runny jam. Eugene and I agreed to take it out of the stove and put the preserving pan on a pot stand to let it cool down, after two minutes we gently poured the jam into the jars. It was another new experience in cooking class. it was really fun making the jam and it was also fun to decorate the jars.

Technicraft Term 1 Week 2 Cooking
Today was the first day of technicraft in 2017, the year 8;s were doing cooking and the year 7s were doing science. In cooking class we made a diagram of a fridge and the things that are supposed to be inside of it, on the top of the fridge had milk and frozen drinks and on the bottom had raw vegetables, it was fun to make a diagram of a fridge. Next we had to choose something that we could make next week, I chose to make raspberry jam and my partner Eugene wanted to make raspberry jam too. After that we had to make a design of how the jar of the jam will look like, that was really fun to make, next we had to copy the recipe for raspberry jam, we also had to think of how long it will take to make it, I thought that it will take 10 - 15 minutes to make the jam. After that our teacher gave us an assessment that ask if we enjoyed making the design or not, I had fun making the design so I wrote yes. Unfortunately it was time to go back to school, I was really sad because I didn’t get to complete my assessment, but we had to go back.


The first day of cooking was fun, I hope we can make more diagrams next week and I hope my raspberry jam turns out to be a very yummy jam for the family.
