Culinary class has been busy this week learning knife cuts while making mirepoix and learning how to fabricate chickens. Today they used the trim of the chicken and their mirepoix to make homemade chicken stock. We now have a lot of homemade ingredients ready to use for upcoming labs...and quite a few new skills as well.
