Daily Activity 8 October 2019

Assalamualaikum. Back again on my blog. Today is our second day of practice. Previously posted I said that yesterday we also prepared for lobster plate. So we competed in the same class where we had to present lobster as attractive as possible, the winner was determined based on the most likes and also the ratings of our testers, the lecturers on our campus. Yesterday we prepared for lobster. For this lobster competition we are working in groups. We are divided into 5 groups where this group is our business group.

At 10.00 we had to present our lobster to the testers. So today we all came quickly so we could serve our dishes on time. For my own group we will made "Sousvide Lobster Fettucini With Mornay Sauce". Lobster is one ingredient that must be handled appropriately. When lobster is not processed properly, it can cause lobster meat to be very bitter and not tasty for consumption. So my group decided to process lobster with the sousvide method where this method can make lobster meat soft and also reach the right level of maturity.

In addition we also serve our lobster with mornay sauce. So mornay sauce is a derivative of bechamel sauce where Mornay sauce is mixed with gruyere cheese, and parmesan. To enhance the appearance of lobster, we provided a touch of color from coral tuile and pure green beans. After we finished made lobster, each of the groups took photos as interesting as possible and posted them to social media especially on Instagram. Then each of the groups brought the dishes to the testers. Just arrived at the announcement of the champion, the group that managed to get the champion was my group, yeyyy.
