The Good Rabbi's Blog

I apologise for the delay in getting some updates on. This past week was very heavy. I had my knife skills final on Monday (where I sacrificed a portion of my thumb due to a dumbass that couldn't say "excuse me"), and my written skills mid-term and practical exams on Thursday. My practical exam consisted of two soups (Potato Leek, and consommé) as well as three sauces (Mornay, which is a modified béchamel, Bordelaise, and Hollandaise). I scored pretty well on all fronts. Next week I move into egg cookery, where we do everything from omelets, to pasta, to flans and custards. Stay tuned... :-)
