Transcript

00:02 Good day, my name is Miss Mary.

00:13 Today we'll be talking on home economics,

00:16 JSS 3 class, we'll be continuing

00:19 with the topic preparation, packaging,

00:22 and marketing of food items.

00:24 Last time we stopped at the duties of food sellers

00:29 in the society, but today we'll be starting

00:32 from preparation of small food, snacks, and drinks.

00:37 So what are the objectives of the class for today?

00:41 The objectives are number three,

00:44 prepare and serve as simple snacks and drink,

00:47 and number four, give three, marketing principles.

00:51 Now let's go into the preparation of snacks.

00:55 Now today we'll be talking about donuts,

00:58 how to prepare donuts.

01:00 For donuts, we have this ingredient,

01:02 what we'll be making use of our number one,

01:05 125 gram of plain flour.

01:08 We have teaspoon sugar, 10 gram of fats.

01:13 You can make use of your measuring tool

01:16 or sometimes people call it butter.

01:19 We have leveled teaspoon yeast.

01:22 We have a pinch of salt, five tablespoons milk.

01:26 How do we do that?

01:29 How do we make donuts?

01:31 You sieve the flour and salt into a mixing bowl,

01:34 rub the fat and yeast into the flour,

01:37 add the sugar, beating egg, beating egg

01:40 is the egg that you have mixed together.

01:43 You have the milk or water.

01:46 Mix well and turn into flour, pour it.

01:49 Need well until the dough is elastic and smooth.

01:53 You need, how do you need?

01:55 You use your hand.

01:56 You need it on the flat board.

01:58 You need your dough until it is elastic and smooth.

02:02 You then return to the bowl.

02:05 The dough, you return it to the bowl,

02:07 cover with a damp tea towel,

02:09 put in the warm place until the dough rises

02:12 to about double its size.

02:14 Why do we put the dough in the warm place?

02:16 Because the yeast needs a warm place to work

02:20 in order to work well.

02:22 So, and this is the first proven.

02:24 You then turn the dough into the flour board

02:28 and need very likely, again,

02:30 after you have covered it and the dough has risen,

02:33 you take the dough into the flour board

02:35 and need very likely, this time around,

02:38 you don't add too much pressure.

02:40 You shape and leave to rise in a warm place for a while again.

02:44 And this is the second proven.

02:47 You bake in a moderate oven for 30 minutes.

02:51 Then you have your doughnuts.

02:53 Some fry their doughnuts while some bake their doughnuts.

02:57 Now we have drinks.

02:58 Today we'll be talking about the coffee drink.

03:01 Coffee seeds are obtained from matured coffee plants.

03:05 The coffee seeds, that is the base, are roasted,

03:09 milled and bottled.

03:10 It contains caffeine, which adds as a might,

03:14 stimulants to the adds and nerves.

03:17 Coffee has no food value, yes.

03:20 Some people like taking coffee, but it has no food value.

03:24 It is therefore important to drink it with sugar and milk.

03:28 It is not recommended for young people

03:32 because of the caffeine it has.

03:35 Coffee is good for the whole.

03:38 Now how do we prepare coffee drink?

03:41 This spoon of instant coffee powder does what we need.

03:45 We have a cup of boiling water, milk, sugar or only to test.

03:50 How do you do that?

03:51 You boil water.

03:53 After boiling the water, put the coffee into the cup.

03:56 Add the boiling water, add sugar or only to test.

03:59 Then add your milk if you desire.

04:02 Let's go into fruit drinks.

04:05 Fruit drinks are made from different types of fruits.

04:08 They can be made into fruit drinks or juice.

04:11 Fruit drinks contain sugar or syrup,

04:13 why fruit juice as no sweetener is natural.

04:18 Sweetable fruit for drinks and juices are orange.

04:21 We have the lime, lemon, apples, pineapple,

04:24 watermelon, mango, cashew and so on.

04:28 Now we have guidelines for making fruit drinks.

04:31 A fruit drink can be made from one type of fruit.

04:34 Yes, you can make use of just one type of fruit.

04:37 When more fruits are used, a punch is produced.

04:40 Yes, when you make use of two or more fruits,

04:43 you have what is called punch.

