Who wants a free item at the Originals? All you need to do is to use the cooking skills we are teaching in our cooking classes at home, and you will earn a coupon for a free item at the Student Store. This week, the Ace Of Steel, Sizzle and Simmer practice chopping, dicing and mincing skills. To earn the coupon please follow the following steps:
- Watch the knife skills videos posted on the Cooking In Connections Website: https://blogs.4j.lane.edu/connectionscooking/ You will find a basic Knife Skills Video, Seeding and dicing a tomato video, chopping and onion video, and mincing garlic video.
- Follow the directions you see in the video. You do not have to chop dice or mince a tomato, onions or garlic… chop/dice/mince what ever food you want!
- Take a picture (or better, take a video) of you demonstrating the skill the way it is done in the videos posted on the site.
- Show Josh the picture or video. Note: You will earn an additional coupon if your picture or video is posted on your My Life portfolio when you show Josh.
Note: You do not have to be a student in Ace of Steel, Sizzle Or Simmer to take this challenge! Anyone in Connections can watch a video, take a picture and show Josh! Contest ends on Friday, April 8.
Couch To 5k students: Outstanding Job on Wednesday! Sunday, April 3 marks the first week of the Couch to 5k training program.
