During DT this term we have been looking at seasonal pizza products.

We started by looking at a healthy plate and the different types of food groups that we need to eat on a daily basis. We looked at how we need to make sure that we are eating foods from all the food groups and that there are some foods that we should eat in moderation. We looked at different food packaging and made decisions about whether they were healthy foods or not.

Then we taste tested different ingredients. We used ingredients that were the colours of Christmas (red, green and white). We tasted the following ingredients and rated them on taste, appearance, smell and texture - bagel, wrap, cherry tomatoes, red pepper, red onion, cranberry sauce, pesto, basil, green pepper, gherkins, mozzarella, turkey, mushrooms, goat's cheese and black olives. 

We then decided which ingredients we wanted to use on our pizza.

Our next lesson focused on designing our pizzas to look like wreaths.

Then we researched how to write recipes and looked at a recipe for pizza wreaths. Then we used this information to create our own recipes.

Stay tuned for the second half of our pizza wreaths tomorrow!
