Lesson 1

Sandwiches

Sandwiches may be made from every kind of bread, fresh or brown (toasted). They can be made in a variety of shapes and with an almost endless assortment of fillings. They may be garnished with vegetables, potatoes and salads.

When making sandwiches 100% of personal and kitchen hygiene must be observed because they can be easily contaminated.

Hygiene Tips

1) All parts of the person liable to come into contact with food must be kept as     clean as possible.

2) All clothing must be kept as clean as possible.

3) All cuts must be covered with H2o proof dressing.

4) Spitting is forbidden.

5) Try as much as possible not to touch your nose, ear, mouth etc.

6) Ensure that your work area is very clean.

All green salads and other food eaten raw should be well washed since some of them grow in water e.g. watercress, and could be contaminated by animals.
