Year 2 - Trio of crostini

Food Technology - Mastering Kitchen Skills with a Trio of Crostini!

Year 2 children became chefs as they carefully followed a recipe to create a delicious Trio of Crostini.

As they prepared their toppings, they applied their scientific knowledge of food groups, using a combination of vegetables, dairy, and a protein that was new to many—tofu!

They explored essential food preparation techniques, mixing ingredients to combine flavours and textures. Using a table knife with confidence, they practised the bridge and claw techniques to safely cut a variety of foods into equal-sized pieces. This lesson developed their fine motor skills and also deepened their understanding of balanced eating, building confidence in the kitchen.