04:45 In this case, one of the fruits should give a sharp taste.

04:49 Imagine you want to make use of two fruits like lime and lemon.

04:53 The two combinations are not too good

04:55 because they are giving a sharp taste.

04:58 But when you combine your lime with pineapple,

05:01 definitely you'll be getting something nice.

05:04 Guidelines for making fruit drinks.

05:07 A fruit drink can be made from one type of fruit.

05:10 Yes, you can have one fruit to make a drink.

05:13 When more fruits are used, a punch is produced.

05:16 That means that when you use one or two more fruits,

05:20 then you have a punch.

05:21 In this case, one of the fruits should give a sharp taste.

05:25 You wouldn't want to combine a lime and lemon

05:28 because you want to make a fruit drink.

05:31 Because the two are having a sharp taste.

05:35 You'll not be comfortable with what you are taking.

05:38 Now, never add hot syrup of juice.

05:41 Hot syrup can destroy the vitamins present in the juice.

05:45 You don't just add anything to fruit drinks

05:48 that you are making because we have some vitamins

05:51 that are very light.

05:53 And if you don't handle them with care,

05:55 you won't have them again in your drink.

05:58 Fruit drinks are better served chilled.

06:01 You don't serve your fruit drink hot.

06:04 Put drinks in plastic and bottles, never in meta containers.

06:08 People make this mistake of putting their fruit

06:11 in meta containers.

06:12 This can alter the flavor of the drink

06:15 because there are some chemicals that

06:17 is being emitted from the meta that we use to present our drinks.

06:22 Now, another drink that we have here is watermelon drink.

06:26 What are those ingredients that you need?

06:30 You need one or half watermelon.

06:34 You need two cups of clean water and sugar syrup.

06:38 How do you do that?

06:39 You wash and cut the watermelon, scrub the freshly part

06:43 and remove all the seeds.

06:44 You don't use your seed when you want

06:46 to make your watermelon drinks.

06:48 Blank the watermelon during hardened water,

06:51 lead to at a time.

06:52 That means that when you are blading the watermelon,

06:54 you had lead to, or sometimes you don't even had any water.

06:58 And when you are adding the water,

07:00 it should be lead to at a time.

07:03 Add sugar syrup, strain the mixture into a bowl.

07:07 Chill and serve.

07:08 Add sugar syrup and chill.

07:11 Some people may just add the syrup just once,

07:15 but when you test it and you are not comfortable with it,

07:18 you can still add your sugar syrup.

07:20 Now, let's go into our main meal preparation.

07:24 Cooking and serving of meals is an important function

07:27 of every old manager.

07:29 For anyone who is taking care of his or her home,

07:33 the most important thing to do to learn

07:35 is how to make and serve a meal.

07:39 Me preparation, cooking and serving

07:48 Just because you want to give us something nice,

07:50 a meal that is good.

07:51 And the look is not even appetizing enough.

07:55 That is not a total package or total preparation

07:58 and serving of a meal.

08:00 Now, we have the guidelines for cooking and serving meals.

08:03 Plan what's to cook.

08:05 Out and went to cook.

08:07 Meals should be adequate.

08:09 You don't want to cook for 10 people.

08:11 And after cooking, then the food is just meant for three people.

08:16 That means that your food is not adequate for the numbers

08:19 of people you want to cook for.

08:20 Consider the needs of family members

08:22 in terms of their age, occupation, and head status.

08:26 You don't give someone that is old in the family,

08:30 a food meant for a three-year-old kid.

08:35 List and select food containing different nutrients.

08:38 Use foods in season.

08:41 Make sure that all tastes is required

08:43 and within reach and clean.

08:46 You can't just imagine you've started preparation of food

08:49 and something that you need urgently is in another state.

09:16 Keep the kitchen tidy before during and after use.

09:20 Don't mess up your kitchen even while cooking.

09:23 Stop all leftover food stalls and ingredients properly.

09:27 We don't want to see litters of our food stalls

09:31 all around the kitchen.

09:32 Clean all the gadgets used for cooking.

09:37 Now, the simple meal that we are serving today

09:40 is meat, which is beef, jolof rice.
