Sauce making
To make a proper sauce, one must use the correct proportions of ingredients as stated in the recipe, follow the recipe accurately, ensure the sauce has the proper consistency whether it be lumpy or smooth, season it well and taste before serving, and serve it at the correct temperature. An additional tip is to place dampened greaseproof paper over the sauce if keeping it warm to prevent a skin from forming on the surface.
Minerals
This document discusses micro-nutrients and their importance for health. It defines micro-nutrients as minerals that are needed in small amounts but are essential. The most important micro-nutrients include calcium, iron, phosphorus, iodine, fluorine, sodium, and potassium. Each micro-nutrient is described in terms of its sources, functions in the body, and potential deficiencies. Water is also discussed as being essential for the body, comprising 70% of the human body. Water is needed to make cells and fluids, carry nutrients, remove waste, regulate temperature, and is a source of minerals.
Nutrition
The document discusses the study of nutrition, defining nutrients as substances that can be digested and used by the body. It covers the six major nutrients - proteins, fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, and water - describing their composition, sources, functions, and requirements in a balanced diet. Recommended daily intakes of each nutrient are provided.
Raising agents
The document discusses different raising agents used in baking, including air, bread soda, baking powder, and yeast. Air is introduced into mixtures through techniques like sieving flour or creaming butter and sugar. Bread soda and baking powder work through a chemical reaction where an acid and alkali produce carbon dioxide gas. When baked, the carbon dioxide expands and causes dough or batter to rise. Yeast works by microorganisms producing carbon dioxide that makes dough rise in the oven through the same process.
Pastry making
This document provides instructions for making pastry and filling an apple pie. It involves sifting flour and salt, rubbing in fat, adding water to form dough, kneading and chilling the dough, rolling it out and fitting it into a pie dish, coring and slicing apples to fill the dish with sugar, sealing the edges with a fork.
Water soluble vitamins
Vitamin C and several B vitamins are water soluble vitamins. Vitamin C is found in fruits and vegetables and supports general health, healthy gums, and wound healing. The B vitamin group includes B1, B2, B3, B6, B12, folic acid, and biotin. The B vitamins are important for releasing energy from food, supporting the nervous system, and aiding growth and development. Deficiencies can result in conditions like beriberi, pellagra, and neural tube defects.
Vegetables
This document provides information on different types of vegetables including their classification, nutritional value, buying, storing, preparing, cooking methods and preservation. It divides vegetables into four main categories: roots, greens, fruit vegetables, and pulses/legumes. All vegetables are low in calories and fat but high in vitamins, minerals and fiber. Proper preparation, cooking and storage methods help retain maximum nutritional value. Canning, freezing and drying are common preservation techniques used to make vegetables available year-round with advantages and disadvantages for each.
Milk the complete food
- Milk comes primarily from cows but also from sheep and goats. Soy milk is used by vegetarians.
- Milk provides protein, fat, carbohydrates, vitamins, and minerals like calcium. It is especially important for growth, repair, and bone health.
- Milk undergoes processes like homogenization, pasteurization, and ultra-heat treatment to kill bacteria and extend shelf life. It is stored refrigerated in clean containers.

Presentation 3 marlene_schwartz
This document discusses how public policy can help improve children's diets through optimal defaults when personal responsibility is not enough. It provides evidence that the food environment influences eating behaviors and that accessibility and variety lead to increased consumption of unhealthy foods. Studies show that removing unhealthy options in schools decreases consumption without compensation at home. Creating healthy defaults, like serving fruit instead of juice, can significantly increase healthy eating. School wellness policies have led to some improvements but greater changes may require state standards and oversight. Food marketing also influences children's preferences and consumption.

It outlines the research study component of the leaving certificate history syllabus and provides suggestions for teachers on helping students improve their skills at each stage. This includes locating and critically examining sources, developing structured written responses, and preparing for the leaving certificate research study requirements of producing an outline plan, evaluating sources, and extended essay. Sample exemplar materials and marking schemes are also included for reference.
Water
Water comes from rainfall and is treated through processes like settling, filtering, softening, chlorination and fluoridation before being piped into homes. The water supply enters homes through main pipes and service pipes, with the freshest water coming from the cold kitchen tap. Other taps get water from a storage tank, usually in the attic. Hard water can cause issues like limescale but tastes better, and is softened through adding chloride of lime during treatment.
The work triangle
The document discusses the concept of the work triangle. The work triangle refers to the three key elements needed to complete any task: tools, materials, and people. These three elements must be present and work together effectively for a job to be finished successfully.
Safety in the home
This document discusses home safety and common accidents that occur in the home. It provides information on preventing accidents such as falls, burns, cuts and poisonings. Safety tips are provided for fire safety, medicine storage, and first aid treatment for minor injuries. The most important aspects of first aid for serious injuries are also outlined, such as calling for help, checking breathing and pulse, and treating for shock. A well-stocked first aid kit is recommended.
