Recently the whole of Lower Sixth visited a local Cookery school at Little Portland Street near Oxford Circus.
At the start of the day we were given refreshments and introduced to each of the chefs including the Head chef Rosaline. Who explained the menu and the arrangements for the day, which included working in 6 groups of 5 students. We were shown how to make dough for our pizzas and after the demonstration set to work on them. After the dough was collected we were split up again into two groups one was in charge of making the salad to accompany the pizza and then the fruit salad for dessert and the other group was left to make the tomato sauce for the base of the pizza and the sweet treats of brownies and lemon cupcakes. We all then added our toppings, which included pepperoni, olives, tomatoes, mozzarella and Parmesan cheese. We waited half an hour for our pizzas during that time we started to eat the salad as a starter. When our pizzas were cooked we couldn’t wait to eat them! Later each table was given its own tray of brownies and lemon cupcakes, and one student was given a cake because it was their birthday. After our meal we cleaned the kitchen and were given certificates and the recipes that we had learnt that day, as well as the rest of our individual dough. Which led to some interesting stories the next day !! Bloggers Sarah Hashim ,Elizabeth Brodie Wicks and Zak Perry
