As part of our Design and Technology unit in Year 3 this term, we are creating healthy soups that the fishermen could take on trips with them.

Before we can create our soups we have talked about healthy ingredients and what we could put in our soups. As part of the preparation to make soup we talked about how to cut the vegetables we are going to use.

We have practised our cutting skills this week in preparation for making our soup.

We all had the opportunity to practise both our claw and bridge grips to make sure we could cut our vegetables safely and securely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We also had to decide which vegetables would be good for our soup. We discussed seasonality and which vegetables are available in the autumn season in England. We also tasted some vegetables so we could decide on which flavours we would like in our soup.

 

 

 

 

 

To create our soup we worked collaboratively to decide on a recipe including the vegetables we would use and the stock that would create the base of the soup.

When the soup was cooked we tasted and evaluated it to see if we had met the design brief and created a healthy soup for a fisherman.
