The Menu
- At least 12 items total (any type of menu item)
- Written like you would see in your foodservice operation, it must include at least the name of the dish, brief description, and selling price.
The Recipes
- Select 4 menu item and create a standardized menu recipe, it must include at least the menu item name, ingredients, method of preparation, yield, and serving description.
Food Safety (bullet points are fine here)
- Develop a food safety checklist (mini HACCP) for two menu items
- The check list should include using the HACCP approach to prevent foodborne illness
For example, if you had chicken Florentine as an item. You would detail the temperature the chicken should be received by, stored at, and cooked to. This should be done for all TCS ingredients in the two menu items.