Modern features of a cooker
This document describes various features that may be included in kitchen appliances such as cookers and ovens, including dual grill/rings that allow using half the cooking area, double ovens with a main oven and top oven, automatic timers to turn ovens on and off, fan ovens that circulate heated air, ceramic hobs with heat-resistant glass tops, halogen rings that heat instantly, self-cleaning ovens, split-level cookers where the hob and oven are separate, and ignition buttons to light gas hobs instead of matches.
Lighting
Good lighting is important for safety, hygiene, and preventing eye strain. A home uses both natural lighting from windows and skylights as well as various artificial lighting such as incandescent, fluorescent, and compact fluorescent bulbs. Proper lighting safety involves using the correct bulbs and fixtures, adequate lighting for tasks, and switches located outside of danger areas like bathrooms. When replacing a light bulb, one should turn off the power first, allow an old bulb to cool, fit a new bulb of the correct wattage, and test that the light works.
Hygiene in the home
The document discusses hygiene standards in the home, including ensuring clean water and efficient drainage, good ventilation and lighting to prevent dampness, easily cleanable surfaces and rooms, careful waste disposal, and regularly disinfecting sinks, toilets and drains. It also notes there are two types of household waste - organic waste that breaks down naturally and inorganic waste that does not break down but can be recycled.
Heating
Central heating, partial/background heating, and individual heaters are three common methods of heating a home. Central heating uses a boiler to heat water that circulates through radiators to keep the home between 16-20 degrees Celsius, and also provides hot water. Partial/background heating uses electric storage heaters to provide gentle background heat. Individual heaters heat each room separately using methods like a fireplace, stove, or electric heater. Proper insulation is important to prevent up to 75% of heat loss through walls, roof, windows, doors and floors using materials like still air, wool, or polystyrene that are poor conductors of heat.
Electricity 2
Electricity is generated at power stations from sources like coal, oil, peat, and water. It is distributed to homes through cables and consumer units, then brought to appliances via wires in plugs and flexes. Most appliances have three wires - a live wire (brown) bringing electricity to the appliance, a neutral wire (blue) taking the return current, and an earth wire (green/yellow) that brings current safely to the earth if a fault occurs. Fuses and circuit breakers are safety devices that melt or disconnect electricity in the case of overloading or short circuits to prevent fires.
Designing a home
This document discusses key aspects of home design, including:
1. A home provides physical needs like shelter as well as emotional and social needs.
2. Housing types are influenced by factors like cost, size, and location, and include houses, apartments, bedsits, and mobile homes.
3. Good design is functional, safe, durable, and attractive. Design elements include color, texture, line, shape, and pattern which impact the atmosphere.
Design process 2
The design process involves 7 steps: 1) Identifying the brief to design a bedroom/study for a teenager, 2) Analyzing the brief to determine what must be included, 3) Researching interior design ideas through books, magazines, and store visits to collect samples, 4) Identifying possible furniture layouts, color schemes, and flooring and heating options, 5) Choosing a final solution after considering all options, 6) Creating a scaled floor plan drawing, and 7) Presenting the final plan with details of the color scheme, furnishings, flooring, lighting, and heating system.
Design process 1
The design process involves identifying the brief, analysing it through research, and choosing a solution to implement through planning and taking action.
Fruit
This document contains a word search, matching exercises, fill-in-the-blank questions, and true/false questions about various fruits including apples, oranges, bananas, grapes, peaches, kiwis, pineapples, plums, pomegranates, lemons, strawberries, nectarines, and berries. The questions test identification, properties, and grouping of different fruits.
Milk
The document is a worksheet asking students to name animals that produce milk, types of milk, uses of milk and their examples, and to outline the pasteurization process, nutritional value, and homogenization of milk. The student must name cows, goats, sheep, and humans as milk producing animals and list six types of milk, four uses of milk with examples, and describe homogenization. It also asks the student to discuss why milk is good for teeth and the nutritional value of milk.
Skin poster guidelines
The document provides guidelines for using a skin poster to teach students about the structure and composition of skin. The poster will be used to help students identify and label the different components of skin, as well as define the functions of each component. The teacher is instructed to introduce the topic enthusiastically, point out each skin component on the poster and explain its function. Labels will then be placed over the components for students to identify, after which the teacher will check students' understanding by asking questions about the skin's structure.
The skin
This document contains questions about the structure and functions of skin. It tests knowledge about skin layers like the epidermis and dermis, parts like sweat glands, hair follicles and pores, and how diet and sun exposure impact skin health. Multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank questions cover topics like what foods are good or bad for skin, the role of sweat glands, and describing skin layers, cells, and other anatomical features.
