The Tomato Book: How to Grow and Cook Tomatoes
by Gail Harland

Conclusion

As a conclusion , we have learn a lot throughout this subject and this semester. We have learn to create new recipe and new dish by combining unique combination of ingredients. If we were to perfect a dish , we have to be patient , consistent and most of all innovative. Nonstop experimenting with new ideas and varieties of ingredients. We also should keep participating in events in the futures.

Recommendation

We recommend the faculty should provide a much more spacious booth and does not require teams to share 1 booth. Our kitchen should be well built and fully equipped.

Problem Faced

Actually we did not face much problem at all. We only have problem while making our flyers and the booth/station was kinda small. So that is all the problem we faced.

Activity

Conclusion : The jem turn out to be not thick enough although it had been chill for quite some time. The taste need to be improve in the next class.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

Today our group decided not to do wasabi konyaku because majoriti people in our class are not familiar with wasabi taste especially with konyaku. So today we are going to do only the tamarillo jem and this time we have to make the taste better and the texture to be thicker. Last week we did not blend the fruit and we mix the seed together. This week we are gonna blend the fruit then remove the seed. The outcome is so much better compare to last week , so is the taste.

Once our food is ready we bring it to our station at student lounge. Some make their own poster and some got very nice flyers. Some bands and VIP judges was invited to this event. Students was also invited and some came for the event. They also manage to taste each of our food and get to comment about it. The event went well and these are the winner for this event.

Objective

Our objective throughout the learning of this subject is to be creative , innovative and consistent. We try to create new recipe with combination of new ingredients. We have come up with this tamarrilo jam. This recipe is healthy and suitable for everyone. It also can be use to replace certain fillings for certain recipes.

Introduction

1st I introduce our group. Our group consist of 3 member which is me (Tai) , Sharul and Ammar. The product that we are perfecting for the event is Tamarillo Jam. Basicly this tomato is extreme rare in Malaysia but it is widely use in Australia. In Malaysia if we ask around not many of them know about this tomato. What we gonna do is to get this tomato from Cameron Highland and turn it into a delicious jam. It can be serve with bread or cakes/muffin fillings.
